Your "What was I thinking exactly...?" purchases

Now, you may be the kind of person that always does an extensive and thorough research before putting in a bid or buying something - in that case this is not the thread for you.

If you're however like me - you sometimes bought things (I admit, often eBay) because it felt like a good idea at the time. You may, also much like myself, have a small shrine (read: cardboard box) set up where you keep these brilliant purchases on non-display.

Tonight I realized I ended up being the proud (it's a strong word, sure) owner of this vintage Emporio Armani razor-brush set in, I think, pewter. Sure, it only set me back $7.50 but that's also 1.5 feet of Subway sandwiches here.

So, anyone else who have some treasures of the shame-buy-box that they want to share?

I haven't gotten there yet with Shaving related items however with cigars bought online... That's another story lol

I'm sure I can dig out some old souls......

Soapy Bathman Bacon scent.

The performance is awesome like all his other products.

But the scent was a 100% exactly like it was described--which was Smoky Bacon.

I thought it would be cool and different when I decided to hit the "add the cart" button.

But when I actually tried it, the bacon scent as a soap was kinda gross. The brush I used to lather it up also smelled like Bacon.

The scent from what I see has since been discontinued.

The Black Magic scent and all his other scents (from what I read) is awesome.

Same story, but with this soap.

I like the stand and the handle on the brush is interesting too. I wouldn't call it an all together fail.
