Hi BJ, do you have a real name or is BJ it?
I have ordered about 90% of my gear online and have never had a problem. The Gentleman's Shop is one of the best in the UK that deliver to the US but unless you tell us where you are it's difficult to help.

I got a badger brush for $9 shipped here:

It's a tweezerman. I have over 30 razors so far, but am still using this brush, it's my only one. heh. I'm fine with it. Eventually I'll get some ~$40 deal.
You can get the same tweezerman brush at Target for $15+tax. But why? just get it for $9.00 if you don't mind this egoless brush.

Thanks for the tip. I didn't think a quality badger brush could be had for <$40.
As far as ego I believe that has to be supplied by the user.
The only online retailer I've ordered from thus far is ClassicShaving.com. My experience with them was nothing short of fantastic. They went above and beyond in customer service (adding products after the order was placed, and even changing the shipping method so that I would receive it next day, ON A SATURDAY). This even meant shipping via a method they didn't ordinarly use (USPS Express Mail). They've even promised to send me a bunch of samples the next time I order with them.
You may also check the "marketplace" here on B&B. I've bought far more stuff from there then I have anywhere else and had nothing but pleasent experiences.

All the on-line shaving retailers I've used have been great: Classic Shaving, Em's Place, QED, Saint Charles Shave, Mama Bears, Honeybee Sue's, Lee's Razors, The Gentlemen's Shop, The English Shaving Company...
Yeah, good point, considering the size/nature of these shops, you'd probably be hard pressed to find one that didn't offer excellent customer service, etc.

BTW... That must be great in the bars...
To cover most of your shaving gear needs, www.qedusa.com and www.classicshaving.com should do it.
I have ordered from many online retailers in the past 6 years and have not had a problem as of yet. In fact, if the merchandise wasn't exactly what I wanted or liked and they had a physical presence, i was allowed to exchange it with no problems.
BTW, welcome to B&B,you will be assimilated!
Icecow,

QED is great - crap website.
The Saville Row brushes are very good for the price and his shave sticks can't be beat for their scent.

When you go to QED's Web site, go to the bottom part of the menu and click on "Other fabulous toiletry products..." Then, when you see something you want, email him or call him.

straight razors, go check out www.straightrazorplace.com, and look for Joe Chandler's site...I forgot the URL for his shop once again (the pains of not bookmarking thinkgs)
