Holy moly, the most basic of those razors would be worth about $120 today, according to an inflation calculator I just found. The fancy sets come out to about $1,190.50. That's insane! If that was the going price for safety razors back in the day, maybe that's the real reason Jeeves got so fussy when Bertie neglected to use his.
