I work/live in Harrisburg, but am in Philly often for business. The AOS in King of Prussia doesn't do much for me. High prices, and the times that I've gone in, attended by folks who have less knowledge of the subject than I. Yet, if you like a product they carry, you're in luck. The mall also has a L'Occitane where you can buy some shave products that I've seen mentioned here. And you will find a Bigelow's where you can buy after shaves, colognes, and Poraso shave cream bearing the Bigelow label.

Now in center city Philadelphia, check out the Black Cat Cigar shop. Its on Sansom St around the 16 or 17 hundred block. Its small, crowded and smells of cigars....perfect in my opinion. They also carry some fountain pens and shave products. I bought a large Vulfix brush that is under the name Taylor of Bond Street, and they carry a large line of TOBS products. I do not believe that the Cat yet carries straight razors, strops, or hones as it seems to cater to the wet shave / bad razor community. I think their prices are on par with most of the online shops I frequent. Worth the trip for the creams, soaps and scents....IMHO.

Let me know if you find other sources. Jim
