    I received the wrong set as well. How did you contact Walmart?

    Where it said to contact seller. But what I eventually found out was that the set sells for about $50.00. Found out from members on a FB group, that it happened to others and refunds were also issued to them. Seems like there was a glitch in their system and the wrong item was described.

    A couple of arrivals recently. A Schick Eversharp Deb razor and a later model Rotbart with a clear plastic base. The case will be used to house an earlier model Rotbart.

    Thanks Gary :D
    I've seen a few of the Rotbart's like this having the clear plastic base lately with various top caps and handles, but will now be on the lookout for the Gillette version too.

    The black handled Rotbart does look like it took some design cues from the Gillette popular you mentioned in a previous post. Being an anodized aluminum handle it only weighs in at 39 grams though.

    I wanted to try a Scupper Mug and found one that didn't cost a lot ($25). This one works well with HOT water and maintained the lather temp through the 3-pass shave. Inside of the bowl has bumps and ridges that help make lather. I imagine you could put cold water in it as well. This will be so nice this winter. The size is good for creating enuff for more than 3 pass shave. Easy to hold onto with the big handle.

    I just received this custom handle today. It originally lived as a MicroMatic Open Comb razor. @GAW9576 had made two handles like this. I asked him about how he did it. He revealed his secret, and I tried to do it, too. I only got as far as cutting the handle off. He offered to finish it for me, and I agreed. He threaded the handle and sent along two double threaded pieces that will accommodate most SE razors. Thanks, Greg. I will use it on tomorrow's shave.

    Picked up two more Old Spice mugs the other day just when I needed something to donate to the TSD raffle.

    A Hull Pottery 03 in great shape with hardly any paint fade and an American Glass Late 03 with a puck of soap that appears to have only been used a few times.

    They were priced at $15 and $10 and when I went to pay, the clerk told me that everything in the seller's booth was 20% off so that was an extra bonus.
