Just picked up a tube. Nice find. Thanks

imsodpc, the links to the shaving cream and soap were blocked by my malicious ware detector. Just thought I'd let you know.

why would they block the links? they were direct from ebay buy it now items....unless your computer is doing you a favor since we all know ebay is malicious and evil

As zerocool mentioned, I think it might be ideal for what a lot of us do - they have two broad categories: handmade and vintage. It's like it was designed for this crowd.

I swore off ebay last year (as a seller at least) when they, presumably in cahoots with paypal, decided to withhold my funds from a sale for 30 days. Since then I've sold nothing on ebay and have also been checking out Etsy. I have bought on Etsy before, but never sold. But I have a few friends who have shops there for things like pottery, textile stuff, etc., and have heard good things about the way they treat sellers.

Actually I can get into eBay directly. Its when its linked in by other than direct from my computer it seems malicious ware gets hook on by who knows who for what ever reasons. Believer I don't complain, I don't need my computer being hacked by everyone from nosy retailers to stealers of private information. eBay malicious and evil? Yes to some degree in that I get carried away and but too much "stuff" through them.

looks like those proraso tubes sold quickly.
