I ordered my Rocnel SE Razor from extrashaving.com on May 4 and picked it up from the Post Office on May 16. To be fair, I have a P.O. Box, so it may have been at the Post Office on the 12th but I didn't check the mail on Saturday. I did not choose DHL Express shipping. I usually go this route for international shipments, because of the P.O. Box and packages normally arrive in decent time. I'm also not in a huge rush usually, since I already have WAY more shaving loot than I need.
I had entered on the waiting list at Rocnel directly, but have yet to receive any notification from them. The price from extrashaving.com was the same, so I just ordered it from that website in Turkey. By ordering from extrashaving.com, I did not have a choice for the handle style. I received the knurled stainless handle and that's great, but I didn't have a preference. I would have been happy with any. They now also offer Rocnel smooth or lined stainless handles, Rocnel stainless set screw , and the Rocnel stainless razor stand.
As an aside, I have yet to shave with the Rocnel SE Razor. I held out for one more shave with the Gillette Tuckaway. Maybe in the wee hours tomorrow morning I will take the Rocnel for a spin. We'll see! So many choices these days!
I was on the wait list as well and hadn't heard back. I emailed Murat directly and he sent me a PayPal invoice. Received the razor promptly a couple weeks ago but have yet to use it although it showed up well packed, directly to the house.
Seems solid and will likely break it out this week to try.
