You're in luck! With some hunting I managed to find the same thing I got on Ebay for 95p more.
Here you go!
> I would like to clarify that my options of purchasing safety razors are limited, as i do not reside in the US. My country simply does not use DE razors anymore, and thus it's hard for me to find or try them other places than online.
Regardless of your country, DE razors are a fairly rare item to find in retail stores which is why almost everyone buys them online. Also, very few DE razors are made in the U.S. Most of them are made in Europe or Asia so I don't see how living outside the U.S. would prohibit you from finding a good razor fairly inexpensively (unless you are in Australia, where shipping is a killer).
As for that kit, you have a cheap razor, cheaper brush, cheap (but decent) soap and Derby blades. Personally I wouldn't buy it. Even looking for super-cheap gear you can do a lot better.
If I was going to buy from Amazon UK and my budget was around $20, this is what I would go for:
This will run you around £21, and includes a more solid razor than the Shaving Factory kit, a better brand of brush and a sampling of different blades.
It was almost 7 pounds for both brush and soap. Here is the amazon link:

This is my first ever DE kit so I have nothing to compare it to, but even after the first time I used it, I got a way better shave than I did with my old electric razor.
Thank you for your response! I might end up buying the rocket and one of the techs.
It is possible to order one stick! There's also a deal which offers an arko stick and a brush for $5: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Arko-Shaving-Stick-Bristle-Brush/dp/B004NTMR1O/ref=sr_1_3?s=drugstore&ie=UTF8&qid=1343133826&sr=1-3
Do you think that is good, or is it too cheap to be true? Sadly, I can't find the Omega 40033 on amazon.co.uk, and I would prefer to order from there for simplicity's sake.
