Mmmm... no invoice for me as of yet. Sent my requirements in response to the ordering email on 26.10. Have I been missed?

I think they're fulfilling invoices in order of when you originally expressed a wish to be added to 'the list' - although I'd imagine there's a geographical influence too. For what it's worth, I was added in late August and my invoice number is #0136. I wouldn't worry unless you registered interest before September.

Not really worry, just impatience. I had hoped to have it for December and I planned to use it for a whole month. Might have to wait until January....
 
I'm with you on this one Jds, I originally asked to join in mid September and sent my requirements back as soon as I got the email. But I am not expecting to get mine before this Christmas, but you never know. I just check my emails for an invoice and when that arrives I will pay and go back to waiting.

Hiya,

So can anyone tell me what the shave's supposed to be like?

Is it kinda like a Cobra SE thing with the injector angle or more of a DE feel and technique? I tried looking through a long thread and gave up after a while.

Ok, after two shaves I can sort of see what the deal is performance wise but still have a ways to go figuring everything out. It's a new to me type head that's not quite like a DE or Cobra type injector. If anything, using it reminds me of the classic 1912 kinda angle feel that so many members enjoy. The head is stuck on a long Weber handle that I like. Yeah, it's a bit strange shaving with it so far and I am thinking it's not easy finding the head's sweet spot for me that's best for cutting smoothly.

I made a point of not reading any reviews to avoid any sorta prejudice. It will be used a few more times and then we will see what's up. My opinion will probably be refined somewhat, but I am thinking 4 times should be enough.

Invoice (201) received and paid this morning. The waiting was worth it as I got a cheque for £150 from a raffle win which more than covered the purchase. Fingers crossed for a pre-Christmas arrival. Happy Days.
