It is my understanding that Ray (thirdeye) is/will be carrying them at Gentlemen's Best.
Atkinson's of Vancouver:

Also a couple of Pharmacies in New York I believe (Pasteur's, Colonial Drug)... not sure if they have web sites or not.
Of course, you can but them straight from the Manufacturer:

Yeah, the problem is that there are no more new HMW 2 band Plissons in size 12, and Vintage was out... I luckily found a place in Boston that had one left that was willing to do mail order (Colonial Pharmacy or something like that). Now, the size 14s and lower will be 3 band... So, if you find a smaller size, you may want to pick it up.
Now that I have mine, I don't mind sharing that bit of information... Also, Ray will be carrying them, and he may have gotten a shipment of the smaller ones in 2 band, so you guys may want to check with him once his get through customs.
Thanks!

Pasteur's doesn't carry Plissons to my knowledge, but there is a place a couple up blocks up that does. I can't recall the name. The problem with atkinsons is they were $70 US more expensive than Vintage Blades
& in the OP, I meant Rasage Plisson even though I said Rasage Poulin
Congratulation with your new Plisson brush !
Size 12 HMW 2 band is very nice

BTW thanks for sharing the information.

Yes, even when it's not the greatest news (small two-band HMW going extinct) it is still nice to know when something important like this is happening. BTW, I'm glad Paul found one from that place in Boston!
I was at Colonial Drug in Cambridge last week—I think Plisson may be the only brush they carry and they have a lot if not all of the line. It's where I got my Plisson shave cream.
It's a tiny tiny store—no larger than the kitchen in a cramped apartment—but its so well stocked that its incredibly dangerous for the shaver trying to reign in his acquisition disorders. Believe me, I speak from experience.

Clyde's was the place I was trying to think of, but their selection wasn't all that impressive. So, I'm really glad I found that place in Boston.
