I had not made any shaving related purchases since buying my Duke 2 in best on July 13th. I did buy two razors for my young cousin for under $20 on the bay. Which I dont consider a purchase since they were a gift. Then yesterday I purchased a cased Fatboy my second on ebay. I bought a stick of Arko and 100 pack of astras from amazon. Finally I ordered a SOC boar in cherry from vintagescent. I hope this cools my desire for a 2 band simpson for a while. Must stay away from online shaving shops.
