    emailed twice and no answer.

    JR Reyes I scream for....chicken wings??

    Have you received an order confirmation? Or a shipping notice? I don't know which service he uses, but I know USPS is delayed a bit because of the recent holidays.

    It does sound a bit odd that your email got no response.

    I hope it all works out for you soon.

    I have heard from time to time that emails go unanswered from Shaveabuck.

    I would give it at least another two or three days.

    As JR asked, Have you received an order confirmation? Or a shipping notice?

    How did you pay? Credit Card, PayPal using a Credit Card?

    i got email confirmation soon after I paid via PayPal, but nothing since, just getting a little worried cause I dont have tracking # and no one is answering me from the company.

    He is a reputable vendor, sometimes in life things happen. He may be sick, a loved one could be sick. I know it can be frustrating not knowing what's going on. Give him a little longer, I'm sure you'll hear from Shave-A-Buck.

    I placed an order on the same day and also haven't gotten it. But don't worry. Shaveabuck is a reputable company. Like most of these shave retailers, they're small, like a one or two person operation. If there's a life issue, things with the business suffer like @RaZorBurn123 said. Also, you don't always get a tracking #. Irritating? YES. Anything to worry about? Nope. You'll get your order, I'll get my order. Things will get taken care of.

    I've done business with Joe(shave-a-buck) many times and he has always come through. That said I've found the email on his web site isn't always the best or most dependable. Have you tried mailing him using your email instead of his web site email? I once had problems getting responses from him only to discover that for what ever reason his site email wasn't working correctly and delivering the mail I was sending him, but when I emailed him using my email everything went smoothly. :)

    I order a cadet a few months ago and it took a week to get it but that is not too bad. He uses first class mail. I would like to add that the cadet is my best shaver and I have a few. ( it is the OC) I would buy there again

    I used Shave A Buck recently. I was nonplussed by their customer service. I got my order, but that was it. Communication was nonexistent. You'll get your stuff, but it'll be a surprise.

    I made one order of blades, soap, AS, and Cadets from shaveabuck...it all arrived like 7 business days later via USPS. Thanksgiving likely cost a couple shipping days in this scenario. Hang in there, I am sure it's probably on the way.

    Besides the aforementioned vendor shortcomings, USPS is already delayed a few days. I have sent several items Priority 2 day and three business days later, the packages have just left town.

    I'm sure he'll send them on the day of his wedding.

    I sent Joe at Shave-A-Buck a cordial email explaining the concern folks are expressing about their orders recently placed. I asked him to make contact to let folks know their orders are received and being processed; to provide feedback. I mentioned his communication on order status would be greatly appreciated.

    Hope this helps and folks receive all orders soon, or the status. My desire is that Joe will get back to us.
