    Nice and it's a good price to start with the product. Have you seen the other lines (blue and red)?

    I bought my proraso tub at the local shoppers about a month ago, its still the original formula, but I like it, its nice to know that its available locally, I havn't looked to see if they have new formula because its gonna be a while before i use up my current stock

    so a couple of interesting things at my stores, at least the three that are very close,.... 1 two of the stores are missing most of the old line but not showing the new line and have very little qauntity, mean they are hoarding the new stuff out back till old stuff is gone or dont have it here yet, 2 one of the stores had the old product in the new shells, that is to say they have the dull tub of the new product with the old stickers on them, in fact i could see a sticker under the sticker ontop, i peeled it back to reveal italian writing so i think it is the last of the old stuff shipped out

    and last thing i noticed was SDM now has DE blades in stock, but dont get excited cause your not going to believe this, but they are wilkie classics at a whopping 14.99/ten pack yup i can get 100 astras for 8 bucks, 100 SI's for 50 or 100 of these things for 150 bucks lol, though its good they are trying

    Oh, it's in the back, alright! The girl I asked said some was there, but they hadn't input it into the system yet. As I said before, end of the month...apparently!

    White and green only, as far as I know. I'd love to try the blue, though.

    I'll have to check my local one! Last I checked (before Proraso re-formulated) they carried the entire line except for aftershaves. They also stock two types of omega boar brushes, it's so great. I also saw the wilkinson sword DE pack and was extremely surprised! Does anyone actually buy them at this price?

    Get it! The whole range. Every new item of the latest formulation I've got is superior in performance to the old.

    Great news! My local SDM's have been out for a long while, and have just started stocking the same items you pictured above. I'm glad to hear they'll be carrying the full line of new formula product! Nice to be able to run around the corner and pick up my supplies. Thanks for the heads up!

    I want to say $13.99, but I'm not 100%.
