Free Mergress Conversion Contest

Post by Mer »

Hello Everyone,

Here's your chance to have your Merkur Progress upgraded to a Mergress for free!

You will have your choice of the standard or the longer knob along with your choice of dot colors.

Like all of my conversions your razor will have the new knob installed, the razor will be calibrated and the action tuned to provide the best performance possible.

Shipping will be free in the United States and only $10 internationally.

You will need to provide your own Merkur Progress.

The Rules:

You enter this contest by making a post in this thread.

Only one post/entry per person please.

Your post number which I will assign based on the date and time you posted you posted will be your entry number.

You must post your entry by 9:00 AM Central Standard Time Wednesday June 24th to be eligible.

Posts made after this date and time (6/24/09 9:00am CST) will not be entered.

The winner will be chosen by an online random number generator at http://www.random.org/

Remember, you can send me your existing Progress or order one from the vendor of your choice and have it shipped to me for the free conversion.

Have fun and thanks everyone for your continued support,

Eric

Just a final clarification, this is for the conversion only not a complete razor.

Seems too good to be true. I just used my Progress this morning after sitting idle for a couple months.

Thanks Eric!

I don't wish to enter, and if I win, please bypass me, but was curious about this.

Whoops, good catch John,

The other board has the post numbers in the upper right hand corner.

I'll manually count all the posts and assign a number before making the selection.

Thanks!,

Eric

WOW, I just got home from work and found the good news. Now I've got to go shopping and find a Progress so I can have it converted.

Thanks Eric!

One final rule: You have to post a picture in the razor forum when you receive your Mergress.

I sure will. I just ordered a Progress from BullGoose and had it shipped to Eric so now the wait for this beauty begins.

The Mergress arrived yesterday and as promised, here is a picture. I sent Eric a logo and asked him to use the colors from it. The final results are stunning and I'm quite happy with this new acquisition. The razor was loaded today with a new Swede and I'll give it a test drive tomorrow.

Thanks again Eric for running this contest. You do impressive work!

Hey, that matched pretty good. I was going from memory with the purple and had to mix red and blue to make it. Not too bad if I do say so myself...

:D

Thanks again for your participation and congrats!!!
