A big +1 to this! You can also check out Sue's place (Mama Bear) for soap. She has a large following here also. I'd check the classifieds first (or Kenrup) for your first razor. You will be getting a quality razor at a very reasonable price. Our members have reputations to protect so you won't be getting junk. Plus, it will likely be shave ready (it will be so indicated in the ad). If you insist on getting a new razor then check out Straight Razor Designs, Vintage Blades and Classic Shaving. The latter 2 will require an extra charge to hone it for you. But that's only $20 so it's very reasonable (your face will appreciate it).
