Step away from the Monitor.
There...
Now, go to the review section, find the razors. Read the reviews. Decide which you would like to try. Then go to the B/S/T.
Easy, isn't it?

Talk of ADs is all over this website. I suspect it wasn't that we didn't tell you, but that you didn't take us seriously. Now do you believe us?
Remember to make smart purchases, and if you don't like something you can sell it on the b/s/t. But seriously, do A LOT of lurking and research: it makes your purchases smarter and more satisfying.
Or you can simply embrace your RAD. I did. Razors aren't that expensive, so I went nuts for awhile and picked up one of any model that interested me. I've got about 20 now and the RAD is mostly dead. There are a few I'd still like to acquire, but I haven't been trying too hard or spending much.
I'll probably slim down the collection sooner or later once I spend a week or two with each razor and decide whether it's good enough to hang onto.

Yes, just beware the SBAD. Seriously. Now, don't say I didn't warn you.
A classic case of an AD. There is no treatment available, save giving in to it.
There are a lot worse things that you could be doing with your money.

Wait until you get the straight razor bug. There's razors, strops, paddles, sharpening stones, etc...
I've actually heard that the cure to AD is to give all your razors away and to start anew.

We didn't think we'd have to tell you since we're leading by example. You are in good company.
All that does is start them up all over again, as well as providing guys like you with free razors.

I am currently bidding on two flare tips and a blue tip... sigh....
Nobody told you because it's actually part of the initiation. Congrats, you're in. Soon Phil will PM you for your address and send you the login to enter the supersecret AD forum that doesn't even show up on your thread menu. Yet.

BTW, Firefox has the "Refresh Every" add-on, which does it for you. Makes the refresh jitters of AD seem much less like an addiction. But if you set it for less than 30 seconds, there's a popup every 1 minute that says "Get help."
Firstly, you really aren't supposed to post links to live auctions, and secondly, why would you want to alert others to items you are bidding on?
One of the symptoms. Or a cry for help, for someone to outbid him. The boy has it bad.
