Post office tracking number shows it was delivered but the UPS store where I keep a PO box says they don't have it. If it turns out to be lost it is the first time but I sure wish it has been a package of shave soap or something other than this particular item. It makes me feel a little sick to tell you the truth.JayTrek wrote:So you won the thing...and it just vanished?

First package I've lost, ever.

Scott,
No need to be sick. Wasn't your fault. I once had a package deliverd to my neighbors house. They were on vacation and it sat on their front porch for a week before my curiosity got the best of me. I went across the street to look and discovered it was mine. Stuff happens. Maybe it will turn up.

UPS called me this morning, they found the package.

Hi there,ScottB wrote:II've read that these were mild shavers which is what I'm hoping for. The NEW is supposed to be more aggressive.

One thing those Old Types aren't is a mild shaver. I've tried lots of OC types over the years and that head design has one hell of a bite. Heh, on my face those things feel like about the #11 setting on my Gillette adjustable.
Some NEW types are sorta mild, especially the ones with longer teeth. Others such as the NEW Deluxe are pretty aggressive.
I'll be curious what you think of the Old Type performance.

Interesting. I've read that the Old Type was relatively mild...for an OC.L. Martino wrote:Hi there,ScottB wrote:II've read that these were mild shavers which is what I'm hoping for. The NEW is supposed to be more aggressive.

I guess we are going to find out.
It sure is nice looking. Original finish, like new basically.
Perhaps it will cut through my beard on Monday morning when I've skipped shaving over the weekend. It might be able to takeover for my Vision for that particular job. I wasn't planning on starting a museum so I hope its a shaver.
