Newbie calls it PIF

[Chef455]

Greetings newer members of B&B!

In order to support your new shaving journey I'd like to send you a new kit to help you discover some more nuances.

Up for grabs - choose 1from each category and let me know "I'm in". I'll pick a random winner in a weekish.

Razor - Merkur 23c, Gillette Superspeed, Gillette Ball End Tech

Brush - Omega Boar, unbranded badger, RR badger

Soap/Cream - AOS Peppermint, Stirling Lime #2, Razorock Barbershop

I'll uncover a tuck of blades and possibly a small ceramic shaving bowl as well.

Members in good standing with 50 or more posts & CONUS only, apologies.

Best of luck!

An amazing PIF for new traditional shavers. I highly recommend the Merkur 3423C,though any of the three would provide an excellent shave. Not in, as I am far from new, but will be watching to see who wins this generous offer.

 

[SharpieB]

Nice one. Good idea. I may steal it from you soon for my own PIF.

Oh, not in!

 

[Chef455]

I'll check on date codes for the two vintage razors and post them soon. Too lazy to remove myself from the sofa at the moment.

What would you consider a “newbie”? Great PIF!

 

[MilkCrate]

Great PIF! Respectfully not in.

Let's say having joined B&B within the last 9 months. But heck, if you think the shoe fits, flaunt it.

I think you all can see that the items that aren't chosen will eventually need a new home as well...

Great PIF with nice options. Respectfully not in.

Wow, very generous! Count me in (I've only been using a DE razor for about 4 months).

• Razor: Gillette ball end tech
• Brush: RR badger
• Soap: RR barbershop

Thanks!

 

[zacktracy]

Very, very generous sir! Count me in! I’ve been at this for 5 months and have never used a Merkur.

• Razor: Merkur 23c
• Brush: RR badger
• Soap: RR barbershop

Thank you … someone is going to be very happy!

Awesome PIF and very generous of you. Wish I met the requirements, but I don’t think I’ve been around long enough to meet the 50 post requirement. Good luck guys.

Though I'm not sure how many posts I have.

Congratulations to @StewB for taking the first round of this PIF!!!

And as a runner up we have @zacktracy ...
Alas there was some overlap in the desired goodies, so Zack will have to make another decision on brush and soap.

I hope that both find their new kits to their liking and that they continue to contribute to the forums for years to come.

After @zacktracy chooses his runner up items there will still be a kit up for grabs. Let's consider this PIF closed and I'll post the remainders in another thread.

Congrats to StewB & Zacktracy

Soap: Stirling Lime
Brush: Omega Boar

 

[StewB]

Thank you sir!
