Overall my interaction was very good, from placing the order online to picking up the product at the warehouse. My was short and I was credited the difference immediately. An order was place with the supplier for the back ordered part, unfortunately I still have received status on delivery. Perhaps I can get further assistance with that. I’m still interested in getting the product.
Blades arrived on time and as described. Would purchase again from The Barber Supplier. Was searching for blades with no glue/wax dots, these Dorco blades are exactly that, and an excellent price too. The glue/wax dots do not affect their performance, wax/glue free is just a personal preference and I would buy these blades again.
I love the vibrancy of these colors and they hardly fade at all. Will keep buying.
