Gents--
I happened to be in Austin today, so I popped by Charles Roberts' place to look at all the toys
I also inquired about Coates, as the usual sources seemed to be out of stock. I was told that Coates might not reach these shores again until Fall, due to some sort of packaging issue. So if you happen across some (as I did), best stock up on your favorites....

Mark, Thanks for the heads up, I'll certainly keep it in mind when I visit NYC in a couple of weeks. Did you get any pots of Coate's at Enchante, and if so, how is the consistancy? I haven't personally seen a fresh pot of Coate's shave cream since the end of the 1990s. Every pot I've actually examined in NYC shops has been dehydrated to a greater or lesser degree, and the one pot I ordered last year from Enchante was also ( although certainly not as badly as some I've seen ). I've been reluctant to order Coate's in the pot from anyone since then. I like a couple of their creams, but I go through the tubes in no time, and anyway, the tube cream is a lighter weight product, compared to the pots. Thanks. Regards, Gordon
