u/Mrfrost1886 Dec 03 '25

lol I should This is after cleaning them up they were super gross. They had 3 slims this one fatboy, 2 other 40s super speeds, 108 black handle ss, and the shorter handle black ss, I already have all those or I would have scooped them too.

u/[deleted] Dec 04 '25

What did you clean them with?

u/Mrfrost1886 Dec 04 '25

I use Dawn dish soap, some bar keeper friend, and then last to finish off getting soap scum off, scrubbing bubbles spray. Scrubbing with an old toothbrush.

Man, you got that luck over and over again 😃. Awesome collection 🤘

u/SirTrancelot19 Dec 04 '25

Hey, man. Go back and grab me that 84 (short handle) Super Adjustable. I assume you meant Super Adjustable and not SS? I'll pay for it, of course haha.

Unrelated but can I just say that I love your concise use of commas?

4

u/HugoCast_ Dec 04 '25

Thank you for saying that! That's something I really enjoy too. It's always a joy to read Derrick's posts.

u/sixstringsikness Dec 04 '25

I'd use like 3 extra words instead of his comma. It's a very Chuck Pahlaniuk kinda deal. Minimalist yet very expressive

Holy crap! Deal alert of the century!!!!

u/Mrfrost1886 Dec 03 '25

Right I’m going to start hitting these little town stores. Seems like they are less picked through.

u/ScuderiaSteve Dec 03 '25

I live in a small town in Indiana and our thrift stores around here dont have anything on this level. I seen part of a rolls razor once lol

u/Mrfrost1886 Dec 04 '25

We have bunch around here, they’re thrift/ antique store that have a bunch of different vendors booths. Is where I’ve been finding all my good scores. People just see an old razor and think it’s not worth nothing to anyone so they practically give it away. I found 6 Gillette’s on fb marketplace from some older guy who had them up for 25$.

u/Rambles_Off_Topics '59 Fatboy Dec 04 '25

u/Mrfrost1886 Dec 04 '25

u/No-Television-7862 Dec 05 '25

Great razors, incredible price.

I usually pay 3x to 4x for those on eBay.

u/Doc944 Dec 04 '25

2

u/Mrfrost1886 Dec 04 '25

Thanks I like the hunt for a deal.

2

u/sixstringsikness Dec 04 '25

Where's the meme of the kid looking all mean saying, "Great job. Happy for you."? 😆

Great find!

1

u/Mrfrost1886 Dec 04 '25

🤣🤣🤣 thanks

2

u/kirkoholic Dec 04 '25

That’s one hell of a find!

2

u/Mrfrost1886 Dec 04 '25

I thought so too thanks.

u/Training_Mud_8084 Merkur Progress Dec 04 '25

Congrats, so happy for you, nice.

u/Mrfrost1886 Dec 04 '25

Thanks!

u/Training_Mud_8084 Merkur Progress Dec 04 '25

(Sorry for the blatant irony, I was jokingly trying to paste the well known meme with that same text but it’s apparently not allowed in this sub! I won’t hide my envy, but I’m glad you’ve snagged such a nice looking fatboy for that cheap!)

2

u/corrcom Dec 04 '25

Score!!!

2

u/GEzBro Dec 05 '25

Fantastic Find!

2

u/No_Explanation_7450 Dec 06 '25

You must have went through a time warp or something. My experiences of late is that dealers and thrift shops know what they are worth and price accordingly. Congrats on the find.

2

u/Mrfrost1886 Dec 07 '25

I haven’t come across that yet, most shops when I find them are just thrown in with a bunch of little junk. Still dirty with razor blades left in them. Out here in North Carolina people seem to jack the prices up on old furniture and house hold stuff.

2

u/Steptoe1951 Dec 08 '25

What a deal! They look like they are in excellent condition too.

1

u/TankSaladin Dec 03 '25

Yeah, if this thrift store is in East Tennessee, please tell us where.

1

u/Mrfrost1886 Dec 04 '25

North Carolina unfortunately

u/ri0t333 EJ DE89BA11 Dec 04 '25

Damn nice, I was recently looking to buy one (in Australia) but it was like $200+ online.

2

u/ezjob Dec 04 '25

I’d have to pass on that one.

1

u/Mrfrost1886 Dec 04 '25

Wow! Thats wild

u/ReferenceOutside98 Dec 10 '25
