I just saw your bid history - 59 bids in 30 days on 39 items would work out quite expensive if you won them all.

Thankfully it doesn't show what you have bid on, just which category.

I found it a little scary that you could get that much information so easily.

It is scary. Although we all think of Mark as a regular bloke with slightly excentric collecting habits, he is in fact a completely disconnected, bearded recluse living only with a computer in the back of his man cave at home surrounded by endless shelves of shaving paraphernalia. To keep him alive, which is evidenced only by the occasional overheard "Gollem like" utterances, his distraught family shoves food through a doggy door hatch and with much hand wringing await the inevitable debt collectors followed by the men in white.
 
They're coming to take me away, ha-haaa.
They're coming to take me away, ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-haaa.

To the funny farm, where life is beautiful all the time and I'll be happy
to see those nice young men in their clean white coats and they're coming
to take me away, ha-haaa!!!

To the happy home, with razors and blades and brushes too and other
collectors who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes and they're
coming to take me away, ha-haa!!!

To the funny farm, where life is beautiful all the time... (fade out)

BTW - I'm now connected to the NBN. I'm only on a 25/5 plan at present but I could go to 100/40. Imagine what things would be like then ...
 
So I picked up a slim off my Dad when he was down and we traded a few things.

Also got this, which I may not use but still suits my other pursuits appropriately

Are we the only people in the world looking for these? We really should talk to each other more, could have saved quite a few $.

This is true. I actually stopped looking for them. This was the first time in months I actually looked at ebay, put a fairly low ball bid up and forgot about it until I got a message that I'd won it. I can always do with a few more. I'm in for a combined takeover of the world's supply of Shicks. If there's a motherload up for sale I'll put my hand up for some.

A look at the bid histroy reveals something interesting, got any news Mark?

Are any of those good deals compared to what you paid previously?

The last one is a bargain 180 blades, currently at $50. The last big lot I bought I paid about $0.75/blade delivered.

I promise I wont bid against you.
 
You could always get it shipped to gthomas's son and have him ship to you? I think Glenn made that offer.
