It wouldn't be for us, we've already got it or we know how to get it. They stock what they can sell to the other 99 %. :wink:

that's the problem, very few of us are actually going to oh give input, and because only 12 of the 400 people who care about wetshaving and wetshaving products will comment, they have no actual economic interest to do anything.

its just a fake public relations stunt

I recall once when I was in graduate school with the kids and family and a full-time job, the personnel gentleman at my company asked me to accompany him to a job interview session at the university sponsored by my company. I was enjoying talking to all of the candidates hopeful for a real job and giving my input. At the end of the session, after everyone had met with us and had conversations, I begin to discuss the candidates, in terms of which ones he might be interested in and why. He said oh Gary, you need to know that we are not hiring anyone, this was just a public relations function. That means I have wasted my entire day and more importantly we wasted the other folks' time.

It looks like Mr. Target Wetshaving got promoted to Petcare, so we probably won't be seeing much of him anymore. At least he reached out to us. Sure, he was after profit, but so are the wetshaving retailers favored on the forums. The Pacific Caffeinated shaving cream they sell is pretty good.
