Edit: Just found the option in my order screen to extend the automatic cancel timeline. I added another 30 days. Hopefully they'll get it moving by then.

Well, It was really irking me that it hadn't shipped. So I started looking at the seller, and reviews. Looks like there are a ton of one-star reviews (40% rating) saying the item didn't ship. Not sure what item those reviewers bought, but it dawned on me that someone was trying to scam on aliexpress. I selected cancel order. Hopefully, it processes through quick and without issue.

Just another example of the age-old adage, "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is."

Ooh well.

Thanks guys. It's no big deal. Just wish I had seen the reviews before I went through the purchase... Or waited a week. Lol.

Live and learn, live and learn. All that means is it's time to go shopping again.

Holy #&$%!

Would anyone believe the Hendrix shipment is back in Jersey again?!

WTF USPS?!

Had a lovely shave this evening with more of the sample of Hendrix Havana breeze (thanks again Pete123 ). It looks like I may be able to eek out another two shaves from this. Will it be enough? Lol. I'm just flabbergasted at the keystone cops level of incompetence from the USPS. I may need to open a new ticket, once it's lost in Jersey again.

Nonetheless, a good shave was had with the Henson. Closely shaven and smelling great! Have a good Sunday DFS.

Well, a sad evening it is...

I just heard back from Andrew from APshaveCo. The 2BED Synth isn't going you be available any longer. I was one 26mm knot short of completing my brushes.

Time to find something else, I guess.

That's a bummer to hear about the 2BED. I really liked the 26mm and its Fan shape.

This one might be similar... but I honestly don't know for sure:

Strangely enough, they don't have it in 26mm, but pretty much every other size.

I actually had a spare AP version, as well as a 30mm Oumo version. The AP version is working its way west as I type this. Us Oscuro hombres look out for our own  Tongue

That's probably it!

I have been talking with Andrew, there is a replacement enroute... A few months out.

When he mentioned the discontinued brush, he said his manufacturer... So he definitely buys them. It's my understanding that Oumo is one of the big vendors. So, this very well could be it.

Regarding the replacement. According to Andrew, it'll look similar on shape and colors, but be a g5 brush like his new one. I've seen mixed reviews on that one, so it could very well be the end of a whole look (for me). Still, thanks to a great friend, I'm going to be able to complete my brush lineup I currently have. So life is good.
