Hi, I'm a long time reader here but a newbie into the extended world of shaving. I'm excited to learn and further my fairly non existent knowledge. Right off the bat I have a question, so please advise where I should put this. I have somebody who wants to sell me a kg p160 tipo morbido for $100. They said it's been stored at 68 degrees and sealed in a dark container. Would this still be worth a buy, or should i pass?
Welcome, from Texas. My suggestion would be to post this question in the soap section. Maybe those guys would know better.
hello and welcome. i have not used that soap before but i hear it is good. ib site has a block left for $10.000 .last one available. ( charitable donation). if you like the soap its worth a go.if you don t you have lots to sell or give to your friends.
Welcome @Kris Church! Glad you signed up. I can't offer an opinion as I never tried that soap. Because that's a discontinued product it has the potential to sell for much more than the retail price. One kilo = 35+ ounces. That's $2.85/ounce. As a comparison (price, not quality) Arko shave stick runs around 75 cents per ounce. If it's four times more desirable than Arko, then it's a deal! If you have the money to invest, there's the possibility of recovering and even profiting from your speculation. Assuming the deal isn't time sensitive wait a little and see what folks in the know have to say? Since you are new to The Shave Den, take a moment and sign up for the Newbie Giveaway. It's a chance at some internet credit fro a couple vendors & a vintage Gillette razor from a TSD member. Read the rules to be sure you qualify.
to TSD @Kris Church I hope you enjoy it here. I've never used that soap. Sounds like a lot of money, but then I'm cheap. I use Arko and it's never let me down.
