I purchased one today for $83 (including shipping). Looks like they are also available from shave nation. Edwin Jagger DE89 was my first DE razor and I loved it. I am excited to see how this one turns out. Anyone else buying one?

Was there a coupon? What is showing up in my cart is $99.

I’d pay $100 for that.

DE89 was my first too and still have it. I am quite tempted by this.

I think I see what is going on here. When you select 'US Dollar - USD' from the 'Your Currency' drop-down the price converts but is not correct. I do see $99 USD when this is selected and when 'GBP' is selected I see the ex vat price is 62.50 and is USD approx $80.

Use the GBP option, credit card should have minimal fee ($2-$3 for $80) if any at all (mine does) or use checking account through paypal with no fee (ymmv).

Strange, but that is exactly what happened. Keeping things in GBP and sending it to the US, it came out to around $84. I have a credit card that doesn't charge me foreign transaction fees and so I ended up paying exactly that. Now I just need to wait for the razor and hope that it lives up to the hype. So much for me waiting on the reviews before purchasing.

Dang it's about time. Surprised they didn't do this years ago.

The DE89 was my first razor too, but as it happens, I'm fresh out of nostalgia at the moment. I will be listening though, to see what kind of mojo this razor may have.

I’ve got the blue one on the way.

I’ll be interested in comparing it to the Muhle Rocca, which I love. I expect they will feel quite different.
