M**tic fiftynine appreciation campaign

Given that most if not all of us have used Marks videos at one time or another I thought it would be nice to send him something as a token of our appreciation. I don't know what exactly, just floating the idea.

Given the amount of consumption most of us readily admit to and the amount of money you have saved as a D.E shaver :shock: I thought £2.50 (cost of a pint) from (15 +) members is not unreasonable to hope for.

I was thinking of purchasing an "English/European selection" of products or a couple of high end bits n pieces, the floor is open.

Register your willingness and any ideas here please...

This sounds like a great idea. I'm in. I am assuming he has a rather large stash of shaving products already, but would he have any of Henk's of Nanny's products yet? These are tried and tested soaps that are very popular among TSR members, with the added bonus that we sort of 'discovered' them. Perhaps we could send Mark a couple of soaps from each? A gift from TSR that kind of represents us too.
 
I'm up for that. The benefit of sending Sharon or Henks bits also means that it can increase their exposure across the water too! Everyone is a winner! :D

Yes, that's the idea.

Maybe a balm from Henk and a soap from Nanny? I'm not familiar with their latest offerings tbh.

I bet he hasn't tried some base line products like Palmolive or Ingram's either, stuff that isn't commonly sold on-line.

I'm pretty sure I've seen him talk about almost all the 'drugstore' brands from Western Europe at least... of course I could easily be conflating him with someone else :?

I could always ask him?
 
He's certainly blogged about that type of stuff. He recently asked on B&B where in the UK they are available and the prices as he is compiling a video for a UK grooming website. I'm up for something, as mentioned maybe Nanny's and Henk's stuff is the best bet.

I asked him some time ago and he was quite clear he was ok, but times change...

Wonder how Mrs Mantic reacts to all the shaving gear there :lol: :lol: :lol:
