Hello All!
I am selling a few items in hopes of off-setting the cost of some college textbooks (hopefully at least two - maybe?). I have 3 kids in college and it's a little crazy right now.
For sale are 4 brushes with some freebies. The brushes: (1) Epsilon Independence Day LE w/Krion handle, (2) Kent BLK8, (3) Edwin Jagger EJ876 Best Badger, (4) Fine Accoutrements Red and White Stout re-fitted with a very large TGN 24mm 2 Band Finest Fan, and (5) Ever Ready 200 (red and black bakelite) restored with a 26mm TGN 2 Band Finest Bulb. UPDATE : PLEASE NOTE - the Ever Ready Brush has been pulled. It is no longer for sale.
Buy the Epsilon or the BLK8 and pick 3 freebies, each. Buy the EJ876, or the FA Stout and pick 1 freebie each. The freebies are listed below. Some are small groups of items and some are only 1 item. The value of the items vary and I will try to give preference to those who purchase the Epsilon and BLK8.
Please add $5 for CONUS shipping. International shipping will be actual cost. And of course, I will not be able to ship aftershave to an international address. Pm me with any questions.
The brushes:
1. Epsilon Independence Day Limited Edition Silvertip. SOLD
No longer available. This is the one with the Krion handle. It feels great; has good weight (think stone) and fits perfect in your hand. Specs are 27x55. I measure 27x53. Handle is 46mm tall. Comes with box and travel tube. I am the second owner. I have only used the brush 5 times. Mostly, I just used it as a display piece. I thought it was too nice to use, but it IS the best brush I have ever used. The knot is very soft, but extremely dense giving the brush good backbone - while still being pillow soft. And, it retains heat very well. It has not lost a single hair. Truly a luxurious brush. Excellent condition (just some slight wear/light scratches on the bottom paint - see picture below).
See description at: http://www.giftsandcare.com/en/epsilon-s...-55mm.html
Price: $130 SOLD
2. Kent BLK8. SOLD
Mint condition. Used maybe 6 times. Maybe lost 2 -3 hairs. Excellent brush, pillow soft and produces a ton of lather. Read all of the reviews online. This is a great brush. 24mmx60mm. Handle is 55mm.
Price: $80 SOLD
3. Edwin Jagger EJ876 Black.
New and unused. I believe the dimensions are 21x53. This is a great little brush. Produces lather easily and has a little scritch. I have two of these. I'm keeping one. It's great for traveling.
Price: $25
4. Fine Accoutrements Stout w/ very large 24mm TGN 2 Band Finest. SOLD
One of my favorite projects. Drilled out a Fine Accoutrements Stout to hold a TGN 24mm 2 band finest fan. This knot was very dense, so I opened the handle to 26mm and the knot fills the space well. It also seems very large for a 24mm knot. For comparison I have included a top down photo next to the BLK8 (see the last photo below). The FA/TGN knot is on the left and the BLK8 is on the right. Specs are 24x53, or 26x53 at the opening. Great brush that produces tons of lather. I just completed the project. I have not used the brush; only cleaned and hand lathered (4 or 5 times). There is one tiny spec of glue and one tiny scratch on the white part of the handle (I could not capture in the photo - they are hard to spot). The knot alone cost $28. Comes with a travel tube.
Price: $30 SOLD
<br /><br /><br />Freebies: <br /><br />There are 9 items to pick from as listed and pictured in the 4 photos below.<br /><br />1. Fine Accoutrement Am Blend set - 3 aftershave samples (new/unused) and a puck of Am Blend soap (used, 90%-95% remaining).<br /><br />2. Stirling sample set - Stirling Gentleman aftershave sample (used once) and a sample puck of Sharp Dressed Man shave soap in green tub (used twice - in the last picture).<br /><br />3. GONE Tabac aftershave - Almost new. Used 4 or 5 times. At least 95% remaining.<br /><br />4. GONE Proraso Red aftershave - New/unused (in box).<br /><br />5. Kent VS60 brush - Received as a gift last week. Boar brush.<br /><br />6. Edwin Jagger Pre-Shave - 2 tubes. One is used (probably 90% remaining). One new in box.<br /><br />7. Soap Smooth Versailles - Used 5x - 6x. 90% - 95% remaining.<br /><br />8. GONE Soap Smooth Cognac - Used 5x - 6x. 90% - 95% remaining.<br /><br />9.
