Three Gillette Slim Adjustables FS - GONE

Messages

Hi All,

Having a bit of a clear out of my stash - purging all the duplicates.

Today I have on offer three Gillette Slim's all of similar condition. Prices include UK postage, international post will be done @ cost.

H1 1962 - £20.00 - Pending amateur
L1 1966 - £20.00 - Pending Dandy
H3 1962 - £20.00 - pending press

All are in good working condition - both in terms of the adjuster & silo doors. I will try to mention all faults as I see them.

I have repainted the numbers on ALL of the razors.

Payment is by PayPal Gift or BACS (details on request). If you are interested in a razor, please REPLY to this post - I prefer to keep my sales open to prevent any misunderstandings.

First off is a the H 1 (first quarter of 1962). I'm looking for £20.00

The razor is in good condition.
- There is no brassing at all.
- The head of the razor is very bright (looks better than pictures)

Faults
- There is a minute alignment issue with one of the doors (I'm just being picky) 0.1mm
- The handle is a bit dull on the TTO opener.
- There is some light water spots on the top of the handle which I could not (reach to) polish out.

Other than the above, very tidy razor.

Next up we have L 1 which is the first quarter of 1966 - again £20.00

This razor is in in good condition.
- The head is very bright
- The metal work generally is in much brighter condition than the H1 above.

Faults:
- There is a tiny bit of plateloss on the handle - several spots, the largest being 1.5mm x1mm
- One corner of the guard bar does not quite line up 100% - it's probably 0.2mm, but I'm being fussy

Other than the above, very tidy razor.

Finally, we have the H3 - 1961 3rd Quarter - again £20.00

The razor is in good condition.
- The head is very bright
- The metal work is in generally good condition.

Faults:
- There is a tiny bit of plateloss on the handle - several spots, the largest being 0.5mm x1mm
- One corner of the guard bar does not quite line up 100% - it's probably 0.3mm, but I'm being fussy.
- There are some surface scratches on one end cap (nickel still intact).

Re: Three Gillette Slim Adjustables FS

Hi Guys,

Yes, both are still available.

I've sent you both my paypal details.

I'll not be able to post until the second as I'm not at work until then - so no panic re payment.
 
Re: Three Gillette Slim Adjustables FS

Not sure why there's still one left - these are great razors! I own two, and there's nothing like a Slim dialled up to 9 with a fresh Feather in it to get that BBS with almost no effort at all!
 
Re: Three Gillette Slim Adjustables FS

Received Razor yesterday, (but only picked up from Post Office Depot this morning as nobody in yesterday) Razor is a lovely bit of kit, my first adjustable. I think you were a little over critical in your descriptions but thanks for being so honest!

Looking forward to using it for the first time tonight with a Gilette super thin, will comment on 'Shave of the day' in the morning.

Thanks again,

A.C
