WTB: C&S No. 88

Does not need to be a full bottle. I wore this a few years back and really liked it. It's not for everyone so I'm hoping...

Love the stuff, good luck! Hardly ever see it on ebay @ a discount and never used.

There are permanent discounts on eBay UK (new bottles for £50).

I also picked up a 2nd had bottle (sprayed once) for £30.

Lucky us.

Yeah, here is that link, £55 (~$87-89) shipped to USA whereas from C&S it sells for £80 shipped, so you could go that route.

That link was for aftershave spray. Is that what I want?

Thanks, guys!

I doubt it. I'm guessing you want the Cologne.

You guessed it. I'll wait...

My bad...I don't see any bargains on the Cologne at the moment.

There's no such product as #88 aftershave spray. The seller has listed it incorrectly. Contact them. I'll eat my own socks if it isn't the cologne.

Having just read the ad, the picture is the cologne but he is selling a shaker bottle of aftershave.

This seller does have the cologne so CONTACT THEM FIRST.

Aftershave?

Spray?

Stop the World, I want to get off.

How ridiculous.

I think that because it's so expensive, they decided after customer feedback to make it easier to not waste the product. It can still be sprayed on the hands and rubbed on. Pure speculation.

Joe, Yeah, I agree, and unfortunately they are not the only ones doing it. For example, Trumpers Milk of Flowers, which was ALWAYS an aftershave product is now available in 50ml. spray only. And I've seen a few more examples of the same sort of absurdity.

Gordon

...and the 200ml #88 cologne shaker bottle seems to have vanished.

Interesting...I was wondering about that. I was able to pick one up last year from Cambridge Chemists here in the US. Of course, C&S still has the 500ml flacon, but that's a bit much for most of us!
