    that definitely sucks big ones
    certainly keep the eyes open on line & truly hope they make it back to you
    this is why I can’t let myself send my Heirloom str8 out for refurb and it isn't anywhere near the true value or quality as these are

    Hi all,
    A special ask today, a good friend of me have send these razors for honning and they were lost by the post, the parcel is marked as delivery but the guy never sign for it.

    Those are some nice razors to have vanish. Sorry to hear it. I am quite sure I wouldn't be pleased. I don't know how the post man could have marked them as delivered if they never got a signature. That is a situation where you want to yell at everyone.

    Problem is; they were signed for...this is getting to be very common especially for high class goods. The carrier may have them; just scribbled a name or a neighbor signed for them in the owners name.
    I have seen posts like this on another forum... usually a custom or very high class straight.
    Could be the thieves have a group of names taken from quality purveyors and watch the thrads for who is sending what to whom.
    It started In Italy with custom knife deliveries and has spread from there to the US also.

    Perhaps sending from a friend's house and name and a hold at Post Office for pick-up with ID may help.

    Yeah, a catch-22. If the package is insured for a bundle, they can tell with a quick scan that something of value is inside.
    Almost better to send ordinary plain slow boat uninsured. Won't raise a thief's attention? The insurance money will never buy some like that again, IMO

    As far as I understand this is a law enforcement matter - somebody signed for the recipient without being authorized to do so. I'd say the biggest chance for this to be recovered is to work through the relevant law enforcement agency.

    How about making this thread a "sticky" until some resolution is found?

    I really don't understand from what country these are missing? U.S., I would say get with the Postal Inspector.
    We will all look out, for certain!

    Update : good news, the complait I filed has put things in motion, the razors magically reappeared yesterday and are on their way.

    The thing is : they were never signed for, they were just "lost" in one of the postal centers around my place. And they tend to lose things easily.
    This same month, I've had a parcel marked as "delivered in the box" in the dashboard, never arrived, and when I filed a complaint, I was told "the delivery guy is right". Ok.

    Many thanks for your concern and your help.

    The conclusion of the story is never again will they transit via postal services
    Beautiful is important, but when all is said and done, you will always be faithful to a good shaver while a bad one may detter you from ever trying again. Judge with your skin, not your eyes.
