    Good list - some interesting goodies there.

    I checked mine as well, and it appears I have this inbound;

    1) Prototype synthetic brush from the UK that I got invited to try out,
    2) Three Gillette razors where one appears to be a single ring with the "G in D" stamp,
    3) A very shiny 1920's French Lather catcher,
    4) Another Elgin razor. In box w/ papers
    5) "NIB" cased Fatboy w/ all papers
    6) Wood case w/ glass window for straight razor display/storage
    7) Three Mike's Natural Soap's shampoo bars
    8) Some coating stuff for vintage razor wood handles,
    9) Quorom EdT
    10) Yet another NIB, unopened Schick Platinum DE
    11) Solid Set vintage shave brush

    I think that's it.

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    Well as much as you usually have in transit I'd think a spreadsheet or guidance from UPS would be necessary. Some very nice items there. #5 really grinds my gears. I think I saw that one and gave it serious thought. One like it anyway.

    How does one go about getting "samples to try out?" I'd like to "help" others test their products. :)

    I really have no clue - it was an offer out of the blue.

    I suspect it has something to do with your tendency to post unique items and comment on multiple threads on a variety of different shaving forums. I'm starting to think that the "Darkbulb" personna is a group effort by a small cadre of dedicated collectors. ;)

    One day, @Darkbulb is going to invite the postman in to see his collection and he'll have a retroactive hernia.

    Expecting the arrival of a vintage C-MON HF (Peter J. Michels, Inc. Brooklyn NY - hence the "PJM" bolsters).
    Three-pin streaked celluloid scales, 5/8" blade with hammered tang. Needs a little clean up & polish but these old C-MONs are not only 'lookers' but also exceptional shavers!

    ive been keeping an eye on fatboys for a while now, and finally pulled the trigger.

    I put in an offer on the bay, and the guy accepted. I think it looks pretty good.

    any thoughts?
