What's the worst you have ever had Acquistion Disorder?

You should see my pile of double edge blades, it would make you wonder where the medicine cabinet went to.

 

Have never had AD. The bank account won't allow it :rofl

 

Pretty bad on RAD right now. It gets pretty bad when you really dont have the extra money..but you are contacting more than one person to make you some blades.

 

I'd say I'm just out of a phase of RAD... now I just have to wait for the CC bill to arrive

 

I have several going at the moment all equally impressive. How many blades do you have ? I think I need more blades !

 

80 right now, I have had that number as high as 110.

 

80 ? That doesn't seem so bad. I was looking at splitting a purchase of feathers (250) off ebay to get better price per blade.

 

Add 800 to that number and that is how many I have.

 

Now - Thats stepping up to the plate ! Are you counting new blades or both new and used ?

 

New, unopened blades.

 

Forunately, this disorder is relatively inexpensive and at least provides some usefulness. I wonder what the most someone has paid for a DE razor?

 

I am glad to hear that I don't have RAD that bad. Hay that rymes. The most that I would ever pay for a Double Edge would be about $20, becuase I know I can get one for that. I have not and probably will not buy any more double edge razors but if I did I would be on ebay looking for an individual who has no idea what the double edge is worth and as a consequence is selling the item for much less then the value of the item. I picked up the last few additions to my razor collection at $10 for three, not really a bad price for them and compelting my collection and all.

 

The prices seems to have gone up a notch or two lately on ebay, it's impossible to get a FatBoy at decent prices. Was thinking of getting one for my brother

 

My ADs have been held pretty well in check. I only have about 4-5 razors, a couple hundred blades and... get this... haven't bought a tub of shave cream since August 2007. I've never spent more than $28 on a DE. I've only bought one tube of Speick, Speick aftershave to go with it, and a puck T&H luxury soap since August. I just finished off (about a week apart) a tub of Taylor's St. James and a tub of AOS Sandalwood that I'd bought around Feb 2007.

I've kind of moved on to a new hobby - freshwater aquariums. I started putting one together this year at about the same time I found classic shaving last year.

 

Acquisition Disorder?? Do Harley's count? How about revolvers? Overclocked computers? :rofl

 

That is a successful AA (Acquisitioners Anonymous) story!

"Hi! My name is Johan..."

 

I have all kinds of AD now, SC/SSAD, even EDTAD!

 

At one time, I had over 40 brushes. Now down to less than 20. And I use 4 on a regular basis.

St. Croix

 

My worst Jones has been fountain pens.
True they are only of the under $500.00 (mostly)variety, but I have at least 25 of the buggers. The worst part is that I can't seem to part with any of them.
Now it's DE's and Straights to boot!!
Ken.

 

Hehe, that sounds like NASA speak

- This is Flight control. Flight stations, status!

- AD is go!

- SC/SSAD is go!

- EDTAD is go!

- Flight control, we are go!

[- Abort, abort! CC is no go! I repeat, CC is no go! ]
