A very nice set by the way.

Saddly I have to agree with you... I`m already look into new 7 day set.... D*** RAD! Go away!!!!

The first step toward is admitting that you have an addiction

Unfortunately many of us are still stuck at that first step also so you have plenty of friends here with you


Hi my name is Glen and I have a problem and you are ?????

Every time I think that my RAD is cured, I walk into an antique store and walk out with more razors.

WOW! GREAT SET!! Colour me jealous!

RAD is not a disease. It is not a genetic disorder. It is not a character flaw. it is not a psychogenic disorder. RAD is a mind-set, a gratuitous by-product of well-groomed gentlemen seeking to present themselves in society in favourable and well-mannered fashion while simultaneously keeping the economy afloat in these troubling times.

Did I mention how envious I am? Great find!

Until you get past the denial stage it, life is bleak and painful. Please take Glen's advice.
Hi I'm Paul, I'm a RADaholic....
God Grant Me The Serenity To Except the Things I Can not Change, The Courage to Change the Things I Can, and the Wisdom to know the Difference!

Translation..... How much is too much stuf and will I get in trouble if I buy more????

Str8Shooter:
The stages of grief: DABDA (Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, Acceptance) really do not apply well to RAD. However, the model of identity formation (crisis, diffusion, moratorium, and achievement) do. I respectfully submit this in the spirit of fostering amity and harmony. However, I do agree with you on one point: "Life is bleak and painful" until a new acquisition is professionally honed!

Great set Congrats. However all you have managed to do is to put your RAD in a state of suspended animation. After an undetermined period of time it will wake. All it takes is a nice razor. Then its feeding time!!!

Don't you believe them. I've beat RAD 10 or 15 times. Not a problem!! And I'll whip it again soon! HAD takes your mind off it for a time!!

Nice set of razors! Envious!!!

Regards,

Howard

OK,

it is all lie and I really need help!!! I just purchased another razor... Please help me!!! Does really other SRP members have they same problem or is just me?

Other thing is... how to hone this NOS set without destroying gold wash. I know ONE CORRECT answer is to hone without tape. Any alternative solutions that might be implemented? Are those razor even A good razors? Does anyone has experience with this brand? Are they Superb, very good or just good shavers?

Thank you everyone for your kind words and support.

Hi my name is Adam and I used to have RAD, HAD, SAD (strop and soap) and BAD

yes I may have sent a payment to a member for a razor, but I dont have the razor yet as there is one more payment so that doesnt count right?
I have not bought a strop in atleast a month so thats licked right?
Two weeks with out buying a Hone.....but I do need a lapping plate as I am sick of sand paper and lapping plates cant possibly count against me!!!!
two weeks with out buying another soap. I bought MWF so I wont need another puck of soap for like what a year??
and the last brush I got was a freebie from a friend so that dont count either......

I did buy a couple of DE's but to be fair I am trying to put together a graduation gift for my nephew....just not sure I want to part with them now so I may need to get him a different one.


see how easy it is to get over your AD's? its silly really, I mean who needs to check ebay every 10 minutes.....crap brb auction ending soon...
