I'm in
First of all, thank you for such a generous PIF!
I'm not certain how "new" of a wet-shaver you had in mind when deciding to do this PIF, but I've been wet-shaving for less than a year (since late April 2016). During that time, like many of you, i acquired quite a few soaps and razors. I've been trying to cut back on my acquisitions and have gone so far as to set a budget for myself this year. The problem with trying to limit acquisitions is it limits my fun. What I have discovered is that the variety is what really attracts me to this hobby. I truly enjoy trying new soaps, razors, blades, brushes....and am finally starting to better recognize the nuances of each. When I started viewing your items, I realized the only thing I had tried out of the bunch was the Pinaud Clubman. Granted, I have a tub of the Proraso Red but I've not yet tried the cream. Having said all that, I guess the main reason I'd like your consideration is simply because I'd like to try some new products.
Another reason is because I purchased my Dad a DE setup for Christmas. He told me the other day he had already purchased some new soap and some razor blades. One of the soaps was a cream and he was amazed at how easy it was to lather up. I can already see SAD beginning for him. So I will be giving a lot of the items to him...you know, after I give them a try
Thanks again

With only two people "in" so far, it looks like I may only have to flip a coin.Trust me, I was sorely tempted! But it is going to take me a few years to work through what I have right now! I could not in good conscience (but perhaps could in poor conscience).
