Nationwide Campus Group Buy Thread (Shick Injectors/Blades)

[joel]

Ok fellas..... sound off - how many of each type of razor do you desire - and how many boxes of blades?

The #'s we can generate will then leave us with prices - and your reply to this thread with a desired amount is NON binding. Ideally i'd like to get free shipping on the razors/blades and the blades from $5 per box of 7 down to $3 per box of 7.

If we can buy them at $3 per box of 7, I am personally in for 50 boxes.

[AACJ]

Sign me up for 1 fixed head and 2 to 3 boxes of blades.

Good going Joel.

88 fixed, 11 adjustables, and 279 boxes of blades. Jay is working on some pricing #'s and such, and the razors won't be in for another week and a half or so, so we've got plenty of time. Hopefully we'll hear back from him later this afternoon. :smile:

Indeed. Good work Joel.

Well... don't pat me on the back till we hear back on a price :wink: :wink:

[roughrider]

The fixed head is the clear winner.

[guenron]

The fixed head is the clear winner.
I think Joel's excellent picture of the stampings scared off numerous potential purchasers. Just think, they'll never know what it is like to use the adjustable now. For the price of approximately 20 blades, they are missing out on an adventure in shaving. Too bad..:sad:

Ron,
As one who uses both the adjustable and fixed injectors I find that the optimal setting for the adjustable is the same as my fixed injector. Recently I tried the various settings on the adjustable and again returned it back to a setting that mimics the fixed razor.

Rather than trying to place a negative spin on this, think of all the members that can look forward to the adventure of using an injector. And, if they so choose, there's nothing preventing them from picking up the adjustable version when it hits the market.

There's no negative spin at all.. It is very simple, there is less and less sense of adventure in these things. If one size fit all, then there will only be one size. If one individual's experience was the universal experience, then we would all use the same blades, same razor, same cream, no one would use soap.
So rather than spinning at all, think about it. Many will not spring for an inexpensive razor made with inexpensive stampings. Yet, it promises to provide the same quality of injector shave that the original adjustables did. They were and still are rather popular for the ability to control blade exposure/angle. So there is no spin, merely an opinion other than that put out by one individual and I still think it is too bad that lads will miss out on the opportunity.

[geoff]

Sign me up!!

2 - Fixed head
1 - box blades

Needs to be shipped to Canada.
(Have we established if Canadian shipping is problamatic?)

Just improving my shaving routine and happy I saw this thread before I ebay'd!

[Scotto]

Somehow I missed this thread while I was travelling. Assuming we actually get a discount, I would be in for 1 fixed, 1 adjustable, and 3 boxes of blades

[cjbe1975]

Hi,

I'm new to the site but I would like 2 fixed razors and 5 boxes of blades. Thanks!

[JohnP]

Can't believe more folks didn't want an adjustable just for curiosity sake...I'm on the list for 2 of each....(along with blades) because I know I'll inevitably break at least one...
John P.

[NYLaw]

Count me in for 1 FIXED, 1 ADJUSTABLE, & 10 BOXES OF BLADES, depending on price, of course!

Again, Joel, thanks for your work & time!

So there is no spin, merely an opinion other than that put out by one individual and I still think it is too bad that lads will miss out on the opportunity.I have to agree with Ron. The real beauty of an adjustable is that you can customize the exposure, even if you never change it after you find what you like. To some guys it can make the difference between liking an injector and and succeeding with it or not. I that sense the loss of flexibility can totally change the experience. Not everyone will like or succeed with the fixed setting.

Right you are. I had mine ordered several weeks before the Breaking News and so will forego the bargain prices. I hope the bulk buy will make a difference, even "FREE" shipping would be a great deal.

[NYLaw]

I just cancelled my order with Nationwide... They said they're not necessarily shipping in any order of order-placement. So I really hope this group-buy comes through.

While we're on the topic of Injectors- Do you PREFER the Injector to a DE (any razor with any blade) or is it just a matter of variety & adventure?

Really variety more than anything else. I have this:


http://badgerandblade.com/gallery/displayimage.php?imageid=1320

and enjoy using it occasionally. I never tried the "O" (Japanese Domestic Market Only) type and remember enjoying the "M" type (adjustable). I think, if I can recall 25 or so years ago, I broke my adjustable using the twin blade injectors in it. I shifted to the Best A Man Could Get back then, Trac II or some such device. :001_rolle

[RWelch76]

I hope I'm not too late to score this deal, but I have just returned from a week in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States. Nice, indeed, as I got a truly glorious shave from Elliot at the Art of Shaving.

I would love to be counted in for 1 fixed and 1 adjustable. I appreciate it! :lol:

[RWelch76]

Hey Red Bob,

Ron, thanks for looking out for me on that one :001_rolle A kindly gesture, indeed!

