Re: Profit motive, or not?

There is the reality of the time spent in this hobby. If you restore a razor, time and funds are expended. I trade and buy privately among those I trust and that's different because if one party gets the better deal then typically said party tries to make it up on the next trade or buy. Plus, there ...
