Rasiermesser
I purchased my razor in conjunction with a friend who did all of the leg/online work so I'm unqualified to comment on the ordering part!
As far as coming 'Shave Ready' mine wasn't bad, not great, but very shaveable. After I'd re-honed it it shaves fantastic!
I bought the Plain Jane;
6/8
I'm very, very pleased with mine!
With that said, my friend found his had a warp to it and it was returned to the factory for examination, it wasn't sent with tracking and it was 'lost' in transit.