But, ahhhhh...........I have just purchased some of the infamous Dog's Bollocks injector blades as a group purchase over on SMF (through the kindly chap, Kalypso). The Dog's Bollocks blades are the Teflon-coated ones, of which I've used the GEM blades, but never the injectors. If the injectors are anything like the GEM blades with Teflon coating, then all will be well, as they don't call them Dog's Bollocks for nothing! :lol:

Later!

[ouch]

I'm not too big on British banter, but I would have guessed that dog's bollocks wasn't a good thing.:tongue_sm

[joel]

A one time discount offer has been worked out for badger and blade based on the size of the order. Prices will NOT be posted publically, and I kindly ask no one post them publically. The discount is quite considerable considering the actual paid amount (cost) of the products to the distributor, so it is well worthwhile to place your order in the group buy.

Also - the (non-discounted) prices were changed on the razors by the manufacturer - $13.99 for the fixed, and $14.99 for the adjustable.

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR INTEREST IS EXPRESSED ON THIS THREAD. PM'S TO ME WILL NOT WORK, AS I AM GOING TO RECRUIT SOMEONE TO CONTACT EVERYONE WHO REPLIED TO THIS THREAD AND PROVIDE THEM WITH ORDERING INSTRUCTIONS.

THE STEPS WILL BE AS FOLLOWS.
1.) YOU WILL EXPRESS YOUR INTEREST ON THIS THREAD -
2.) YOU WILL BE CONTACTED VIA PM BY A MEMBER HERE WHO I WILL PUT IN CHARGE OF THE CONTACT/OFFER (I WILL POST WHO IT IS ONCE I GET SOMEONE)
3.) YOU WILL BE GIVEN AN EMAIL ADDRESS TO THE EMPLOYEE HANDLING THE GROUP BUY FROM THE SUPPLIER.
4.) YOU WILL SEND YOUR MAILING ADDRESS VIA EMAIL TO THE AFORMENTIONED EMPLOYEE'S EMAIL ADDRESS, AT WHICH POINT YOU WILL PROMPTLY BE SENT A CUSTOM ORDER FORM VIA POSTAL MAIL.
5.) YOU FILL OUT THE ORDER FORM AND PLACE YOUR ORDER.

The ordering process is setup in this manner in order to minimize the workload for the kind folks at the distributor.

[boboakalfb]

Hey thanks for all of your work on this Joel...

[BigDawgBarkin]

I'm definitely interested in getting in on the group buy for some blades. As of right now it's kind of dependent on whether I win a bid I've placed for a classic injector. I'll know by tomorrow.

[ameetmedi]

Please count me in for 1 Fixed and 3 Boxes of blades

thanks
ameet

[CigarBoB]

I need to update my order from
1 fixed blade razor
6 boxes of blades

to

I hope I am able to do this.

Thank you.

[madmedic]

Still interested as indicated above...but what about overseas (in my case UK) orders?

Regards

:a17: Beers to KC_Dave for stepping up and being the contact!

KC_Dave will send you a pm if you have expressed interest on this thread with the instructions on how to take advantage of the deal! The razors should be in stock early/mid next week, and orders should begin shipping immediatly.

How does the deal affect Canadians?

I can't see it being honoured when shipping to Canada.

[murchmb]

Dave, PM sent.

As we are not to disclose the details I have PM'd you.

If anyone else wants to know about the Canadian shipping PM me.

[Ironman]

Time for me to stop lurking and post!

I'd like to order one fixed, one adjustable and two packs of schick blades.

I've been shaving with an injector razor for about five months, and it's just fantastic. I can't wait to try both of these new razors out to see how they perform against my current schick injector.

Thanks,
Fred

[acoldspoon]

I'm interested!

[Jonnybc]

I'm not too big on British banter, but I would have guessed that dog's bollocks wasn't a good thing.:tongue_sm

A conversation between Samuel L. Jackson (Elmo) and Robert Carlisle (Felix) from the film 51st State:

Felix: Oh, bollocks!
Elmo: Dog's bollocks?
Felix: No, just plain f***ing bollocks!
Elmo: No dog involved?
Elmo: So, let me get this straight. "Bollocks" is bad, whereas "the dogs bollocks" is good, huh?
Felix: Yeah.
[Felix sees Kane's car]
Felix: Oh, Bollocks!

I haven't got mine either. :frown:

Could it be because I'm in NJ? It never counted for anything before.

Hope all you guys receive it tomorrow.

Mine came in the mail today.

[fisherc]

Please add me on for one each of the adjustable and fixed model.

Thanks,

[mantic]

Got mine today too. Didja notice the "Misc" line at the bottom? I'm assuming that means I can tack on additional merchandise onto the order...I'm gonna get the $6.99 "Off-Brand Metal Double Edge Razor" as well. :001_rolle

--Mark

[HlSheppard]

Got mine today. Sadly, I'll have to mail it out on Monday... :c17:

I am interested in 3 razors and 4 packages of Schick brand blades, if possible. The type of razors I want are currently undetermined. Thanks.

