I don't know, but the Pure badger brush goes for $39 online. They don't even have the Best badger on their website... Also, says handmade in England on it, so I wonder if it's just a relabeled brush (like how IIRC Col. Conk's brushes are really Vulfix).
I would love to get one of those brushes if someone would buy one and post it to me in Seattle, Wa...Obviously I'd pay for the postage and would appreciate it as well!
Thanks in advance!

Juicyorchid: you just missed the run to buy more! I went yesterday evening to pick some up for other people. Unfortunately, I wont be able to go back again. There were still 6 or so if you can find another DC person to get them for you.
+1!! If anyone is in the area and wouldn't mind, I would really appreciate it, and would pay for shipping and a few extra bucks for your trouble.
I would also like to get one of these brushes. I even tried to find the website, but couldn't get past all of the restaurants with the same name.
Let me know if anyone decides to go back to this store!
Thanks!

If anyone is going I'd love to be able to get one. I'm even willing to pay a premium for your drive and time. PM me if you are going there.

hard to believe, but I walked right past this sign at first
This is what the stock looked like.

so does it handle like other best badger brushes? I'd be curious to find out. If so, I'd be willing to call and see if they would ship it...
Someone else will need to answer. I have no experience with it or best badger.
However it is kind of odd how inexpensive it is. Cheaper than the Shea Moisture brush (maybe not including shipping)

Yep. That's the place. They get new shipments in every 10 days. They don't always get in everything. I don't know what determines what they have or not.
I didn't realize I was discussing a secret fishing hole...

It seems Italians are lucky for this 
anyone know if they still carry these? I called but I'm not sure we were on the same channel..
there were no more left last tuesday, but they said they could order more.
i don't feel like they are company to ship, but maybe...
Is it this? (see page 3 of products, top row, far right)

Great company story in "About" tab. No idea who makes it for them. Does it look familiar to anyone? Might be great value, don't know about shipping cost, but they list it at $9.99 in their online store.
