I got the G3
 
Apart from the occasional junk mail, I'm only waiting on 2 razor heads from Charcoal Goods - the Basic head + Basic Open Comb razor head. Does anybody here own any of their gear as I'm thinking of getting one of the premium razors next year as I love the design, especially the look of the handles :)

It's only a one year sabbatical you know

Lol :LOL::)(n)
Yes, went a bit silly. Didn't want to miss out on anything. Guess that does defeat the purpose of the sabbatical.
Do a get a gold sabbatical banner if I can do it over two years?

End of day I can trade high tier soaps & splashes for 2018 APR releases as @todras are tier one in my books.
 
How do you manage spoilage of these larger sized products?

The flacons are kept in there original presentations in a cool dark place. They will keep just fine.
I sell decants from the flacons, 10, 20, 30ml atomisers. If you find the flacons at the right price then the decants simply cover the cost so your own large portion is free.
Break even point on the Dior 450’s was selling 150ml. Creed 500 was around 250ml. Bottom line is I’ve got 850ml Of quality Parfum there for free...

These are the final 4 20’s I’ve put up for sale from the Creed.

@UKSteve, your images are beautiful. But, could you please scale them?
They are enormous, both on my screen and file-size (751KB).
I'm not angry. Just offering a friendly suggestion.

I really enjoy your posts. I just think the images could be a little more browser-friendly.
I hope this doesn't come across as a downer.

I agree, resize your bloody images ffs..that goes for anyone else too, especially in the bloody SOTD posts. Nothing is more unattractive on a Desktop than having to scroll past a screen filling sotd than runs 3 pages.

540
720
960
1080

Let's keep the AR correct too when we do it, a majority of the online hosts will suggest the size and ratio to keep, you need to run with these suggestions and not get 'creative'. Imgur and many other free online image hosters offer image resizing as part of their platform and I am happy to show people how to use these functions.

tinypic.com and postimage.org both recommend 640*480 for message boards

My phones default camera setting saves images at 5344*3008 at about 3.5MB per image.... my poor old internet browsing Android tablet would soon end up out the window and being used as a frisbee if it had to process 20*SOTD posts per page with similar sized images :)
 
@RustyBlade looking forward to your feedback on this brush, as I find the handle is too long for my hand.

Be a few weeks or month before it comes in. Personally at this point in time I donot like large handles i.e. Yaqi's so should be good.
Have a RazoRock 400 Synthetic and love the shape and length, YMMV.
