Do NOT bid on this razor

I once purchased this very razor and sent it back. It's been dropped at least twice, (not by me) that's why it's a "tiny" bit stiff. It will shave fine but there is quite a lot of interference when opening the doors. It's not dirt or gunk as I cleaned it, I just didn't want to risk trying to unbend some of the parts.

Don't get me wrong, it might be worth twenty quid but not over double which is what I paid.

Shit...I should have just sold it and doubled my money.

I seen it and thought about it then seen your post on here and deleted it from the "watching" section. Had no idea it would got for that. Did they declare it a "bit stiff" when you bought it?

No, it was a bit mucky but after I cleaned it for her and returned it she certainly pulled out all the stops.
