1. Enchante' -- high end soaps and creams, Simpson Brushes and great smelling scents.

2. Classic Shaving -- razors, soap and grooming stuff

3. Trumper's -- best smelling stuff this side of heaven

4. Penhaligons -- second best smelling. . . .

I have tried a few but I like classic shaving best.

classic shaving.com is super for a lot of Items.
I like www.handamerican.com for the flat bed hones (strops actually, pasted one side with .5 micron paste and othe is like a red russian strop, similar to a paddle strop.)
e-shave white tea cream,
anthony sport cream,
col. conk soaps.
Pinaud aftershaves,
also FloridaWater.
Burt's Bees Bayrum Aftershave balm is a real wake up call.

Wow.

I've had good luck buying and trading with members,
and ordering online, and shopping in person.
Crabtree&Evelyn-much maligned, but IMHO some of the finest creams/soaps available
TheGentlemensShop-one of the best etailers I've dealt with. Incredibly fast shipping.
QED USA-good etailer, has some unique soaps I like packaged in tubs like cream-convenient! Also got Castle Forbes cream here-awesome stuff
NorvaBarbersupply-Illinois 361 strop, unbreakable mug
Walgreens-palmolive lather and brushless, as well as williams and pinaud
Tilly-barber hones
Classicshaving-waiting patiently (like everyone else) for 2 club razors (whoo hoo!) Trying to decide whether to get that dovo paddle strop
ThePerfectEdge(I think) Howard Schechter(sp) I got some Belgian stones, EXCELLENT, expensive but seem like they will last my lifetime.
TQHedonist-Dovo Bismarck(shave ready out of the box!) that I am almost afraid to use because I don't want to mess it up.
The list goes on.
