Razors for Sale!

      So alas the time has come! My razor collection has gotten entirely out of hand. My obsession with RAD and restoring razors caught up with me and I have found that I simply have way to many razors. Its seems to me while it is ok to have some that maybe are collected and only used occasionally that these are objects of function, objects that should be used. The way it is now I simply am not putting many of them to use. Not because they aren't good, they are excellent, just because I have so many that I can put a razor in my "rotation" and not get to using it for months and months. That is simply wrong.
I have listed a couple razors to get the ball rolling. Here they are:


Standard Razor , Used Twice
$59 Shipped (CONUS)
email me: jim@WetShaveObsession.com


Filarmonica DT #14, 7/8"+ Near Mint Restoration (I cant take credit- bought it this way)
$210 Shipped (CONUS)
email me: jim@WetShaveObsession.com


Like New 5/8" Henckels Twin Beauty. Used Twice!
$100 Shipped (CONUS)
email me: jim@WetShaveObsession.com


      There will be many more added. These are painful enough to start with (well the Filly is anyway). The Standard Razor, well it shaves very well, I just dont like the way they handled a buddy of mine who was distributing their products so they have to go. The Henckels will make a fine addition to anyone's rotation!
      Stay Tuned for more additions!
      Enjoy Your Shaves!
      Regards,

Back In Business

      First and foremost I would like to say Thank You. Thank You to the entire Wetshaving community for your thoughts and support over the past year. My immediate family was turned upside down due to a very serious medical issue that befell my Mother. While Mom's life will never be the same I am glad to say she is home and surrounded by loved ones, at one point I was not so sure I would ever be able to say that again so for that I am truly grateful.
      I am now in a position to resume my hobby and passion and once again share the fruits of it with the public. The way I will be going about doing this is going to be a little bit different than in the past. There will be no more WetShaveObsession Etsy Store. All sales will be done direct, through me, via my website or email.
      The product descriptions and information can all be found on my website, http://www.WetShaveObsession.com. You can order the products by simply going to the Contact Us tab on the website or you can simply email me your order information. Upon receiving your order I will send you a paypal invoice. Once the invoice is paid your order will be processed and the products shipped to your door.
      It is my hope that this new system will accomplish a few things. First of all the goal is to keep this a small and very personal operation. I will be dealing with every single customer on a one on one basis. This is a part of this hobby I love, the interacting with fellow wetshavers, discussing the hobby and the products both Hardware and Software that go along with it. I have had several people tell me that this is a mistake and no way to grow a business, to those people I say the goal was never to grow a business in the first place! The goal was and is to pursue this hobby that I love and share it with other fellow wetshavers. By setting things up this way I will get to do just that on a more personal level and I will be able to provide a level of service that people truly deserve. Sounds like a ton of fun to me!
      Another thing that will be changing is that I will be selling off quite a bit of restored razors and brushes from my own personal collection. This decision came about when I realized quite simply I have too much stuff! While it is nice to have a very large collection of Razors and Shaving Brushes the fact is they just are not getting the use they deserve. My intention is to use everything I restore but the reality is it just does not happen. Its time to get some hardware into the hands of people that will put it to more use. It is often hard for me to let go of something I have restored but I decided I can take joy in the fact that someone is getting joy out of the restoration I did, putting it to good use. That is, after all, the bottom line. You can keep an eye out on social media as well as my website for upcoming hardware offerings.
      First I am easing back into the sale of my soaps, aftershaves, pre-shaves and razor care products. I will be adding in a razor or brush here and there as well. Once the sale of Software products is more reestablished and running smoothly, I will then add in more and more Hardware options like razors and brushes. At some point in the future Id like to explore a few options like Vintage Starter Sets as well as Eco Friendly Starter sets utilizing Bamboo Shave Bowls, A Vegan Shave Soap Offering, Synthetic or Horse Hair Bristle Vintage Brush Restores, and Organic All Natural Aftershaves. These are just a couple things I have an interest in doing in the future but for now I will be focusing primarily on getting the Software (ie Soaps, etc) Offerings nack into the hands of the wetshaving public!
      So once again, Thank You, and if you would like information on my products please feel free to visit http://www.WetShaveObsession.com. There you can order products by clicking on the Contact Us tab or by emailing me at jim@WetShaveObsession.com (ignore the Etsy Store Links until I have the Site updated and get them removed). Also you dont just need to be placing an order to email me, feel free to drop me a note anytime to chat wetshaving!
Enjoy Your Shaves!
