Thread: Movember 2022

I shaved this morning with a beautiful Bruno/Snail forge blade that I won last year!

I need to go thru my stuff, really looking to go for the minimalist approach. I only really use 2-3 razors, one used 80% of the time and I have some of the finest brushes and strops known to mankind, I only use one now. Thinking of the future when I may be alone and will then travel most of my time so having all this gear is a waste, and like the last few years it gives me joy to give it away. Spent a lot of money on this stuff to get the best. So it makes good donations, let me see what I got for this year

Mike,
Great stuff!
Thanks for putting this up.
I can throw in a GB razor for this.
Yes really.
Just let me know how.
Do I simply put it in the BST section an later wire you the money?
Let me know and I’ll do as you say.

!! That will garner some attention Sashimi!!

And is entirely gracious of yourself, and tc, and all those of us still engaged in this site to be involved enough to take part in.
As far as the auctions, what we did in years passed is folks post up their items with various end of auction times, so everything doesn’t end on the same day, on individual threads in this subsection.
Items authors dictate terms on the post and the highest bid by the established end date and time prevails.
The winners then make their donations to an active Movember member, such as my addy below, or the one in my signature:

Can all be done online.
Amount raised last year: $3,273

I’ve recreated the team SRP NorthAmerica again as in the last couple seasons
And I don’t mind being the validation process to let folks know when the funds are deposited, as in previous years.
Shipping is a variable that most of us either say tbd, or included with the prize and is at the discretion of the donator in each case.

Here’s to another banner month of swag, brags, and besting each other.
It’s a lot of fun, and all helps the causes that The Movember foundation invest in.

Do we have a dedicated thread for 2022 Movember auctions? Things are popping up here and Jerry has titled another thread giveaway auctions. Seems a single thread for all 2022 auctions with an intro might make things more visible and easy to find.
Or is it just me?

Yes, a sub-forum is whats needed for all items like the past, but one hasnt been set up yet.

Having last years sub’d down would make the new year clearer for sure, but as far as this year, as long as folks lead with Movember 2022 in their auction title, they should stay at the top of the thread still, like in previous years.
I’m not a mod so can’t amend the threads personally.
Things at home have settled and I’ll be adding to the thread this weekend.
Cheers gents.

So will this be the thread to post in?

Well no, the Movember auction thread will be the hub, one level up, with each auction item being an individual thread within this page.
Title should be Movember 2022 ‘item description’ much like Jerry already did, so they will stay at the top of the page in order they are created.
Content includes shipping terms and end date of auction, ideally cut off on or before the 29th of November so things get wrapped up within the month.
That worked in the past and should work again..
That way the 21 season can be sub threaded, and then the 22 season can be as well.

Richard added his socks to this actual thread, but it should have been created one level up in the Movember sub thread, not this actual sub sub thread.

Hope that makes sense gents?
Let me know.
Cheers.

I have pulled the strop socks posting into a separate thread titled Movember Strop Socks. It is in the Movember Auctions section. Waiting for the fashion conscious to want to covert their strops to start the bidding.
