Just had a chance to measure. When closed up for travel it is 9.8cm tall by 3.5cm wide.I’m considering this brush for my travel kit. Would you be able to confirm the packed dimensions with the brush in travel mode. Length and diameter of the travel tube? thanks.
You are right just performed a search from my usual uk sellers and none of them are advertising blades for sale anymore. Not sure why thoughAnd with that, I am out...
A bit of a strange way to get out of the month of restraint, with more regret than progress.
Ok, I noticed DE blades had left UK eBay so I sent a message to a seller, and he said that pretty much overnight UK eBay took down all listings for blades. They even went to the extent for removing previous records of past sales as well.
One of the last listings left were for some Treet Platinums for a good price (200 for just under £8), and I purchased them, but the strangest thing happened. They took away the sale. I've bought countless from eBay over the years, this is the first time it has happened.
So even though I bought something and ended the GRUME, the listing for the item was taken down.

There were some other blades I was planning to buy but no longer can. It's still possible to buy blades from abroad but they are a lot more expensive with a lot less choice than what there was before.
I'll use one example. A few days ago you could get 200 Treet Classics for £8, today the best deal is over £20 for the same number of blades from RBC. It's not great but what can you do.
I'm anticipating foreign sales of blades will be closed soon as well, so I am going to expand my stocks whilst I still can.
A lengthy explanation for my departure, but I had to get it off my chest.
Thanks for having me, I won't be around for next month's GRUME but I might throw my name in for April.
Good luck to the rest of you fine gentlemen for the last few days.
Argh, that is painful!!!And with that, I am out...

Thanks man! Its my WR2 1.15 OC in bronze and the brush is a Rudy Vey Ocean mist resin with a Muhle STF, my only synth!
Argh, that is painful!!!
I think this online store is local to you BigDealsMart. I purchased some Wizamets from them and they shipped to Canada!
