Should have known when arrived in a plastic sleeve instead of a cloth one they said it would in the ad. Hope yours is correct.

Yep, hope yours is correct but they were quick to respond and try to sort out with another.
Yep we’re all in the Same Boat just on a Different Oar.
Hope it all turns out Ok.

They won't be making money substituting Merkur parts for Pearl, an honest error I'm sure. I got my authentic Pearl from Don

Mine arrived in a plastic bag. Maybe to save some weight for shipping?
Good to know you'll get a replacement soon.
Thanks, just wish I looked closer. Could have had it straightened out while waiting for the Yaqi head.............

I can do that with the Yaqi Pearl, ATT H, RR37 and Karve D. I enjoy the three pass shave so I rarely do, but it's possible. I've never tried with the Fatip or my Wunderbar for that matter. Heck I shaved off a full beard with my RR37 last October in Cancun.
Well, they already thought of that...
That looks like "Rose Gold", but a step in the right direction.
I knew I couldnt be the only one that can shave like that! lol
Thats my favorite shave with my Grande.
I have two similar handles I bought from Techichi on the ‘bay that both work for the Yaqi-Pearl:
The one on the left is stainless steel, the one on the right is chrome plated brass.
Thanks, I'll look into it when I get the correct pearl base plateI have two similar handles I bought from Techichi on the ‘bay that both work for the Yaqi-Pearl:

The one on the left looks suspiciously like a Maggard's MR-5, which is also Stainless Steel.I have two similar handles I bought from Techichi on the ‘bay that both work for the Yaqi-Pearl:

I've had several dialogues with Don, from his earlier website to now his eBay store. The guy is an excellent, fast, responsive communicator! And he ships just as quickly as he communicates.Was impressed how quick he got back. Stand up person even though time has elapsed waiting on my Yaqi Head
Man this thread got me curious and went ahead and ordered a Pearl baseplate from Techichi this morning and a Yaqi head from Aliexpress, looking at the pictures of the Pearl baseplate looks like there is scratch going horizontally.
I hope it's just a reflection from the camera flash, can anyone confirm this?
I got it for $6 plus including shipping and looks like it's already on its way to me, now I have to wait several days for the Yaqi head, which was $8.30 with shipping included by e-packet.
I was thinking maybe I should have gotten it from Italian Barber along with the Barber pole handle.
I don't even know why I bought this setup since everyone is raving about it and it looks cool.
So will this be an aggressive and efficient setup paired with a Pearl baseplate?
How does it compare when using the original Pearl razor with its original top cap? Also has anyone else tried it with a different baseplate like the Parker 24c open comb?

I think this handle below, from IB, works well aesthetically. But then it's 15 bucks, plus 7 bucks shipping. Of course it ships quick, though. I get IB stuff in only a few days.
