to be honest, no dis respect for invisible edge,
but i find neil and arrowhead much better to buy things/deal with because they are so willing to help and reply quickly
i had the same problem with my first razor, i sent it off to ralfy (different forum) and i couldnt believe the difference, i dont know how i managed to shave with it now thinking back, and this was less than a month ago, having it properly sharpened completely changed my technique overnight
remember most places that say shave-ready are not. there judged shave ready by people that have never used them in there life, so how can they judge if there shave ready
personally unless someone here mentions it, about the only place i would expect one to be shave ready from is "neil miller" or a member here on the bst section
