Blue Lady Gillette, Very Good Condition - $19.00 CONUS, PM for international. Sold! Thanks B&B!
Small plating loss on one endcap, small residual grunge that I missed on my initial cleanup in TTO grooves and one one star. Other than that, she's a pretty lady.

Fat Handled Tech. Poor Condition - $4.50 CONUS, PM for international.
I picked this razor up at a local antique store for $6.00 with some serious pitting on the head. This was during my first week of wet shaving, newbie RAD had the best of me. Out of experimentation I dremeled the pitting out of the head and tried a bit on the handle to see how it would turn out. "Maybe I can strip the plating off and..." that's about as far as I got with it before realizing it was a terrible idea. Thus, this is simply an opportunity for someone to try the famed Fat Handled Tech/feather combo on the cheap before shelling out for a pretty one.

Gold Ball Handled Tech, Good condition - $8.00 CONUS, PM for international. Sold! Thanks B&B!
Some discoloration on the handle, some lacquer loss on the head, some plating loss on second piece, overall plating is mostly intact. Good shaver.

Schick Injector - Good Condition, $7.25 CONUS, PM for international.
Another one of my newbie RAD purchases, rescued from the bay only to find the head was a little too wobbly to hold the blade properly. I had posted about trying to take it apart and clean it, assuming that's what the previous user had tried to do, wound up giving up after minimal effort. Some lacquer loss on head and spine of razor, some crud I couldn't reach on initial cleanup. If you can put her head right, I'd bet she'd give a solid shave.

GEM 1912, Shaver/Good Condition, $7.00 CONUS, PM for international.
I've come across a prettier, ornate-handled 1912 so this one goes on the block.

PM sent on ball-end tech

These are great razors at great prices. That Fat Handled Tech doesn't look bad. I shaved with one tonight using a Feather Blade as suggested by Darjeeling, and it was one of the smoothest, closest shaves I've ever had. And the GEM is another razor I tried this week for the first time. Two times, actually. The first shave was okay. The second was BBS and lasted longer through the day than most other shaves. Someone should snag these if only to see for yourself how good these are!

I'd like to add that while the Fat Handled Tech is in poor aesthetic condition, the head is smooth and even and will NOT catch, nick, cut, scuff your soon to be BBS face. I've given it a lot of testing to ensure it didn't catch, nick, cut, scuff both forearm and cheek before putting it on the BST.
