Has anyone tried these weird brushes?

[Elecid]

This is a 5-pack of brushes from DealExtreme that I'm curious about:
Smooth Shave and Rich Lather Shaving Brush (5-Pack)

- Material: pig Hair brush + wooden handle

(I assume this means it's BOAR hair?)

- Will shipped in 5pcs of this item

(A 5-pack? For $6.00 shipping included? That seems too good to be true. Then again, this site's prices are ridiculously low for everything, and nothing I've received has been THAT bad.)

Dimensions: 4.25 in x 1.26 in x 1.26 in (10.8 cm x 3.2 cm x 3.2 cm)
Weight: 6.70 oz (190 g)

All of this seems about normal to me. Is anyone brave enough to try them? The site gets all of its stuff from Hong Kong if that makes any difference.

IMHO, they would be ideal for dusting off laptop or car dash, etc.

You could try them if you're so inclined, but at that price I wouldn't hold my breath as to the quality. Maybe they send you six because the hair falls out of them after a few shaves. Maybe they're chock full of lead. Who knows?

I doubt if it will arrive intact.

I doubt if it will arrive intact.

You mean 5pcs really means one brush that falls into 5 bits?

At that price, I may put on a white robe and sandwich board, head to the local street corner and hand out shaving brushes and Williams while I proclaim that the ProGlide is a sign that the End Is Near.

At $6 shipped, in the interest of curiosity, I have to try them.

Let me know how they are. I ordered one too

Don't look too bad.
