As long as you can freely enter the house without falling over stockpiles of blades, razors, soaps, creams, sticks, brushes, scuttles, strops, hones, aftershaves, preshaves an worst of all angry spouses I'd say you're just fine. I'd only start to worry if I'd have to live in the garage because the house was too full...
Just for curiosity's sake - how many potential angry spouses are we talking here? You haven't developed Spouse Acquisition Disorder, have you?
No, it's the other way round: they've got Mike Acquisition Disoarder, aka MAD... As for the amount of angry spouses: that's a well kept secret.
I love these threads, I feel like a minimalist as I only have 3 DEs and only 300 blades. I do however have over a dozen Straights.
If you can continue to pay the rent/necessities and haven't sent spouses/family members into hysterical fits of tears in regards to the collection, where's the issue? It's when the crew for Intervention show up at your house that you might rethink your budget.
I like to think of myself as a gentleman collecter of shaving paraphernalia(or stuff)..My wife and kid on the other hand just think I'm nuts....
Yeah! That's a great idea. We should call it a...Travel Box! and send it around a couple of times a year, and you could have threads called Travel Box 2012, or Travel Box 2013... Gosh, that would be awesome. lol http://theshaveden.com/forums/threads/nationwide-box-iii-last-tour-for-2013.34862/
Interesting thoughts. I've been worried myself. Just started - really! Only 3 days and three shaves and I got 5 brands and 60 blades, coming and ordered 11 differnt soaps. And now I'm browsing eBay for nice Woden bowls.
