What are the chances that this Gillette Goodwill NEW is actually unused NOS?
Possibly NOS?

None, IMO.

Apart from the blades, that are from the 50s, its general condition ( which is not bad at all) does not look like NOS.

That's what I figured. Flea-bay seller had condition listed as New.
I'll just say that if you feel comfortable paying the price they're asking, go for it. IMO it is not NOS, but the condition seems to be very decent.
Don't ask me what is a good price btw, we can't discuss that here.

Thanks Edgar!
I think the seller was just quoting the Gillette material. Recently, there have been a number of misnomers on eBay with Slims called FBs and other errors. A while ago one individual on the bay described a Red Tip as a FB.

Oh yeah. I've seen listings for a "Slim Fatboy tech"! Lol!

Hi,
My favorite descriptions are Regus and Patoff!

Yes, I was surprised to see how many posts come up if you do a search for "Gillette Regus."
Those Gillette Regus are extremely rare, at least the sellers seem to think so ...

And when you add the Patoff it becomes even more valuable.
I saw that listed too and I wondered. Let us know how it is if you buy it.
No offense to the OP, but do you realize that the model of this razor is the NEW? So if the seller said it is a NEW, they really are being totally accurate. That doesn't at all mean that it is new, as in NOS.
Just checking. 
And agree . zero chance it's NOS.

I agree. It has been well taken care of, but not even close to new.No offense to the OP, but do you realize that the model of this razor is the NEW? So if the seller said it is a NEW, they really are being totally accurate. That doesn't at all mean that it is new, as in NOS.
