    Default C&E Brushes

    Since I'm a newb, and after reading all the positive reviews for the value of this brush I decided to take a visit to the local mall and pick one up. Imagine my surprise when they have changed them by increasing the density of the bristles but also managed to increase the price by 30 CAD to 80$ from what used to be 50$CAD They have also increased the price and density of the others as well.

    I'm not sure if this is the case in the states yet, but I sucked it up and paid for it since I went there to get the best brush anyway...and I'm happy since it feels soft but not at all floppy!

    Just a notice for anyone who has been looking at C&E recently!

    The C&E brush is a good brush and was my first badger brush. Mine went to a friend who I introduced to the DE wetshaving world.

    When you get into the $75-$100 USD price range, the Saville Row silver tip brushes are an outstanding value for the price.

    I was saying I bought the best badger, but they are bringing in a whole new line for every brush and all the prices have increased...all the old models are selling 70% off if you can still find any in store. They had a super badger with pewter handle for 30$ I decided to buy when I went to another location which makes me feel better for paying 80$ for the new best badger.

    For me, unfortunately, 80$ CAD in store is a lot cheaper than 80$ online from the states once shipping, duties and other fees come into play!
