I had almost forgotten about this thread. I got in the database on 2/18. I haven't heard anything since.
Hey Cheskin bro, can you do us a favor try to send Rocnel a messages and ask them how are things progressing with the production. I'm guessing since you are in contact with them its easier for you to reach them and I assume your Turkish too. If its not too much of a trouble for you, we would appreciate that,thanks
A unsubstantiated rumor from an inside source that shall remain unnamed; The first couple thousand Rocnels are in the hands of local (Turkey) customers. Shipments to North America are immanent.
Rocnel corp. has finished the manufacturing process. They have enough SE razors for American and Turkish orders right now. They are going to start the second shipment of local orders after a week of observation as a procedure of quality control. I'm waiting for my order being shipped from Istanbul. When I receive mine, I'll share the pictures with you asap.
Worst possible 'teaser' photo of what arrived on my California-sun-kissed desk this afternoon as the logo is clearly visible
So Darkbulb you already was billed, paid for it and today you received it? if that is the case then this a weak teaser no doubt lol
Yeah and shipping was $2 less than Murat thought it would be so he tried to credit it back to me but I declined the credit (I think the shipping cost ended up being $8 so I think ended up paying $35 for the razor but it could had been $33 w/ the lower shipping cost). Murat was looking for some people 'willing' to receive their UK and US razors a bit earlier and I was happy to see that I was asked and gladly accepted the offer. I know 3-4 other people in the UK and US that also should be receiving theirs just about now I'll post a review of some kind tonight. First impression: Wow!
popcorn ready for your review EDIT: I have a request though, can you also write review on the red blob stamped by Rocnel, its ok, its ok, don't be alarmed, you just need to chew on it and give us neck to neck detail comparison vs todays popular bubble gums.
What I'll do is create a new Rocnel review thread, and link to it here, where people can add their reviews as the razors arrive. Kinda like we did for DeFitch, etc.
Just got some new photos from Murat about a NEW product that will be available to purchase as well that...goes very well with the SE Rocnel razor.... Will update here tonight.
I'm curious to see how long it will take before we see these on the BST threads...or even worse...the bay.
Well there was this one person who sold a few some weeks ago. I wouldn't hold your breath to see mine there though. I'm really liking what I'm seeing....the real verdict will be in the morning when putting it to my scruffy face.
