I have decided to sell my 1898 Zinn Gem Automatic as it doesn't get enough use from me, and I'd like to use the money to fund other things. I'm asking US$200 for the razor and US$10 for international shipping from New Zealand. What do you need to know? It uses disposable blades, hence the automatic part of the name. Injector blades fit perfectly, and apparently you can use half a DE blade with the side tabs removed. I haven't tried this as I was more than happy using injector blades. I'm not planning on cleaning or sterilising it before I send it, other than a quick polish with a microfibre cloth. Given it's age and value I think it's best to leave it up to the new owner. Please feel free to ask me any questions about the razor. I've included one photo here, but more can be found on the Badger and Blade thread here - badgerandblade.com/vb/showthread.php?p=2087641Cheers Richard Attachments:

Selling a razor of that caliber is not what one does to raise cash. No way Jose. You should just keep it and use it on occasion and admire its beauty the rest of the time.
Now if you want to raise some cash, sell the wife ;D, the dog or the cat, sell your kids, anything but not that razor!

If he has both of his kidneys... ;D Ivan, Didn't think of the kidneys. That is two more things he can sell to raise some cash. How about his lungs too. Maybe even his pancreas. I would mention his heart but if he sells all the stuff I mentioned he just doesn't have a heart. As for his brain. Who would want a brain from someone who would think the first thing he should sell to raise cash is an 1898 Zinn GEM Automatic.  |

Sold! Thanks for the mockery...! You're welcome. And I hope rocketman enjoys it and will not sell it to raise some cash! Actually, I am sad that you must sell it to satisfy some other AD. Enjoy what you buy with the money from this sale. |

I know I've already been judged and found guilty, but in my defence I am keeping to an agreement I made with SWMBO when I first started collecting - only to keep razors that are in my regular rotation. I'm not going to feel guilty or ashamed!
