Nice razor.
By the time the dust settles it's over $100. Maybe I missed something, but $26 for shipping?

Yeah...I miss out on a lot of eBay deals due to an extremely inflated "international" shipping charge to Canada...what a crock

Many sellers don't bother to do their homework and guess much of the time - and guess high turning off any Canadian interest. Nice little razor - and I have only seen them in pics.

Maybe they don't like the 2 minutes it takes to fill out the customs form (lazy) ? It certainly doesn't take $26 to ship to the north, so let's appear to allow it but eff 'em over to see how much the traffic will bear?

It gets worse...if you type in a search n eBay.ca and do the exact same search on eBay.com, you only get approx half the amount of hits on the Canadian eBay. There are a lot of sellers that simply will not offer shipping to Canada at any cost. I have contacted a few sellers and most are not interested and refuse to ship. I have much better luck buying from eBay UK and Europe as most of those sellers ship internationally at a reasonable rate. Its amazing I find anything at all on eBay Canada/US..... That being said, I did score this razor today, I was the only bidder, maybe I over paid but it seems like a nice lather catcher for $25... www.ebay.ca/itm/130818664528?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

I had a few Superiors that I traded to a friend of Dave's. They shaved good. Hope you enjoy it.

That razor has been listed there for at least a year, probably longer, for the same BIN price of $80.

I paid $55 for 2 of them. I think you got a deal.

I just think folks haven't heard of them. I used one of mine today for the first time. I like it a lot. It felt mild yet it was an aggressive shave result. Of course you know YMMV. I'll use #2 tomorrow, but I don't expect any difference.

I have one, and it is a beautiful shaver. One of the nicest safety razors I have tried.

I have been looking for one of these for a while. I would love to have one, if for no other reason, it's so unusual. It really looks beautiful.
