You gotta love when a razor you ordered is "out for delivery"
Its the small things that we get to look forward to. For me its a Wade & Butcher I picked up off ebay. I know all the recent interest causing increase in price has inflated things a bit lately for W&B, but my purchase was due to the specifics I wanted in my third razor. There was a Frederick Reynolds Sheffield with an almost identical blade profile that I watched as well. That Frederick's ebay auction ended with a price nearly as high as what I paid. So I guess I'm saying I'm not feeling like I over paid by that much. The auction said my W&B will be shave ready. If all goes well I will test that statement tonight.

If its a Frederick Reynolds or Wade and Butcher, no matter, both are great shavers. I own a few of both and enjoy each one of them very much. I will say some of the FRs can be a bit hard to hone but once you get an edge on one its there for a good while.

At least if you're in the US you'll have your razor in 2 days. Thanks to the brilliance of Canada Post us Canadians routinely have to wait 2 weeks.
In any event, enjoy your new razor

Yes, unless the driver decides not to deliver it today and it goes back to the depot until tomorrow.

My new Revisor has been sitting in Mississauga doing nothing for three days...I was about ready to call Canada Post until it was finally processed today along with my TGN knot which finally arrived in Canada as well. If all goes well both should be out for delivery tomorrow morning!
Anyone else notice that USPS seemed slow last week/early this week as well? Normally stuff from the states gets here in exactly seven days.

I had that issue a while ago...buddy wouldn't even knock, just write a note in his truck and then quickly put it in the mailbox. Called Canada Post, problem fixed. They always knock or just leave the package inside the door if it's unlocked Originally Posted by RoobtheLoob
