Okay guys it time to move over to the topic on May 2016 Acquisition Thread as the month of April is over ;)

Edit:- Forgot I've received another RazoRock Misson 3 piece safety razor today for my brother.
 
Well, quite a day for me. Two overseas orders turned up.

The first was my first Massdrop, an IKON Open Comb Deluxe with a BullDog handle. And a nice leather travel pouch:



And then my order from Fine Accoutrements:



Now, which one to use first.......
 
You guys are making the Fine slant incredibly appealing. Very tempted, but I may hold fire for the Razorock Wunderbar slant next month.

In due course Dr. Bob,please post a review on the Fine slant.
On another note re the Fine shave bowl,you gotta love a Company with " static hole technology"

WOW - "static hole technology"

Although I would be more impressed if it was "our patented static hole technology" ...
 
Did anyone noticed the price of the Polsilver Super Iridium lately ? They are less expensive than Perma-Sharps : /

Yeah, I'd be wary at those prices. Pol Si through http://www.polsilver-blades.com/ are still around the $18 USD mark.

A few years ago you'd say to me 'Hey this guy has PSI at 18$/100!' I would have wondered if they are fake. Those blades used to be sold at 55/60$ per bulk.

Thanks great prices! Usually it's double that... Hmmm, wonder if they are fake like the other one's @Monsta_AU highlighted the other day...?

I've never bought anything from Amazon in my life so how can I tell if this is real or fake copies of Gillette Silver Blue ...

Amazon is a major retailer, I doubt you'd get a fake. They also have pretty good customer service in case of any issues. I'd have no hesitation.

I mostly agree with your statement but Amazon is turning into more of a marketplace where anyone can sell whatever they have.
So it does still pay to check out the settlers feedback as you would on eBay.
