Thanks guys.

Harold, no worries about the brush and shave soaps. I've got those under control from using my DEs. Currently have 6 soaps/creams from QED, Crabtree and Evelyn, and Taylor. Don't know other people's views of those, but I've found all three brands work quite well for me. I at one point had more but I've moved several times and the others were pared down in trying to keep from moving stuff I wasn't much using. Most of the ones I've left behind either didn't work well for me, smelled unpleasant to me, or just weren't anything special enough to use more than once in a blue moon. As for brushes I've got 2, a silvertip and a pure. Both work quite well for me. Since I figured I currently have those under control, I didn't feel like adding to them currently. My storage space currently is quite limited so I'm trying to keep to things I know are useful and reduce the amount of stuff that just collects dust.
