    Some neat stuff in there! Gonna give the black tip and Mama Bear's Amber Romance a little trial in the morning, like what I've seen (and smelled) in test lather with the Mama Bear's that it'll likely be one of my takes.

    Well yeah! It's not every day I receive 14 lbs of shaving stuff! Had to open it up and sniff everything immediately and check out the razors! Tempted to grab one of the numerous single edges in there too...ooops! Spoilers!

    Sorry for the delay, my original plan was to have it out yesterday or today at the latest. Unfortunate circumstances at work (my boss literally almost had a stroke and had to have a stent put in and our overnight guy has pneumonia) has lead to numerous 13+ hour days and weekend shifts. I will be sending out the box tomorrow afternoon, assuming I don't have to stay terribly late again. If I do have to stay late, my wife will be shipping it Thursday as early as she can get to the post office. (I already know I'm working late Thursday. ) Good luck next guy getting it all back in! It's stuffed!

    Great to hear. Make sure you post the tracking # and send me the tracking # too. Packing the box is like a puzzle, you work with for awhile to get the right combo.

    Box has arrived! I just need to wait for my condo office to open at noon to pick it up!

    Will post up later tonight after I have a look!

    Wow! There is a lot of great stuff in the box, especially for the newer shaver. Even for a well stocked guy like me there were a few good tidbits that I haven't tried yet.

    I am only going to take a few small things out. I'm a bit bummed as I am only going to be able to fit half of the stuff I wanted to add. The box is that packed. It took me 20 minutes to get everything back in after looking and I haven't even added my stuff yet ;)

    I am going to focus on things that are not in there currently to add. I have some Stirling And HTGAM soaps, a Gem Razor and at least four brands of blades that are not currently represented. I will make sure those at least get in. I will probably fool around with it for a few more days, and try to get it out midweek.

    Lol. There is not much I need, especially in the larger aftershave and soap containers. I would feel unnecessarily greedy taking things I don't really need out. I'm sure someone will eventually want to snag some of the larger items...

    I am looking forward to trying out a soap or two when it gets to me and I am sure something else will call my name! :) We see if anything can replace my Arko as my goto! LOL

    LOL- I am grabbing out a large tin of something called Green Mountain Vetiver. It has so so reviews, but I like Vetiver, and a challenge. This left me room to put a large tin Of Stirling Scots Pine in. Also adding:

    Two more new, untouched Stirling sample pucks
    A tin of HTGAM Synergy soap
    A brand new Arko stick cut in half for two of you
    Packs of Voskhod, Astra, GSB and 7 O'clock yellow blades

    The only other things I am taking are an older Schick Injector with blades, a pack of Lord Platinums and a tube of Arko Citrus cream.

    Box will head out Thursday! Enjoy your samples gents!!!

    The box top is literally bulging up now lol. Instead of putting my stuff into yet another ziplock, I tucked it all into existing bags to save space.

    Enjoy everyone, and thanks again to Brad for putting this all together! I will PM you the tracking info tomorrow afternoon....

    EDIT*** Box dropped off at Post Office and on the way as of 1;30PM Thursday****
