Hiya,
Seems like recently there's a bunch more old DE blades being offered for sale on ebay. Looks like 4-5 different Wilkinsons (two that I really like), the usual Personna74s (crazy prices as you'd expect), some old Schick Plus Platinums....the late 1960s-early 1970s ones before the blue dispensers, and some interesting sounding UK made Gillettes that I've never tried.
I'm watching a few sales but most likely won't win any, mainly because the blades will probably sell for around $1 each (when you figure in the shipping). Yeah, that looks to be about the going rate, although deals can still be had if you're patient.
No sense in mentioning which ones work best for me, since they may not perform the same for everyone (and probably won't). There's a couple autions though that consist of some of my very favorites and it's gonna be tough laying off bidding on those. If I didn't have a few already put away in the arsenal, I'd probably bite the bullet and grab some. Heh, of course you can't have too many favorite blades I guess.
