I've went to the 2 local flea markets in my area and have not even come close to finding any DE Razors. I've been wanting to find a Fatboy for the $4 price everyone seems to find so commonly in their area. I'll not pay the minimum $40-50 for one that isn't in great shape on ebay or on the forum. It seems the ones posted on the forum are $40-$50 missing paint and have brassing but still sell in less than 10 minutes. Also looking for birthdate razor from 72 Q4 and 51 Q4 for a family member. I thought I would at least find a few battered up ones but the closest thing I came was a stand where the man had about 4-5 cheap straights, and he was more than clueless when I asked about "Double Edge or old style razors that were popular in the 50s-60s". He was probably in his late 50s-early 60s so that worries me even more about future hunts.
This weekend, I'm planning on going to 2 more that are a little over an hour drive from me and a bit larger in size. Are there any tips the veterans can offer?