Upgrading the RAM on my laptop can wait...I feel another case of RAD kickin' in!

[Creslin]

Oops, I posted in the wrong forum I think. I would be interested in one fixed head and a box or two of blades. Just let me know the particulars.

[TraderJoe]

I got my Order form (it was in the mail yesterday). I was out all day kayaking on Lake Michigan and forgot to check when I got back. So, the form will be mailed out Monday.:frown:

The fixed razor is surprisingly popular. What gives? It's only 1 dollar more for the power to adjust!

Well crap, now I'm going to have to go back and ask all the people I'm getting one for which one they want again. Thanks for the heads up. Anyway. Brand new injectors, I'm excited :)

Im with you on this one I send them an email some time ago no responds but the snailmail would have to come to the Netherlands and I do not know if it includes free shipping. you'd have a better chance ordering yours with some B&B member who is ordering and then having him send it to your house and you pay shipping fees.

Mine came yesterday. As an aside, I was in Wally World & on their discontinued shelves they have 7-packs of Schick injector blades for $3.00 each....or did ;-)

[vontech]

Sent off my order form with a check yesterday. Now we'll see how long it takes...

Will post when it arrives.

Same here;
I also ordered some extras for a few of our Canadian and European brethren.

Not sure if this is still in motion, but I'm interested in a fixed (I love my old 1940's injector, but while it shaves well it definitely leaves me feeling "burned"). Let me know what I need to do (PM or such).

[Scotto]

Still no word for me.... I guess no one loves me. :frown:

[mantic]

Sent my order today. I added one of their DE's to see what they're like.

Am I the only person who has never gotten a response to their e-mails to this company?

I had no response at all, I assumed it's because I'm not in the US.

[Suzuki]

I'm not feeling any love either - didn't think it could have anything to do with nationality though...

[Ironman]

I received my form yesterday and sent it off this morning. We'll see how it goes!

In Hudson Valley? YES!
Why not call NationWideCampus? Then again, after the blogger's write up, do you wish to run the risk? Sounds like a solicitation that wouldn't.

[ouch]

Am I alone in thinking "where's my razor already?"

Anyone receive one yet?

Waiting patiently. I figured you'd be the first to get yours, seeing as you're in Jersey (and you were of the first to get the order form).

[HlSheppard]

I sent a check with my order form. I wasn't really comfy just writing down and sending my C.C. information.

When I checked their website, I saw a couple of things that screamed "you're not getting anything FAST:"

1) they must wait for all checks to clear (which I understand)
2) Shipping takes approx. 10 days, and
3) NO RETURN / GUARANTEE policy :mad3:

I actually got two of the fixed blade models. I'm hoping that at least one of them is a keeper (assuming that the quality issues are more than just one razor that keeps getting passed around).

[SSLStudio]

Im ordering nothing till I have the thumbs up from atleast 10 B&B members here.

As if I can order, the snailmail will probably never arrive and ohwell I can always order thru the website directly no big deal.

Im sure OUCH will be the first one to get his so im watching him like a HAWK

[Mink Scorpio]

Is it still possible to get in on this? If so, I'd like 2 fixed and 6 boxes of blades

[Scotto]

Still no response from my second e-mail. If they don't want my business, so be it.... :mad:

Same to me, no response and now I think I'll jump off...:frown: :frown:

Hang tight, buddy - You want exactly what I ordered. If I get mine and I'm not happy, I'll give you first shot at mine (that is, if you're still interested).

[roughrider]

I never got a response to my e-mail. The form just showed up in the mail.

[ouch]

Exactly what happened to me.


Now all I want is for my razor to just show up in the mail.:tongue_sm

[AACJ]

If everyone who got the order form noticed, it says they are specifically Schick Injectors. If these are NOT Schick Injectors, then that is false advertising and possible mail fraud, although I don't think they were intending to defraud anyone.

[HlSheppard]

Guys -

Not sure if you all saw that this seller http://stores.ebay.com/Red-Dragon-ImEx_Shaving_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZ1QQfsubZ731120QQftidZ2 QQtZkm
was already selling the NatCamp razors via e-Bay.

I e-mailed him regarding this quality "issue." I told him that I had 2 on the way and that I was curious as to what his take was (if he had used it).

He said that he read the S****blog review and thought it was a bit disingenuous to review a "broken razor." He stated that he had one (the fixed blade) that he uses and is keeping. He is also (obviously) selling them.

