    How much is the shipping on that box anyway? Considering signing up for the next go around.

    It's the Priority Mail Large Flat Rate box...

    If you print your shipping online, it's $14.20 for the Priority Mail Large Flat Rate box and includes free delivery confirmation/tracking. I just use PayPal's shipping to pay and print:

    If you pay at the post office, it's $14.95 plus I think it's another .80 for delivery confirmation/tracking.

    Not yet. I think Jeff is going to wait until it goes around completely before the next signup begins. Keep your eyes peeled on this thread

    When people mail it off, they should put the delivery confirmation/tracking number in their "this is what I took, this is what I put in" post so people can know where it's at and about when it'll get to the next destination.

    The Box arived yesterday afternoon it may take me a couple of days to go through it if that's cool. One thing I know I am grabbing is the 1912 Ever Ready SE. Also the 5 SE blades to go with it. This will be my first SE is there anything I need to know about shaving with an SE do I need to go about my shave differently with an SE than I do with a DE?

    Good choice, I hope you enjoy it. Those are Ted Pella Blades-so good I've never tried any other SE blades. Hold it very flat on your face, rock up to the sweet spot, and no pressure is muy importante.

    While I'm not participating this time around, I just wanted to say thank-you to everyone who has participated so far. Such a project could easily turn messy, but by everyone being responsible and generous you've made this a big success.
