Got my edwin jagger de89l very disapointed (see why)

[gomlz]

i ordered this on amazon i got my parker 22r from them seemed legit but look what they sent me a mini edwin jagger de89 its smaller and weighs less then my parker 22r just for the hassle they are not getting the 5 blades back that they sent me. So now im going to order from a reliable source geo from shavenation all that waiting and i got a dworf razor lol atleast im getting my money back though

Bummers! Maybe order a straight next time .

Not sure why you are calling it a "mini" looks to be the right length for the EJ 89's. Yes it is shorter than a lot of the clunky Parkers, but it is more balanced.

I don't see what is wrong with the DE89L?

 

[Smooth_Shaver]

There is nothing wrong with the razor....

 

[rebos]

+1 for not comprehending this . . .

 

[retrolike]

Send the DE89 my way...I'll dispose of it properly...

 

[drocu]

I guess I understand why you're disappointed because you were looking for a razor with a long handle. There are many other options out there but none of the EJ DE89 models have a long handle. Perhaps consider a vintage Knack?

 

[Sledgehammer39]

Seems fine to me!

 

[kingfisher]

Um....the Shave Nation DE89L will look exactly the same. They don't have a long handle.

 

[BladeDE40]

I'm wondering if the OP thinks the "L" in DE89L stands for long v. lined? If this is the case be prepared to get the exact same razor again.

You might want to have a look at the Muhle R89 Grande. It's the same head as your new EJ89, but the handle is longer (105mm vs 85mm)

 

[shaverjoe]

Your razor looks fine. Most websites will list the dimensions of the razor, both of the handle alone and razor assembled for this reason. The EJ89 should be somewhere around 3.7 inches in length. How does yours measure out?

By the way, the EJ89 is a fantastic razor.

 

[AABCDS]

What will your reason be for returning the razor? There's nothing wrong with it.

 

[mikey]

Me too.

Thanks,

Doesn't look like there is anything wrong with it to me.

[gomlz]

Honest mistake. I'd try both versions and see which one you like. Whatever you don't like, just sell on the BST. EJ DE89's are popular around here, for good reason.

Have you engaged the telescoping function? Lots of people miss that one.
