    Default ***FS: Simpson Chubby 1 Super and Chubby 2 Best***

    I never thought I would sell my beloved Chubbies, but I have another brush I have been favoring and I can only use one at a time. Both brushes are in excellent condition and come as pictured with the original boxes. Payment via Paypal.

    100% of the proceeds of this sale will be donated to an organization working to relieve the suffering, and devastation, in Haiti. Buyers may choose the charity if they wish.

    SOLD Simfix Chubby 1 Super (no sticker) - Originally $115, now $105 shipped CONUS

    SOLD Simpson Chubby 2 Best - $100 shipped CONUS

    Just what I'd expect from my friend Michael. Your heartfelt gesture is inspiration to us all!

    Good on you Michael. I will match the donation of the greater of the two brushes to my company, which will match that in kind - and make sure it gets (100%) to help with the disaster.

    Well, I bit. PM & payment sent for Chubbster #2.

    I've been craving a Chubby for a while now, and what better way to justify SBAD than to equate a new purchase with making a donation to such a worthy cause?

    Kudos to Michael for being a paragon of generosity!

    Default Amazing !!!!

    This is a testament to all the B&Ber's that were part of this string and to all those others that have been so kind to me here. I am not so naive to think there might not be a stinker here among us but I certainly have not bumped up against him or her yet. I find it truly amazing that a simple daily personal task like shaving draws together so many really wonderful folks !!!
    Blessings to You All
    PS Michael....I will match the amount paid for the Chubby 2 to the organization you are working with. Just pm me the info.
    Have a Great Day....unless you something else planned!!!

    Thanks for the kind words, and kind gestures, my fellow members. It is a drop in the bucket, and I thank you for throwing in.

    The Chubby 1 is still available, and now drops to $105! I am not looking for trades, but thank you for the offers. While this is not an original Simpson, it is completely different than the other Vulfix-made Chubby 1 I owned. This one has a fan shaped knot as opposed to the bulb shaped knots they seem to be making now. My guess is that it was made early on in the transition. For such a small brush it is downright amazing and, today only, with a $105 "donation" to Haitian relief you will receive the brush! If you are a DE shaver I will throw in some blade samples as well.

    Both brushes are now sold. Many thanks to B&B and its fine members!

    After having a conversation with my wife, following is the charity that we selected: http://www.standwithhaiti.org/haiti. A $355 donation has already been made, $150 of which is from Maher.

    $300 (I rounded up) just went to GlobalGiving from myself and my employer. Thank you to Michael for the wonderful idea!

    Sorry for the bump on a completed sale, but I wanted to share that 5 minutes ago my employer announced they would match my donation dollar-for-dollar, so the $355 has instantaneously become $710! While I know generosity flows abundantly throughout these forums, I am so pleased with how this tiny thread has unfolded. Thanks again to you all!
