Is Vintage blades the only place to purchase Rooney brushes online?

Anytime. Like I'm obsessed with brushes or something 
If you don't mind them rebranded there's always Truefitt & Hill. Make sure to use coupon code BB10 for 20% off as well. No brush obsession here. 
It's just being a smart shopper. They're good to offer that discount for the crowd, really helps make things more accessible.
Good business is where you find it.

Thanks a lot for the responses, I shall make my choice soon.
Jim and Erin at Vintae Blades have been really helpful with my previous orders; I bought my Rooney from them (3/1 Super), as well as the one my dad uses now (3/1 Pure).
Careful clicking around Classic Shaving - they don't actually have stock of half of the Rooney brushes they list (it's clear after you click on the item, but it's disappointing to see that giant list of brushes and not be able to order the one you want).

Yea I think I just might choose Vintage blades after all, since Classic shavings brushes are mostly out of sock.

Lookit that bloom! Awesome! Is it really dense? I'm obsessed with density right now. That's a gorgeous brush..
Very nice choice on the 3/1. The Rooney 3/1 is a great all-around brush that works well with soaps and creams. Congrats!

It's pretty dense, here is a review of the brush. http://badgerandblade.com/vb/showthread.php?ltr=R&t=92027

It seems like all the 3/1's that I see are different. The bloom on that bad boy is huge. The 3/1 I have has a short loft and tight bloom. Love that brush!
Excellent brush, Mick!
My brush is starting to bloom a bit like that as well. Its an awesome brush with whatever you put in front of it.

Thanks guys. It shed a few hairs today, should stop shortly though. And the loft is 48mm I believe. The bloom looks bigger in the pic than it does when you're holding it.
