The group's bulk order arrived earlier to our warehouse in New Jersey and many of the individual packages have already shipped back out. However, upon taking inventory of everything received, our team was made aware of a backorder affecting a small handful of units. Rest assured, we've reached back out to the vendor to resolve this hiccup and expect to have the remaining units in our warehouse shortly.
Expect another update from us on 6/3 or sooner if something comes up.

What lathering method is the brush best suited to?
I face lather, and use 23-24mm wide knots with a 50mm loft in Finest for face lathering. I find that works perfectly for me. The Finest in these dimensions has a nice balance of stiffness and softness, and just feels luxurious and substantial without being floppy.
I believe Silvertip is softer and floppier? The knot also looks to be on the slightly long side. I imagine this brush is better suited to bowl lathering? What is the lenght of the knot (specs give 25mm as width, but no length)?
Also, can anyone say whether a glass bowl of Tabac will fit on the 4 piece bowl platform OK without bumping into the bottom of the brush and razor? Or a vintage Old Spice mug (I keep Mitchell's Wool Fat in this one), or a plastic tub of Proraso/Omega soap?
I think I'm going to spring for the 4 piece set. I looks pretty nice in chrome, IMO.
P.S. Oh, I see Xris_S gave some measurements for the bowl size. The glass Tabac jar is pretty high. Looks like it may not fit in place of the bowl.

dsSaccount1: I believe that's the correct model number. I've been using this set for the better part of the last year and I inherited it from my late stepfather who had been using it since at least as far back as 2009 or so. The silvertip knot holds up well and only occasionally sheds a hair. The biggest issue with the brush that I have is that you have to get used to holding it closer to the hair than you instinctively would because of the length of the handle while you're building lather. The handle length is really nice for applying it to your face, though.
d111: the bowl is approximately 3" in diameter and 1.5" deep
