Monday October 23rd - Sunday October 29th

I bought letterk's 50 blade sampler and the 240 derby extras for B&B'ers from ebay. Then it hit me like a ton of bricks...I don't even own a double edge razor yet. So I bought the following Gillette adjustable 1-9's from ebay. Prices include tax and S&H:

1) '63 slim from a guy in Israel $22.90
2) '71 black mesh handle from a person in Nova Scotia $16.00
3) fatboy w/case/blades/paperwork $45.15
4) fatboy w/case/blades $43.25

Do these prices look at least fair...for ME!

P.S.- I may be interested in another fatboy or two (I need fatboys for Christmas present for father and brother-in-law and courtesy score for friend. Any offers?

Those prices are about right these days. I've been noticing the prices on ebay have been going up lately. I guess its this forum.

One thing though you can get the razors cheaper. Its just a matter of being patient enough to find a good deal.

100 Feather blades
And Rene was nice, he added 5 Sharp and 2 7AM.

Great, the order I placed on the 27 of august finally arrived.

2 Bodum Pavina Double-Wall Thermo Glasses
2 Bodum Pavina Double-Wall Cooler/Beer Glasses
1 tin of Bob's Chocolate Flake tobacco
1 tin of Astleys No.109 pipe tobacco
Gently used 125ml bottle of Ralph Lauren Safari AS Splash from TraderJoe

I have the same Pavina glasses, they are fantastic!
Cheers, DJ.

One day I will build-up the courage to try this straight. It has been honed and came "shave ready", but am I?

Cheers,

Simpson PJ1
Edwin Jagger Silvertip
Trumper Rose soap

Finally completed the Persian Jar Trio:

Scotto, where did you order your E&J from? Oh, and that PJ1 is shure a cute little bugger.
Cheers, DJ.

Gee, just guessing, but did you happen to use that PJ2 in the Rose soap too? It looks a little... pink

And yet I'm still interested in what you bought. I'm Greek (well, of the American variety) and would love (ok admittedly for the novelty sake) to try the Greek cream. Its a bit pricey though. Have you used it? Is it any good? Also what's the name brand of the hair gel? And finally, what store did you buy it from (that way I can neatly avoid having to wait two months for an order )?

Thanks.

No shaving stuff, bought this for the office:

Scotto,

Nice brushes. There is something VERY familiar about the shape of that EJ. You know...SR familiar...

You won't be disappointed. I would get the XL if you can afford it - they run on the small side.
