Before I make more, I want to test the waters and make sure guys feel that they are getting good value. The boxes contain a variety of shaving stuff that I accumulated in the process of testing products so I could write about them in Leisureguy’s Guide to Gourmet Shaving; moving into a smaller place, I have to downsize considerably, so these surplus items must go.

I have 5 boxes, and I believe that the contents are well worth $20 plus $10 shipping (USPS Priority Mail Medium Flat-Rate Box). Contents in general include shaving soaps, pre-shave soaps, shaving cream, aftershaves, etc. Boxes are not alike—contents vary according to what I picked up. So there’s a certain gamble involved.

I packed carefully, with foam peanuts, but I imagine breakage is possible, depending on the handling. Again: a risk the buyer assumes. No returns; no exchanges.

On the whole, though, I think you will get good value and might well extend your shaving horizons in directions you like; at worst, you have some trading stock.

These first five will go to the first five who want them. Here’s the procedure:

Email me at leisureguy.wordpress@gmail.com to let me know you want to buy. I’ll then let you know whether a box is available and, if it is, my PayPal address. Shipments for this first sample are limited to the US (thus the $10 postage).

Once I receive payment, I’ll ship, and then I would like your feedback once you receive the box and inspect its contents.

UPDATE: All 5 boxes gone. Hold off on requests until next announcement.
