Oh hai, watch masturbators.
One set of “classic”, “vintage” (old) flathead Bergeons. 0.5mm through 1.2mm.
There appears to be some spare blades in the box too.
£15 to Jon plz. Unless someone tells me that’s too much.

On the matter of scrubbers…
Probably only of mild interest to anyone with a Wet Vac type record cleaning machine.
One thing apparent when cleaning a record is that cleanliness is down to: A) The solution used B) The ability for the brush to effectively get down into the grooves and clean them.C) The ability of the vacuum to remove all the gunk leaving the record free from drying detritus.
Years ago I put some of this nonsense on the WAM and prattled on about the soft bristle sonic cleaning brushes coming out of China. It seems things in the cosmetic world have moved on (At least on eBay) in preference to silicone vibrating facial things!
The brushes I used to buy seem harder to find so I bought what I could and have x1 new boxed spare available for your delectation and delight! (Batteries not included, implied or otherwise present)
Here:
There are thousands of very fine very soft bristles
In comparison to the VPI costing close to ten times the amount you may just be able to note the sonic cleanser can actually reach the bottom of a record groove (The VPI’s bristles are too big and sharp!) it also vibrates! What this actually does on a micro level, I don’t know but I like that it does it.

Could do with another one
Probably far more expensive than 5 years ago
Here we have a little starter set for someone thinking of converting to proper shaving for men rather than girly cartridge and canned goo face scraping…
A OneBlade Core razor, boxed with stand and 7 or 8 blades:
A Zenith B9 Boar brush with aluminium handle. no need for any special prep, it’s all been done so you get soft tips, but still a decent amount of backbone A really nice brush, but it is on the big side.
And finally a really nice limited edition soap. Phoenix and Beau Night Witch, only used about 4 times. The scent is meant to be a homage to Old Spice, but if it is, it’s a subtle homage to my nose. It is however a lovely tallow based soap, producing a great lather with a masculine scent. Normally sells for about £20, if you can find it:
Razor and brush have been sterilised.
So, getting on for £100 of good gear for £45 posted, payment to Jon please:

The Handsome Family - Singing Bones
Ghost Green Vinyl.
Copy is new but has a very severe warp, so much so that Rennie (the female half of the band) kindly sent me a free replacement.
Not sure if there are ways and means to flatten it but as it owes me nothing it’s free to a good home.
Postage will cost me £4 iirc so please donate the same, or more, to the forum fund.

I have this Etta James album. Still sealed. Looking at Discogs it’s a medium price of £12.38. So I thought £10.00 on here.
Add to normal postage to the forum slush fund from me.
If this is way out give me a sensible figure.
Cannot post until new year unless it’s a present as I’m off tomorrow midday babysitting duties.

Let me have your address and the best courier - BT OK? I’ll try and get it out tomorrow or will it be better to wait until the Christmas post dies down?
BT was meant to be RM. Dosh going straight into the fund.
A superb album, then again I love Etta James.
