Extremely fast postage from Canada Post, and for the Australia post hand off.

Mine arived in Oregon 21.12, awaiting other bits and pieces to arrive so I can send them ( Damn you Scott@ DG, stop releasing new soap and splash releases every week.).

Actually, just realised looking at the packaging that it was posted from Niagara Falls, NY on 18th December so credit must go to USPS!

Must have walked across the border as the seller knew Canada post has snail mail service.

1 x spare Ferrule for Alpha T-400 Aluminium Brush in Polished Silver

Massive thanks to @Vlasta for his excellent customer service by chucking in a free spare Ferrule and the packaging and finish is second to none!
I've decided to save some $$$ and purchase a Titanium DE to pair with this beauty in 2022 as the mirror polish and machining looks amazing!!!

The last of my black friday sales items from North America finally arrived today. Shipped from Canada 28/12/20. Arrived in Australia 14/01/21. Also going to be the last of my purchases for a while (except for some bits and bobs I'm still waiting for).

That sounds like a familiar comment on P&C .
