    Default $ worth of this set

    I am trying to get honest opinions about what my set is worth here. There razor has a very tiny crack at the top of the handle. All the plating is very good, especially for being gold plated and this old. The case is the downfall with it being torn up a bit.

    No cracks, an unused soap stick, a(seemingly) unused travel brush, decent plating for such an old piece, and the box isn't falling apart?

    A good bit. Nice set Scotty.
    Cheers,

    Kyle

    Nice find! Looks to be unused, right down to the soap and brush!

    Scott, can't help you with the price but even with the torn case and the cracked handle i think its a very nice set. With careful placement i am sure it would look great in a collection. Congrats!

    Thanks for you input Dave. I was thinking around this myself. I think the brush plays a big factor.

    I didn't want to post in the B/S/T thread but around here I have to say this:

    How come the soap has lasted 70+ years?
