Right here goes my head is bursting with all this will I or won't i
its a situation I never thought I would be in but there you go obsession is a dreadful thing.
Do any of you lads have one ? do you want one ? and if so why ?
Know its adjustable and I know its completely different from my feather but is it like for like if you know what I mean or is the only similarity the price ?.
I am buying this today unless someone in forum land tells me its not worth it :eek:

I was in your shoes a couple of months ago, spoke to a few people on here who have one and all the advice was the same. Yes it's a lot of money but once you get it and start using it, you feel that its worth it.

I've been using mine almost exclusively for a few weeks now and while I'm no expert. Its easily the best razor I've ever held or used.

Take the plunge...you won't regret it.

Ps...Connaughts using the discount code works out the cheapest...I meticulously searched this..unless you're going second hand.
 
I wondered how long it would take for you to arrive here! :ROFLMAO:
Gotta keep you fellas straight, you're too tempted by all the bling vendors!

No, no, no, no no!!!!! Not another Rex Ambassador owner on the forum! :eek:

Look, all I can say, is that if it's too late and you have already taken the plunge then there is a support group in this very forum...If I remember correctly is called something like The Wayward Ambassadors Thread:unsure:... look it up...do it now...don't be too late for the sake of everyone's sanity!
 
Ok Boys to late the damage is done. Bought it from the gentlemans groom room Dundee.
I knew I wanted it so why not.
I don't know what im looking for but I know my feather isn't the answer
Think im looking for a bit more aggression so its bought along with stand and another 10 packs of blades (y)
im still seriously looking at the ikon B1 as its eating away at me
 
Surely you need to pay the same kind of cash for a decent vintage.
Especially in tip top condition
You can buy lots of very good vintage razors for far less than the price of a Rex. On the other hand, I have spent more on a single fountain pen (twice) than a Rex costs, and I use the fountain pens far less frequently than a razor.
Sometimes that bug just gets in your head and it won't go away...I always make a joke of it but I do secretly envy those who own a Rex...but then again my own 'defence against the dark arts' spell is to chant a list of all the things I could buy with the cash instead of a Rex...and that's one hell of a lot of cool stuff for shaving or otherwise!:)

Well that's that then. BTW, when you've tried it out, don't forget to let fellow Rex owners @Boycie83 and @Dcshaves know how it went...it will cheer them up no end. They're both currently in a special home for the clinically insane...I believe they went in together for mutual support. Ahh! Isn't that nice?:rolleyes::sneaky::)
