After missing out on the one Erwin listed by a mere 22 minutes I've developed a hankering for a Gillette 58 which can only be solved by one caressing my face.

I know it's a long shot but if anyone willing to part with one there's cash waiting!
 
Thanks TSR and not sure if the member wants mentioning but thanks, I now have a Gillette 58 on it's way!

surprised? you bet ya! :icon_surprised:

It's because everyone knows, the next car boot you go to, everything you ask for will fall at your feet with £50 notes attached to it! :icon_lol:

It was me Steve. (I don't mind being mentioned Mark).:)
Thing is, I wasn't going to sell it, but try and get a nice case for it instead. Then I read Ids' post and decided to part with it. I was keeping it to look at and he wants to actually use it, so to me, that was the better cause.
The story behind it was I was looking for a President and bid on it on at the last minute on fleabay by mistake (It was just advertised as a "Vintage Gillette"), then after a bit of research, learned what it was. I wasn't too upset because I'd still paid a bit under the odds for it and that was that until it turned up and the condition blew me away. The razor was in superb condition with the case looking it had gone through hell and back. I just happened to look on TSR a few minutes after Mark had posted and thought "What the hell, it'll get used rather than just collected" and offered it to him.
So...it was originally listed wrong, I bought it by mistake, it turned up in spanking condition, Ids missed out on one, put out a not very hopeful post, I happened to see the post and now it's on it's way to him.
Who says there's no such thing as coincidence....:icon_razz:
