Waiting for two items, one in the mail from ebay (a vintage Gillette Tech by the look...) and a shop here in Milwaukee (The Brass Rooster, actually a "vintage style" hat shop_ was out of the the Merkur 45 Bakelite so i am waiting for that to come in as well.
 
I am still waiting for an order of Dominica Bay Rum. I ordered it from a vendor on Amazon 20 days ago and they keep saying they are expecting delivery in a week. I know that I will never use this vendor again.
 
I bought a 6-pack sampler of shave creams from TSD. Musgo, some Trumpers, TSOB, and T&H. I've only used Proraso before, so I'm very excited!
