Celebrate your Independence by showing us your new goodies! Well at least for our U.S. members... Waiting on Jeff to post his haul since he requested someone start this.
"I grew up with six brothers. That's how I learned to dance - waiting for the bathroom." Bob Hope eBay is a wonderful thing...still waiting...
Thanks Bill! Today, I got home and found four beautiful packages waiting on me! The first package was from our pal Panchango / Dale. He sent me five of his razor fused glass magnets and a coaster. He posted about them in THIS THREAD. These are very neat! The next package had a Gold Ball End Tech and an Open Comb Razor By Conrad Razor Company. They had something to do with The Clix Brand before Gillette bought them out...or so I think? The Conrad has a handle that is bonded to the nut that the head screws into. I think the blue handle is Nellite? The next package contained an Irisch Moos Stick. I have head so much about this stuff! I can't wait to try it! I got it from a Tampa Guy so it was here in like two days! The last package was from Shaveabuck. I got a Lea and a Bea shave stick, an Erasmic Cream, Two Brut Lather Creams, (I did not know they made this stuff! I Love Brut!) A Lea Menthol Cream and a bottle of Hoyt's Cologne. A decent haul I think! Plus, I have a lot more stuff coming. Ever since 1OLDGI / Mike gave me the Arko stick I have been wanting more sticks. With today's haul and last week's haul, now I have six sticks and needing more. I will be ready the next time shave stick week comes around on TSD!
Very nice Jeff! I've been eyeballing that Lea Menthol cream, Lea Stick, and Hoyt's cologne for a while now. Lemme know how you like the stuff please. My small haul from a very awesome lady:
Bought one of these at Edwards in Tampa in 1977. It was a $75 pipe back then. I just scored this beauty for just south of $15 shipped. Great Success!
Hey Brother! I used to smoke cigs, and pipes, then I started on the snus. What do I need to do to get back in to pipes?
Finally...couple of sweet Gillette's. The Super Speed is a 78, not sure of the date on the Tech. . . Nice mug JoAnna
JoAnna - Will those mugs ever be available for purchase? I'd love a TSD mug (with either my user name or no name) and I'm confident the M.U.G. mugs would sell.
Here is today's Haul. A scuttle from Robert over at Feats Of Clay. He agreed to fire me a scuttle in my favorite color, which is purple. I also received SWMBO's birthday gift, a Lady Schick Injector in pink.
Bill and I have set up this mug design with Zazzle. However, Sparky is planning on plain TSD mugs from another source, which will be cheaper. Zazzle is the only way I know of to get your username on the mug. But the price seemed a bit much to me, not to mention the time it took to get here. This mug doesn't seem like it would be a good lather mug. It's your average coffee mug. Narrow. If you go to zazzle and search for The Shave Den, you'll find the mug, and can add your username to it. It was like $19 shipped. <shrug> I've picked out the plain TSD mug sparky is working on, and it will be much more of a lathering mug, wider and shallower.
I'm working toward getting my TSD orders to one big annual order. I expect the first of these will be this fall - I'll have to pick up the lathering mug then.
