Razor Repair, who does it?

[brucered]

I'm looking at getting a repair on my Red Ring Eclipse and was wondering who, if any, vendor or hobbiest does such a service?

Also, what would I expect to pay this type of service/repair?

It appears to be a simple fix, but nothing I want to tackle myself. I was hoping to get it done professionaly and not duct taped or epoxied by myself.

Thanks,
Bruce

Their site quotes razor "repair" as $20 with a 1-2 week turn around time...don't know if this helps you out at all. DE razor repair has to be one of the more obscure skill sets...lol....

No. Just no. Maybe I misunderstood and Jim meant this as a joke post.

Read some of these threads, Jim.

Sorry...googled "razor repair" and that's what I got. Never had a razor that needed repair before so I apologize if I gave you a bum steer on who to use...was an honest mistake.

Hi Bruce,

Just returned from Holiday in Turkey (at 2:30am this morning so still a bit jaded) but your Eclipse repair looks to be pretty straightforward. I see you've PMed me so I'll give you the address details in reply, if you want to send. As for the cost, if you are happy to cover postage, I'll do the repair FOC.

Best Wishes

Dave

Avoid this place at all costs. My wife bought me a replate job on a British Aristocrat for my birthday a couple of months ago.
Going on 2 months later I still have no razor. I wish she had asked me about good vendors before making the purchase, but she wanted it to be a surprise.

It looks like their website has been blocked too - I can't access that page/link without my virus checker blocking it.
