As you rightly say a little knowledge can be a dangerous thing, as I have noticed. I can also accept you do not get on with me, stuff happens; we'll leave it at that shall we, it is Christmas Eve?
I do however wish you well in your 'dream' to re-acquire Simpsons, 'maybe, eh?'
I'm off this post.

However suites at the Ritz and lunch meetings at the Cafe Royal and all the associated on-costs do have to be paid for and while I accept your rationale about paying for quality products there does have to come a break point when the customer recognises that it is he who is paying for the "gentlemen's" image and the sellers business luxuries not simply buying a shaving brush. Quality is quality not because it is expensive or bespoke (although the two often go hand in hand) but because the price/product/functionality and product longevity tie up. The current and classic example of that mix in shaving brushes is the 404 Badger/Boar mix.
I must have been mistaken about the section above relating to The Ritz/Cafe Royal. I thought it was included in your post?!?!?
I am glad you have been in your profession for 30 years - an admirable achievement. Because of your longevity in your chosen career I have no doubt that you have experience of 'how these meetings are conducted'. That may be in your world but not in the world that was Simpsons. I am sure you have heard this adage before - 'A little knowledge is a dangerous thing'.
I have enjoyed answering questions on here and replying to private messages but I guess you can't get on with everyone, and I guess I cannot get on with you.
