Coates Availiable

Post by Shave4Fun »

I contacted the owner of this site a couple of days ago & the creams are available.
Get 'em while you can.

Thanks for the update, Roger.

I have bought a few of these off and on. He must have thousands of them in stock.

Tempted to get a few more (curious about the tea tree and almond) but I still have a decent supply of the sandalwood, lime and lavender.

They are a perfect size for travel.

I have several of these travel tubes that I got a few years ago. I'm still going through my stash, haven't had any problems with any of them. Still great creams and the scents have held up, and I haven't had any problems yet with any dehydrated tubes.
Still recommend these old Coates...get em while you can!

Recommend both! The tea tree is one of my favorites.

Andy (the seller) says if the PayPal link does not work, you can write to him and place an order. I ordered several tubes today.

I've ordered several from Andy. He's a great guy. I still have a few tubes of Sandalwood left, which is very good shaving cream.

I received my order yesterday. All appear ready to use. And even if they are a little dry, they can be re-hydrated.

The Coates is really good stuff. I like to use C.O. Bigelow (Proraso green, old formula) every now and then, but Coates is so much better.

I told Any I'd post about this on our forum, so if you buy from him, please tell him where you heard about it.

Ciao,
Roger
