To those who sell this stuff, please let us know when you take part in this discussion. Momabear, I know you are a manufacture so this would not hurt you or those like you on the shaving forums. In fact it should help. How many newbies come to us saying they are having a hard time getting or affording good shaving supplies?
I recently purchased my first batch of hi-end shaving creams from Amazon and remembered some of the price lists that I received from the manufactures when I asked for samples. The prices I was offered on the wholesale price lists were less than ½ of what we are buying the stuff for!! I found shaving creams that retail for $18 selling for $8 on the wholesale price list!
Alone we have the buying power to approach the big boys as a distributor, and if we teamed up with our sister site I am sure that their sales would increase. The only reason I bought the cream is because I had gift cards from work. How many of our members would love to try more of the good stuff if they could afford it? We could tack a small percentage onto the sales to maintain the order web sight, say 1%, and all products would be drop shipped from the manufacturer. All we need is a gallery with prices and an order page. Amazon dos it. Why not us? Just think of this is an ongoing mass buy.
