Oh my, that’s a nice problem to have and should be worth a fair few quid but then I take it you paid a fair few quid? Lovely razors - arguably the best of the Techs if, I presume, it has the flat, slotted bottom. My favourite! Ooh, personally I’d keep it as a collectible/heirloom but then I already have the same model. If I didn’t, I’m not sure I could keep my mitts off it. I’d think it’d lain all those years just waiting for little old me, dive in and reduce its value by half!Hopefully, should be here by tomorrow, a 'new-old-stock' Gillette tech, still with the original cellophane wrap, bakelite box seems in excellent condition, some original blades. I 'won' aka paid too much for it on e-bay. Probably because the bidding went mental in the last 4 minutes, doubling the final cost. If anyone else was bidding, sorry, but it just seemed too good to be true! I'm hoping I'm not regretting it when it arrives!
Serious question though, if it is completely unused as described, do I use it?
My dad reckons I should keep it as a collectible, but I bought it to use it because of the number of techs I've seen in SOTD and the comments about it's performance. So fellas, what's it to be?
If that’s a U2 date code, lock your doors, mate - the Gairdner might be calling!That’s a great snatch ! And beautiful presentation too ! I did enjoy the black beauty in the newbie pass around box - it is gold plated one there
