What is your favourite online shaving supplier?

    I haven't found an online shaving supplier that fills all my needs. Most of the shops I visit do not have a great selection and most of the times the items I do need are out of stock. I'd love to find a HUGE online shaving supplier that has all items in stock and a huge inventory. I do most of my shopping at Connaught Shaving, but a lot of their supplies are out of stock. Their selection of shaving brushes is basic, they have no quality badger brushes. So whats your favourite online shaving supplier?

    I've over a dozen bookmarks, as you said it's hard to find a one stop shop.
    it'll depend on what I'm looking for:

    Soaps & Creams
    Connaught and Vintage Scent cover most of my needs, Connaught have a
    great range of soaps especially those like P160 that are hard to find.

    Razors
    Safetyrazors.co.uk stock both replated and original vintage razors.
    For new I'll buy from Connaught, Shaving Shack or shaving.ie
    Badger & Blade B/S/T is also a great source.

    Brushes
    Vintage Scent or shaving.ie

    Blades
    I tend to know what I like at the moment blade wise so have stocked up
    buying in bulk of 100 at a time from http://www.melyus.com/ or from
    http://doubleedgeshavingplace.com/ depending on what brand.
    (The latter has great prices on Feathers).

    Misc
    iherb.com for Thayers witch-hazel and Kiss My Face shaving cream.

    (Guess I could have just checked my Visa statement for the last while! :D)

    http://connaughtshaving.com because the P&P costs are relatively low, also, never fails to accept my 3V.ie virtual Visa card, non PayPal payment is *always* a plus..

    http://www.shaving.ie because they're quick and local. The prices are the same or lower than some UK merchants (do the exchange rate and add on costs for the Merkur HD razors..) I also like the P&P inclusive prices.

    http://www.shaving-shack.com Have a varied selection and a great loyalty reward scheme, spend £10 sterling and get 30 blades, the very same blades that I use. Non brand ASR \ Personna. The only downside being a set starting price on P&P for Ireland of £6 sterling.

    Connaught for blades and blade selection packs and low shipping costs.

    Edwin Jagger for shaving brushes and travel items.

    Shaving.ie for overnight delivery and good pricing. Speaking of which I ordered two tubs of TOBS and received them yesterday. The cost of both was €18.98 including VAT of €3.36 and because it was over €10 I got free shipping. The package arrived with an An Post stmap for €6. When you factor in the bubble wrap and box then you realise he's operating on a very small margin if that is typical of peoples orders!

    Have used Shaving,ie in the last few weeks,and have found them very good for shipping and cost of products,and being an Irish company will try and support him as much as I can in future purchases.
