Karve Not Currently Accepting US Orders

[LRod]

After 2.5 months of zero email response, I had to go through my credit card company to get charges reversed.

Maybe I would have eventually gotten it.

02/22 is my supposed date when mines ready.
I paid it weeks ago which means I'll just wait regardless.

I tell my wife, "When I say I will do something, I am going to do it. There is no need to remind me every six months!"

Great news!
Just got my tracking email from Karve for my Brass Overlander. It's on its way via DHL Express!
Karve did very good, 2 weeks ahead of the quoted lead time of 8 weeks.
Very happy!!

I guess DHL Express really means Express!
I just got a notification that it'll be here tomorrow! Canada to Florida in 1 day!

DHL just dropped of my Brass Karve Overlander!
My wife grabbed it since I won't be home till late tonight. Can't wait to try it out!

Wonder what DHL Delivery will cost to USA?

Wow, no bueno.

It cost me $19 USD for the DHL Express shipping!
I don't know if that's the full cost (I doubt it) but I found it to be a very fair upgrade charge that got the razor to my door in 1 day.

Shipping from/to Canada is expensive.
Now add import tax.....NIET
And the wait.....

RazorEmporium sometimes has this stuff....no wait and disc applies, and no tax......

-Shipping was dirt cheap for next day shipping!
-The import tax thing is currently on a pause (I didn't have to pay anything extra!)
-The quoted lead time was 8 weeks (which I was aware of) and it arrived in 6!
-Razor Emporium (and also WCS) had them but Karve apparently isn't selling to retailers
anymore so don't expect any Karve stuff that doesn't come directly from Karve.
-I'm happy, Adios!

Here it is folks, it's a beauty!

I had exactly the same experience, but waited three months before requesting credit for a SS Overlander. It’s a shame because the razors truly are outstanding …. and congrats to those who are having a better experience now.

Chris has apparently improved the time for getting razors built and delivered. He's got a message on his website explaining this. My Overlander is proof that he's doing better!
As for email response times, I'm not sure about that part since I've never had to email him.
I ordered, paid and simply waited for it to arrive.

This is the key to a successful Karve purchase, in my experience.

Just as a side note, when the EU imposed tariffs on Chinese goods, the likes of Ali-Express orders, the prices on their website just went up to cover the extra cost. As a purchaser there was nothing for you to worry about other than the increased price.

 

[preidy]

lol are you suggesting that karve also seeded the clouds to cause a major storm to clear up his bac

Matter of fact yes. But cheers anyway...

People wanting a Karve at this point might be better off posting a WTB in the BST.

Karve no delivery issue update:
I received an email notification that my beautiful Overlander has been shipped.
My order was placed 12/30/24.
Hopefully there are no US customs or tariff issues.

I tried seeing if it would let me check out still and wrote in a note I'm responsible for any additional costs and fees. It won't let you check out at all with a US address unfortunately.
