Well, I pulled the trigger on Jake's #15. He's a pretty awesome guy and allowed for me to hold the razor while I recoup some funds. I finally got our guest bedroom in order to display all my software and now that everything's out of the box, I realized that I'm not going to go through a lot of this any time soon. Some of this stuff I have back-ups for so no need for multiples at this point. I would consider myself a bit of a hoarder but because I need to pay for that #15, I'll let some of this stuff go. This will only be sold in lots. I feel like I'm offering more than a fair deal where breaking it up wouldn't save you much money. All sales are through paypal and CONUS only.
1. A true AOS sandalwood kit plut extras. For $100 AOS sells you their full kit. Comes with the pre-shave oil no one uses, the aftershave balm, a tub of cream, and their pure brush that isn't worth it.
For $100 NOW $90 you get the following. A new refill puck of AOS sandalwood soap. A 55% full aftershave balm. The AOS sandalwood cream has more than 100%. I filled this up with cream from another tub so you're getting more than you'd pay for. The brush is AOS's Fine badger brush (not the pure from the kit that retails for $110 http://www.theartofshaving.com/shop/shaving-brushes/fine-badger/52063). You'll get the remaining bits of AOS lavender cream and a new dalain d-men menthol shaving cream (energetic).
I don't have specs on the brush and AOS doesn't provide them. I only have a rule to measure and it looks like knot is 23 set at 57 loft. It's a very soft brush and really does a fantastic job building up the AOS cream lather. Haven't tried this guy with soaps.

2. Random assortment lot. I got a nice deal on the following and want to share that deal. For $30 NOW $25 shipped you get the following.
The Shave Den Violet and The Shave Den Aqua Velva Type soaps. I bought these use and don't know whether TSD fills their soaps to the top to determine how much is left. Both are above the halfway mark on the tub so at least 50% if not more if TSD doesn't go up to the top on their soaps.
1 puck of Salter's Mint Soap. This soap was in bowl and was trimmed to fit but I never used it. Not quite 100% of course.
1-off used samples of cream: Nancy Boy Signature, Nancy Boy Replenishing, TOBS sandalwood, Pen's Blenheim Bouquet. I've used these once each.
Sample of QCS lavender.
1 new stick of Arko
1 used stick of Speick
1 60% full tub of GFT violet.
So you'll basically get a tub of GFT violet for 15 dollars and 10 other small things for the other 15.

AHH YES.. I also forgot. Buy any of these two things and you can get my Kent BK8 for $58. Thread from that original sale is here http://badgerandblade.com/vb/showthread.php/247630-FS-FT-Thater-4292-6-and-Kent-BK8?highlight=
I will not sell the BK8 for that price on its own. It's not for sale on it's own given the BST requirement of 20% markdown from my most recent price of $70. Only for sale if you buy any of the other items.
