What I can tell you is that it's very hard to determiine anything about that razor from the pictures other than that it has been bufffed to a shine.
All the blade face pics are in darkness so I would ask for better pics or walk away.

[QUOTE=madpaddy;1451745]Found two straights for sale not to far from me.
If these are them
1. First one is a R. heixisce

Certainly looks ok to me

2. Second one is a Stiz-sport ussr

not my cup of tea
But both look like they would scrub up well

that's them I was more interested in the first one then anything but im unable to find out anything about the maker when I search the maker im only getting links for the site that that razor is for sale on

My advice would be to wait for the one from Wipped Dog, Larry will sort you out for sure. With regards to buying from Ebay, I would suggest you read up a bit before venturing there. It is pretty hit and miss, also knowing what is reasonable and unreasonable to pay for a razor is very subjective. What may be worth a fair bit of $ to me is not necessarily going to be worth coin to you, it is a good idea to find out what various ones are going for as well as which regular vendors are trustworthy and ease into it. Have a look at this post to see what I mean about a fairly rare razor that was worth some coin to a purchasor:

P.S. I thought that was Blackbeards flag, nice one.
