I see prices now, but am immediately turned off (as others may be) with the "make me an eBay high offer" type of listings I've seen lately.
All evidence has been buried. All tapes have been erased.
Did not know such a thing was frowned upon being that so many readily purchase from ebay.
EBay is to maximize profit, most forums are to help each other out. I don't believe DFS has any rules on the "make me an offer" listings, but most others do....and I'm guessing they will here soon too.
Your listing, with razors that appear to have been recently purchased, fresh with Antique store price tags, comes across as trying to maximize profits.

easy easy..
He just didn't know what the rule was, or lack there of, so we can give him a little break.
We all make mistakes on our first tries.
Also, those tags could mean that he purchased them as a "lot" to get something he wanted (obviously not slims and fatboys) and had these stored away for a while, or could have just bought them like you said, but you don't know which.
Even if he was trying to maximize profit, if the price he's asking is fair, I don't see a problem. (well, not exactly, but you know what I mean)
If someone is selling a fatboy he bought for $5 in 50's tries to sell it for $50, does that mean he's profiteering? No, he's just asking a fair market price for the item.
my 2cents....
