A little help with the ID Gentlemen? Thanks... And, just for fun: What should I have paid for it

Let me know if I missed the shot you need to ID and I will try to remedy it!

This came in today:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=280361411520

Wasn't able to snap pics, I will later, however it was quite a good deal. The case is a near-total-loss as the leather is disintegrating but the razor itself is in gorgeous shape. No plate loss, just a bit of the gold wash worn off of a corner of a silo door. I wouldn't call it minty but it's better than I expected and is 100% mechanically.

A bunch of ebay-straights:

A NOS Hoffritz 5/8 with "Spezial Work" on the blade.
A Giesen&Forsthoff 4/8 Timor.
And finally, a Jonathan Crookes 5/8.

Is anybody willing to help me date and value them? These are my first ebay pickups, so I'd like to learn.

I got it pretty bad this week.

I was in Dallas for the 4th and decided to hit up a couple antique malls.

Scored a literally unused complete Rolls Razor kit for 9 dollars, and a Puma 88 straight razor for $14.95.

I got an original Old Spice glass ceramic mug, an ancient shave brush as well.

Then, my brother decided to give me his AoS Sandalwood set complete with all three products and another genuine badger brush.

Then, I get home to find a package on my front porch that was delivered while I was gone. A Shavemac 21mm, a tube a Speick, and a tub of Tobs Mr. Taylor.

Needless to say, it's been a good weekend, and my den is filling up quick. No thanks to you guys

I *think* Scotty said he was going to throw me a case... unless I misread his intentions and it was a very kindly worded sales pitch
