Paradigm 17-4 SS Razor

I was buying it, then sold out at checkout. Very disappointed. Or someone bought it twice, or I really don't know how's possible a limited batch after the well-known demand.
An explanation from Andrew?

It has nothing to do with Andrew as Phil chooses the amount to order and that's what Andy provides. I'm sure he'd love to sell Phil a couple hundred at a time. As far as the checkout process you'd have to talk to Phil about that but a lot of vendors sites are set up where an item can go into your cart if it's available initially but if someone else checks out before you with the last one then it goes to sold out before you can complete your transaction. With this hard to get stuff you haven't purchased it until you've checked out.

I had the same experience, had the razor in my cart, contemplated adding another item for a few seconds, went to check out and it was gone. It really irks me when vendors don’t secure your item in your cart while you look to purchase more items from them.
Well I won’t play the chasing unicorns game.

'New batch' available. Just bought it...

I signed up for an email notification when more Titanium Paradigm were available and never received one, oh well. After seeing pictures I think I actually prefer the old finish to the new one in that the design on the Handle really stood out. I’m sure V2 will be beautiful though, my 17-4 is definitely finished very nicely. I’m looking forward to when Paradigm is able to sell directly.

I hear you. The order was placed before the 17-4 did well, so it was a tiny order. There should be less and less problem with short supply as time goes by. A chicken in every pot, and a Paradigm in every shave den. :-)

These were available on the website for about 30 minutes, maybe a little longer so they didn't sell out immediately. Apparently not everyone purchased as soon as they received the email notification.

Paradigm Shaveware How will you address the smallish supply issue for releases ? More handle options in the future?

Nice job bringing a polish titanium DE razor to market, I think many have been wanting just that.

I signed up for the SS email notification but didn't receive one. Perhaps this is limited to X number for sale to X number of next in line?

I did receive my email notice for the Titanium razor - I am not on the SS email list. Bullgoose did not list the razor for sale on any website - just emails. I obviously need to learn how to use alerts.

I do not understand the ordering process or manufacturing process including material lead-times. Hopefully, the next batch will be both soon and larger.
