The price of razors, what's all on our minds, has even struck the "Gillette Speedy" guy, who normally starts his razor offerings at $6.99 - they're now priced to go at a starting bid of $9.99! More of the fun of watching eBay ... (really been interesting lately, especially the sellers who list razors as "All Fatboys!" when there's not even one in there). Ahhh, I think the days of yore when you could routinely - that's the operative word here - pick up deals on the 'Bay are gone (yes, you can get an *occasional* deal, not MOST of the time, though). Same thing happened with vinyl in the 90s - used to be you could pick up all kinds of deals in Goodwills and at garage sales. Ebay drove those prices up too. Yeah, we can get 'em, but the sellers drive up the prices as fast as oil companies... So the Faustian question: is it good that we can get a wider range of offerings at the risk - or, really, the promise - of increased prices?
