Thread: Thiers Issard

I ordered the razor from Home. After I had pressed the buy button and payed through paypal i was sent a confirmation email from The Invisible Edge website. Said it would take maximum 10 business days for the item to arrive.

One thing I really like about the TI website was the fact that whatever price listed is all you pay. Their wasn't any shipping fee's or anything like that - just one payment to cover it all on their end. Also the fact that they give very detailed pictures of the item with many different angles for inspection.

I've ordered darts and flights from the UK many times and never payed any customs but most purchases were 100$ or under while this ones over $400. I don't imagine weight will be much of a factor in the shipping since the whole package is probobly only a pound or under but we'll see.

The wait is going to suck

Well then you ordered from a reseller in the UK, not from the brand itself.

Thiers Issard is French and does not sell directly so no regrets to have though !

Decided not to shave my face until it arrives to see how sharp it is, and save money on cartridges since my mach 3 is in need of new ones.

FWIW, a few years ago I ordered a TI from Steve (Invisible Edge) because they were the best deal on that model at the time. Came in a timely manner (to the USA) and was honed to perfection. A 100% satisfactory transaction. I'm sure your's will be the same.

Just wait for it... I've shaved every day for almost 4 weeks now.... 3 passes every day. You'll see

Good point. Shaves are always easier with a few days growth, imo.

Oh I'm totally addicted! It's become part of my morning ritual! 3 passes a day for almost 4 weeks, no razor burn, no ingrown hairs, once you get into this hobby and get proficient at it you just can't stop!

+1 to that Brooksie

Yup, since I started a year and a few months ago I have gone maybe three days max w/o shaving. Before I tried to avoid it for as longs as possible. Meaning, let it grow out before it really started bothering me-itching and such.
