I'm particularly interested for the razors 
pictured at photos 85 to 97 .

Can someone recognize which razors are they ?
Can you suggest a roughly fair price for them ? 
I mean how much should I pay for those at max  ? 

Thank you in advance .

#85 is 1 variety of the American Button Company razors made for Gillette. It's the scroll pattern razor in the Imperial case. #97 is a French made Leresche razor but unsure which model as there were numerous variances. Price is subjective enough that I can't offer a suggestion. Determined by not only how scarce it may be but also how bad 1 or more people in an auction want it and how badly the seller wants to sell it.

I enjoy my Shell pattern one (Without a Case). I'd love and Imperial model razor purely for the looks but they demand too much usually. They are all the same as far as shave goes and are based on Gillette Old Type Heads.

He asks for 120€ and in fact he is willing
to negotiate for a lower price settlement .

$120 isn't too far out of the going prices and for an Imperial Razor AND Case I would pull the trigger. Mismatched as many are now I'd look for more $80-90 but that's just me.

85 - 89 Is a pocket edition may also be an ABC Gillette. Overpriced in my opinion since what drives the price is the case and style of handle. It is no better than a much cheaper old type Gillette. If you are collecting to display then you'll have to the premium, if for shaving I'd pass and buy an old type Gillette for much cheaper.

90 - 93 Leresche, French made they tend to be aggressive razors. If you can get it for the equivalent of $70 USD or less, I'd say buy it. You should be able to find another collector that wll pay up to that price for it later on if you decide you don't want it.

94 - 95 Wardonia and British made. requires extensive modification of the razor to use blades. I'd hard pass it unless it is some that tickles your fancy and then I wouldn't pay more than about $20 -$30 USD for it.
