Rockwell Model T

    RyX DoH!

    I own a few 2nd or more hand razors myself. If those early folks got one, and parts to fix it, then a whole 'nother razor there may be some V1.0 or 1.1 (repairs in place) hitting the BST's. Those R41's had a similar history and many shavers are actively seeking the early ones for the increased efficiency.

    Substantial feel to it. Very smooth TTO action to be honest. Looking forward to giving this razor a go for a few shaves in the coming weeks. A full review to follow.......

    Below is the reply I got from Rockwell Razors. I did get my Razors but not the Razor stands that I ordered.I would take a picture but I can't find my digital camera. I can find mt 35mm film camera but not my digital.

    Hi Patrick,

    We're sorry about the missing stands. We'll queue up a new shipment for them. Or if you'd rather get a refund for them, we can also do that. Please let us know.


    Sincerely,
    Onassis

    See below the BS I got from Rockwell today:
    Hi Patrick,

    I think I figured out why you were not sent the stands. You ordered the Brushed Chrome finish but that finish did not actually materialize in the final production. The stand finishes that have made production are White Chrome, Gunmetal and Stainless Steel - although the White Chrome finish is currently out of stock.

    We can send you either the Gunmetal or Stainless Steel stand. Or, we can also send you a refund via PayPal if you'd rather have that.


    Sincerely,
    Onassis
    The Rockwell Razors Team

    That sucks. Are you going for the refund or just going to opt for one of the other finishes?

    @PatrickA51 and @Str8on2, I am glad you guys received your Model T's. Patrick, that's a shame about your stands, but at least, they are giving you choices. I am on the preorder list which means all the Kickstarter and Indiegogo backers receive theirs before I get mine. God only knows when I will get mine. Lol!

    Here is what I sent to them this morning and their response, at the bottom:
    ---- On Mon, 1 Apr 2019 21:36:00 -0400 "patricka51" wrote ----
    I want my product that I paid for. You people are the worst people in the world to back on Kickstart. As far as I am concerned I want all of my money back the initial $175. For the 2 Rockwell T Razors that I paid for the backing and the $89.95 that I paid for the 3 add-on items.for the inconvenience of having to wait almost 3 and 1/2 years! And I keep your Razors, but that will never happen. You people are scam artists as far as I am concerned. Send me the Stainless Steel Stands.


    Hi Patrick,

    Please excuse Onassis (new team member) as it appears he found and referenced a piece of very dated information, but it was not accurate.

    We will be sending you the Brushed Chrome stands next week as soon as this item is received at our fulfillment center. As mentioned in the Kickstarter comments (I believe it was you who I was responding to), this was a brand new product that was delayed on its way to us, and we're just preparing to pack and ship them next week. Again, sorry for splitting your shipment in two like this, but we did want to get the rest of your pledge shipped for you ASAP so as to not cause further delays.

    Hope that works for you! Please let me know if there's anything else that we can do to help in the meantime. The Brushed Chrome stands will be on their way next week.

    Thank you for your understanding, Patrick.

    All the best,

    Grigori

    I still think that they are like a "Christmas Goose!"

    I don't blame you one bit there brother. That is a complete and utter FUBAR if I've ever seen one. Good for sticking to your guns and letting them know your extreme disappointment. I'd of given them both barrels too....

    Good luck my friend.... :happy088:

    Ugh.... Don't know what to tell you. Maybe a prayer? 5 Our Fathers & 3 Hail Marys to perhaps appease the Devine powers that be?
    You sir might have a long wait ahead there....:(

    Hang in there..... :confused:

    Unless you happen to be Jewish, then that would translate to 5 Oy Veys and 3 meshugina's.

    Below is my reply to an e-mail I got from Rockwell Team

    I will believe it when I have them in my hands, You had better think of something to give to the backers that didn’t receive their complete orders because you don’t want disgruntled backers getting on forums like The Shave Den or Straight Razor Palace Forum or Badger & Blade Forum or The Shave Nook ! Word of mouth will ruin you and your dreams.

    Here is the e-mail I got this morning, again I will believe it when I have the items I paid for in my hands.

    Hi Patrick,

    Just wanted to update you on this - we're receiving the Brushed Chrome stands at our fulfillment center this upcoming Thursday and should have your Brushed Chrome stands shipped shortly after.

    Thanks again! Please let us know if there's anything else we can do to help.
