I managed to pick up AOS lavender Pre and After shave and a travel brush for a steal on ebay just 13 minutes into the year! Also picked up the cream to match on B/S/T. Hopefully going to be adding even more to my new collection this month too! If not next month is my Birthday!

Finally...after 30 days of waiting...

My son scored a beautiful, pristine, undated Tech for $15. Local antique store.

I'm so proud (sniff...)!

I found this nice Grelot French paddle strop in the wild yesterday.

**bluepunk18** · 01-04-2012, 05:35 PM

Nothing fancy, but I just got my first Arko stick, and I can't wait to give it a go!

So far, 100 Iridium Super and 200 Astra SS. Later this month: a Robert's Feats of Clay scuttle (005, malachite green), weber SS razor and a spare handle, have a rolls razor viscount in the mail already as well as a couple old types.

Going to TRY to keep it to that.. for January anyways.

... though it is my birthday on the 11th, so that's always a fair excuse to spend, right?

On it's way: Polsilver blades, Edwin Jagger de8911

Klenso butterscotch.

**Mr.G** · 01-05-2012, 09:18 AM

I got a Simpson "Duke" #2, GFT Coconut Oil Cream and a Merkur Progress. Although, I don't think I'm going to keep the Progress.

1903-1904 Gillette Double Ring "Pat Apl'd For" Pre-serial number, Cased:

1906 Single Ring, Cased

**mstacks** · 01-06-2012, 01:46 AM

Hey guys, this is my second razor,

A 1930s Gillette NEW from what I've been researching which cleaned up pretty well! Also scored a Every-Ready 100T Brush and Currier&Ives Shave Mug (Homestead in Winter print, but this picture is from the internet :)). All this for $11.90! I think I did well...Thoughts?

**mr_happy** · 01-06-2012, 02:46 AM

I picked up a 40s superspeed from the bay and have to say it shaves really great :)

**Domminigan** · 01-06-2012, 05:23 AM

Mstacks, I think you did very well!

**Foyle** · 01-06-2012, 05:41 AM

I just got a tub of Trumper's Coconut from WCS. I'm looking forward to this morning's shave with it.

**ajs2294** · 01-06-2012, 11:28 AM

Just placed an order for Simpsons X2L! Boy this shaving thing is addicted.

**Sunflake** · 01-06-2012, 04:18 PM

Found these the other day. 1934 New DeLuxe Red & Black, and 1940's SS. Attachment 210939

**nemo** · 01-07-2012, 09:46 AM

Found a nice brush, C&E made in W Germany bristle. The knot is still usable and I like the short (45mm) handle. Defunking with Irisch Moos.

**bakerbarber** · 01-07-2012, 01:09 PM

A cool Bristle and Badger brush. I had to fight for it. Just came in NOS for sure!!

A nice SE set with wedge blades. The blades have three stars on them. Star razor marked with all sorts of engravings. I bought the lot for the two old stock Williams pucks, but got the SE and a ton of old blades.

I was also the only bidder on a Yardley set with AS, Cologne, and a soap on rope. NICE!!