He stated that his does not have a bent safety bar, etc. Here's an excerpt from his message back to me:

"I've tried the fixed (type O) you need to hold it a little flatter and it works fine. Quality looks good. I haven't tried the adjustable, (it is, after all, adjustable. If you don't like the shave, adjust it)"

[boboakalfb]

Just got an email from Nationwide Campus that they processed my order...so I am guessing I should have it in a week or so?

[madmedic]

Did anyone from the UK....ever receive any communication?

I would like to get in on this if it's not to late.

I didn't but not too bothered really.

[rtaylor61]

Mine arrived today. I'll be using them over the weekend!

Nope! I've given up on it, I'll keep my eye out for an original on Ebay.

[ouch]

My package arrived today, so hopefully you should all receive them soon.

[Mink Scorpio]

Hello Mink,
It does not appear to work for addresses outside the US.

[Mink Scorpio]

that explains it Thanks Ron .

[denys]

1 adjustable razor, 1 box of blades, thanks.

[NYLaw]

It's interesting that I received an email over a week ago that my order was processed, but I haven't received the order yet... I guess I'll just wait and see.

[TraderJoe]

Its also interesting that I sent them the form back immediately with payment, and haven't gotten a "we're processing your order" message.

Yup, I'm in the same boat. Maybe next week... :001_rolle

My items arrived today. Just received an incredible shave with the fixed head injector.

[jfm]

Woo-hoo! I was getting jealous since all the other guys had one, but it finally came today! Within 15 minutes I had a much un-needed second shave of the day!

No QC issues to speak of. Just a wonderful razor that, on first use, is making me think I may have a lifetime supply of DE blades.

[denys]

1 fixed, 1 adjustable head, 2 boxes of blades, thanks!

[AceHarddrive]

Have these been sent via UPS (etc) or by the Post Office?

~Tim :cool:

[moses]

Just to clarify - People keep trying to add themselves to this group buy; is that still possible? (I am not particularly interested, but it would be a shame for these people to post here expecting something to happen, and never get a result, when they could just go to the website and buy immediately for the regular price).

Please PM me if you still want in on this deal as I'm no longer monitoring the thread daily.

[vontech]

Got mine in the mail yesterday -- never got a confirming email, though.

Shaving with the fixed blade version this morning!

Tom

[AceHarddrive]

Got mine today! One Fixed and one adjustable. Both arrived in cellophane wrapping with no packing peanuts (etc). However, both look to be well-made and sturdy. Looking forward to a great shave tonight!

~Tim :cool:

[inkling]

I got a fixed head yesterday and tried using it this morning. This thing won't load the blades! The key only goes in about a third of the way, then gets stuck. Am I doing something wrong?

I ended up manually inserting the blade which was rather tricky and it gave me a decent shave. Not bad, not great. I'll try again tomorrow.

Same, I could only get my blade in a 3rd of the way then had to do the rest by hand. =/

I shaved with the fixed head this morning but I never used an injector before but I did follow the other posts and kept the guard against my skin. I'm not sure if I was supposed to do that or another angle but the shave I got (with CVS blades, my other good ones are on order) was sketchy at best even using Nancy Boy. Had I not run out of time and needed to get to work I would have finished off with my HD. =/ Bummed me out to walk out of the house with a cruddy shave. I'll try it again tomorrow though, maybe I just need to get used to the razor.

[AceHarddrive]

Hmmm . . . Sounds like it's time to post a link to Ron's Pictorial on "Loading an Injector (http://badgerandblade.com/vb/showthread.php?t=1568)"
Last night I tried loading a blade into the non-adjustable NWC model and a Schick Model L that I bought from rols (thanks rols!) and had no trouble whatsoever. I only had to adjust the blade once fully loaded since the blades tend to load with one side a bit more exposed than the rest, and thus had to make sure the blade was equally-exposed on both ends.
Bytheway, I'm using the blades from TedPella (http://www.tedpella.com/dissect_html/dissect.htm#anchor1586278) (#121-4).
I'll let y'all know how the shave goes. I plan to shave one side of my face with the NWC razor, and the other side with the Schick Model L.

~Tim :wink2:

I actually referred to that thread yesterday, but I can only get to the third photo. The key goes in about a third of the way, then stops cold. If I force it, the key moves slightly further, but then requires the Jaws of Life to get it back out.

I'm not sure if it's a quality control issue or what, but I guess I got a bum razor. Maybe NWC should ship a pair of pliers with every order. Live and learn, I guess.

[denys]

Mine arrived today without any plastic wrapping and with blade already loaded - what would that mean, was it used before?

[geoff]

I spoke with them recently and they said that the new ones were being sent out with a blade loaded.

I would expect that is the case for you and the unit is most likely still new.

Yes, you are right: http://www.nationwidecampus.com/productinfo.asp?pid=1500&cid=

Still, amount of greasy fingerprints (of packing/selling person?) on the razor is somewhat embarassing...
