    Default A Ginormous THANK YOU

    I had to send a public "thank you" to garythepenman. We recently arranged a razor trade. I got them in today, and I cannot believe the deal I got. I hope he's as happy with what he got as I am with what I got. Fast shipping, great communication...truly a pleasure to haggle with, and a thoroughly honorable fellow. Just thought I'd stick his name up in lights for the day.

    I'll second that, Gary's a standup fellow. I swapped some Proraso with him, and he sent me a really nice razor. He originally only wanted the preshave (which I threw several jars in, probably enough to last until he's sick of it) but I also threw in some other goodies as well (tub and tube of cream, some l'occitane oil, proraso a/s) and then paid a fortune to ship it to him and I still think I got the better end of the deal.

    I kinda feel guilty when I pick up the kronpunkt I got from him and shave with it. Not guilty enough to send it back though

    Thanks Guys, I'm blushing now.

    Glad you liked the razors Joe, they are in quite good condition
    Yours hasn't turned up yet, even the one I bought but they will no doubt turn up soon. The yak hearder that delivers down here must be knackered.

    btw The Dorko should be following soon if not already.

    Kindest regards and thanks again for your comments.

    Gary,
    I got them all in today (even the Dorko). I love the Bengall...it looks and feels like my all-time favorite...a Geo. Barnsley & Sons Sheffield. Hard to pick a favorite out of that bunch. I did notice that the return address on your packaging was different than the address I mailed those razors to, though. I cut n pasted the address you sent me to mail them to.

    Joe, that Bengal is pretty nice eh ?.

    My address I gave you is my business address which is best. I live in a rural area and postage takes forever out in the wops, turn right after the black stump etc....

    I'm sure you can work wonders on the Dorko.

    Gary
