The New Sampler Kits Are In!

**Nick** · 02-21-2008, 02:54 PM

Most of the goods we were expecting have arrived, and after some delay, we're pleased to announce our next run of sampler kits are available for sale. There are a lot of newcomers added to the kit this time, a lot of exciting difficult to find products, and even a few regular sized products. Because we have 30 DR Harris samples and 50 of everything else, there are actually two kits available. The kit including DR Harris samples is available for 6 dollars more. When you come accross products in the kit that you enjoy and buy full-sized versions of, feel free to let the manufacturer/retailer know that you came across their product thanks to them participating in the Badger & Blade Sample Kits.

They're US-only.

**R-James** · 02-22-2008, 02:05 AM

I have a way round this, my friend over in Iowa. He buys it, I paypal him the cash +UK shipping. I get myself a sampler.. unless of course I have cologne shipping issues which may be a problem

Cheers,

**bjrn** · 02-22-2008, 02:10 AM

Well, you could always ask him order the kit and take out anything with alcohol in it. :)

**R-James** · 02-22-2008, 02:15 AM

That is very true, although I really like the look of the penhaligons. I'm going to be over there in July but I just can't wait that long to pick it up from him!

Cheers,

Does the UK also have a problem with shipping AS with alcohol in it? I am curious about this? Do most European countries have this restriction?

Richard

**bjrn** · 02-22-2008, 06:28 AM

A few do. I think the UK is one of the countries that does mind, along with Portugal and Greece, or something like that. The Dutch postal service doesn't mind.

**R-James** · 02-22-2008, 06:37 AM

UK royal mail will ship alcohol under 70% volume as well as live locusts and bees in clearly marked boxes. The last two you didn't need to know but i couldn't not share when I saw them on the restricted list!

Cheers,

**ps49556n** · 02-22-2008, 10:06 AM

The kit looks very nice but I personally am not interested in the majority of these products....may I suggest in the future that you offer a shaving-only kit and a shaving and bath product kit?
