2014 Shave Purchase Sabbatical, The Year of Gentlemanly Shenanigans.

[ShaveYourSoul]

Wow, cool. After things settle in, I may take you up on that.

Just lemme know when you're ready. It's the good one with the longer black scales

 

[AABCDS]

I'm pretty sure that the B&B Essential brushes and the 2008 B&B Limited Edition Le Grelot straight are covered by the group exceptions so I have no personal exceptions.

[rockviper]

I usually agree with no exceptions on a restraint, but coming off of the previous full year, I find myself wanting one new razor after having gotten into the shavettes, so I'm taking that as an exception, if one appears on the BST for a price in my range.
19. Shave_Rat - Feather AC non-folder

You sure that you're not interested in my John Barber and a JNat?


Heck, why not...... I'm in!

Here are my previous failed attempts........
2011 : failed on Mar.03 (black tip SS - no longer have)
2012 : failed on Apr.10 (futur - no longer have)
2013 : failed on Jan.31 (JNat)

Most likely I will need a new strop, but we'll see how the revival of my current one works out....

[Taborcarn]

I've been kind of out of control with spending in 2013, especially towards the end of the year, so count me in for 2014. I know I am getting my first straight for Christmas and will be purchasing a beginner strop with it. Since I know most people ruin their first strop, my one exception item will be a replacement strop.

[NSmalls]

I have the supplies to join but not the will.

 

[Shave_Rat]

You sure that you're not interested in my John Barber and a JNat?

I thougth we were looking to negotiate those during the restock period, so I didn't think I needed to list that as an exception. lol

There's a restock period? LOL

...

You'll probably beat me, Sam. This is my first year in the sabbatical and RazoRock has three new items coming out next month.

 

[Shave_Rat]

January 1-7, 2014 restock window for successful year-long 2013 sabbaticalians (2013 GRUCers can restock 12/25-12/31/2013).

There's a restock period? LOL

If you are coming off of one of the previous restraints and going right into this one, yes.

 

[rockviper]

Sweet! When you succeed in this year's version, you know how to claim your prize!

 

[Reckoner]

I want to do it. I want an exception but I don't know what I want. I figure I will know it when I see it. I should be ready to rock and roll 1 Jan with a head ache.

I call shenanigans. One personal exception is fine, but name what it is, please. (I've been reading student papers all week and I'm still in my "be specific! use supporting evidence!" frame of mind.) Let us know by January 1!

I'm pretty sure that the B&B Essential brushes and the 2008 B&B Limited Edition Le Grelot straight are covered by the group exceptions so I have no personal exceptions.

Essential brush yes, straight razor from 5 years ago, no. Might be good to keep that as your exception if you're on the hunt for one (and I'm your man if you find two ).

 

[Reckoner]

I'm in.

IN.

Heck, why not...... I'm in!

Here are my previous failed attempts........
2011 : failed on Mar.03 (black tip SS - no longer have)

This is the year!

19. Shave_Rat - Feather AC non-folder

YES! Me, you, and vreddy2000 here for Back-to-back! Let's see if we can wrangle up any more of the 2013 crew!

 

[Shave_Rat]

Yeah, I'm going again. I've really broken my AD's this year, then add to that finances are such that even if I wasn't in, I'd not be buying anything over all, anyways. lol

[twitch182]

Put me in with zero exceptions. If my plans come to fruition then I will have to secede from the union based on the merits of my purchase. IF it happens I am sure I will have the understanding of the sabbatical team.
