I was going to buy Clay Pomade which is normally $18, but amazon has it for $16 no tax. I'd check with amazon before making any purchases with them.

Every single "review" of their product seems to be posted by someone with almost no posts on SF (all under 100, and most w/ less than 10 posts), and at least a couple unhappy reviews seem to be at least partially due to the customer not really being clear what they want (ex one guy complained the pants were too low rise + tight)... Not saying the company isn't ****... but the thread would be much more useful with some input by a forum member where we know that he knows his stuff.

Sound, sound advice. Amazon prime for life. I even buy my deoderant and dental floss from them. Cheaper than msrp almost every time, sometimes significantly, no tax, free 2 day shipping. Not having to pay for gas to go to a brick/mortar, etc. Maybe the state needs my taxes. Maybe brick and mortars need my business. But hey I'm a sheisty mofo and I'm at peace with that. In fact I don't even pay for amazon.com prime. I'm leeching it from a friend who added me as a heterosexual life-friend or something.

agreed but the fact someone from the company posted a customers name and ragged on him was pretty terrible. (as was the PR job they tried to spin afterwards)

^ Fair enough. There are also reasons why the more experienced members haven't gone ahead and tried their service out, especially since their prices aren't too bad for MC standards. There are simply better makers out there. And

Kelv, how do you compare Baxter's pomade to say Bumble and Bumble or Aveda, assuming you've tried those?

To take advantage of this offer, use the promo code "DAD" and get 20% off!

got some silent shorts I'd been eyeing on lncc..

know I sized them wrong tho...or at least pretty certain. just had to go with the 'better too big than too small' approach...

anyone who may have wanted the silent shorts in ivory (s), and missed them, feel free to PM...

small should measure 29.2" waist

I haven't tried Aveda, but I have tried the B&B. The baxter is also matte but has much better hold. The little bottle lasts a long time since you don't have to use that much. Only problem is that it's a bit annoying to wash off your hands/hair but it's not that big of a deal.

Thanks for the insight. Think I'll try out the baxter. Been using Aveda grooming clay, but hold hasn't been great.

Does LN-CC deduct VAT for non EU customers? Also looks like they ship with DHL, anyone know how they are with customs fees?
