The purpose of this guide to assit ebayers in buying used shavers on ebay and making a simple upgrade to make this product hygenic again.

Many men and women turn to ebay to find shavers. Many of the high priced shavers can be found on ebay for a fraction of the cost in retail stores. Most of these shavers are Used. I dont think its approriate to get a shaver on ebay that as stated by the seller "was a gift used a couple times and just been sitting in on my shelve" I'm sure that seller has sugar coated that story a little bit to encourage more people to bid and buy this item.

 If you use a used shaver on your face and haven't sterlized or cleaned it efficently you may wake up with something the next morning that you wish you didn't rashs, acne breakouts etc. because shavers can be used on other parts of your body rather than the face if you catch my drift. If you have an open cut on your face and there is blood on this razor from the previous user you could be put at risk for STDs or HIV.

My recommendation is to secure a NEW cutter block and foil from Walmart, Target, Amazon or of course ebay. Its worth the extra $35-40 because you only get one face. If you chose not to get a new foil or cutter block, I would rinse the used cutter block and foil in hot water for about a minute, get a small cup and fill it with rubbing alcohol and water and let the cutter and foil soak inside the cup for a least 2 minutes. This will take off all the oils, dirt and dead skin that were on the foil and cutter previously which could make you breakout

 

Thank you and I hope you found this guide helpful
