It appears that they sold for like 3x that new and are LE, so probably.

You've got an amazing price on an excellent brush. It's one of my favorites. I have a 3 brush rotation, and the Astor gets the bulk of the use.
Congratulations!
Congratulations!
$90 for a brush that runs about $250?
Did it fall off a truck?

The only thing that would worry me about this price point is if the brush is a shedder. I've only owned 1 brush that was a shedder and it was a simpsons grosvenor LE.
If it is not a shedder......tell me again where I can pick this up

OKay Freddie, get out the stale tootsie rolls and mill another Asster.. Grab the cat and we'll make this one a $90 Special!!!
Sorry for the late reply, guys.
It certainly didn't fall of a truck, and I'm hoping it's not a shedder.

Since I already shaved this morning, i won't get to use it until tomorrow. I'll try to post some pictures tomorrow too

At $90 for a brush that some paid over $300 for it is worth the risk!
Will you take $180??
That's B&B! Gotta love the SBAD!

No deal. I bought it as an upgrade from my current brush, a small Simpson Special, and I plan to use it
Had my first shave to today, and and it's kicking a**. Definately an upgrade from what i used to have.
Wow...I can't believe I missed this sale...Beautiful Brush Porn, fellas...Just Beautiful!

Keep your eyes peeled. If one pops up in the B/S/T jump on it! I can say without a doubt this is one brush I'd never part with.
I see that WCS still has some Astors listed on their site.
They do indeed list the brush, but when you chose to buy it you get: "Availability: Not for Sale"
#7 has moved from Tuscaloosa, Alabama to Redmond, Washington. Shaved with it today and it's a great brush.
#4 has a permanent home now in Arlington Virginia! Bought it from a b&b vendor who was keeping it for himself, still new in box, but I was able to talk him out of it! All I can say is this thing is amazing.
I am envious of both of you! Congratulations on great acquisitions, gents. Oh, and we will need pics!
