Wishing for a local shave shop?
I have been buying my straight shaving items over the internet for the past couple of years. What I receive usually surprises me in some aspect or another, but not always negatively. I wish there was a local shave shop where I could choose items after personally inspecting/holding/smelling, rather than ordering and hoping it's a good fit for me. I hate having to send things back.
I am curious as to how many of you wish the same. How far would you drive to go to such a stockist? I'm thinking 30-60 minutes speaking for myself. Would you be willing to pay a little more than internet prices plus shipping? If so, how much?
Anyone in the Madison, WI area interested in such a local stockist?
Best regards,
Wade
Thanks for the feedback, gentlemen
Thank you for your responses, gentlemen. I wish there were a local store where I live (Madison, WI) devoted to men's shaving needs, one that stocked TI, Dovo, and a good selection of shaving creams and soaps, brushes, stops, hones, and scents. I may just have to start one myself. Maybe even offer shaving instruction for newbies. I wonder what insurance would cost for that . . .:gth
Cheers,
Wade
