good
shaver embossed celluloid antique straight razor SWAN – I am the author of
“Getting To Know Your
Straight Razors”, “A History Of Shaving & Razors”,
and several other books on razors, and have been a trusted
seller for many
years. As I have done many times in the past, I have taken on a
consignment of razors from
an estate. I will mention
any notable damage or imperfections in these razors. Please look at my other
auctions for
more fine razors.
This
lot consists of a 5/8” wide antique straight, has faint blemishing from
long storage, fine blade nice but
needs a little cleaning, oiling and will
clean up pretty well – has some bright.
Blade is a bit loose but can
be gently peened to tighten up, as was done
by the old timers. Marked GENEVA
CUTLERY COMPANY, GENEVA
NY. Nice
ivory celluloid handles, obverse one embossed with swan in lily pond, lightly
dyed.

combined for multiple purchases. No shipping by UPS. Due to my work schedule, items ending on
Thursday or Friday will be invoiced on Saturday morning. ATTENTION: DUE TO EBAY’S NEW GET
RICH
QUICK SCHEME, THEIR FINAL FINAL
VALUE FEES TO SELLERS INCLUDE A COMMISSION ON
SHIPPING COST (EBAY IS TAKING A PERCENTAGE OF THE SHIPPING COST). SINCE THE COST
OF MAILING ITEMS TO YOU IS FIXED (I CANNOT
ASK THE POST OFFICE FOR A DISCOUNT) I WILL
NOW HAVE TO RAISE THE COST OF SHIPPING FEES, IN ORDER
TO SHIP YOUR ITEM. EBAY SAYS
TO ROLL IT INTO THE
SHIPPING FEES! (THE PROBLEM WITH
THAT IS THAT YOU THE CUSTOMER,
GRADE THE SELLER ON HOW REASONABLE SHIPPING FEES ARE, SO EBAY HAS US SQUEEZED
BOTH WAYS.) I DO NOT THINK THIS IS RIGHT, BUT I HAVE NO CHOICE! CONTACT EBAY AND TELL
THEM
THAT THEY SHOULD NOT BE TAKING COMMISSIONS FROM YOUR SHIPPING FEES! I THINK
ENOUGH IS
ENOUGH. THEY ALREADY CHARGE LISTING FEES AND TAKES 12% OF WHAT YOU SELL
YOUR
ITEM FOR AT THE END OF THE AUCTION (FINAL VALUE FEE). AND IF THAT IS NOT BAD
ENOUGH,
THEIR CAPTIVE PAYMENT COMPANY PAYPAL ALSO TAKES 3.3% OF THE
TOTAL PAYMENT RECEIVED
(YES, SHIPPING FEES TOO!)
EXAMPLE: SHIPPING COST IS
$5.35 FOR PRIORITY SMALL FLAT RATE
SHIPPING – TO PAY FOR SHIPPING AND EBAY/PAYPAL FEES I MUST CHARGE YOU $6.20
