It's a niche market and those who care about that razor are likely to have some idea of a price.
Could it be a publicity stunt? Or just hoping someone will be drunk and think it says £75.00?

They saw the latest Tedalus and priced accordingly?

1930 Gillette New Richwood #81 - one of the rarest British Gillette hybrids

From 1930 through 1950 the Gillette company offered a small number of ‘hybrid’ razors, meaning individual razor designs that somehow were between, or a combination of, the usual model lines. Most often with a head setup from one model line and handle design from another. British Gillette was...

Offer him about ten Brit moneys for it and see what he says. I can't keep up with your currency names.

I gave it a go lol

Just make progressively smaller offers to piss him off Mike.

In fact we should all be doing this lol

That was my intention.
iv actually mailed him asking if this price is correct but 24 hours later no reply.

 

[Mike Smart]

I think he’s playing hard ball.
