hello everyone. i have a problem. i have been wet shaving for several months. it is a great hobby. i usually purchase items from maggard and italian barber, based mainly on the recommendations of the shaving evangelist, chris bailey. these vendors are excellent. however, my local post office is the problem. they have made ordering a hassle due to their screwups. what i want from you is the names of online vendors who allow a choice that includes fed ex , ups, or anyone that is not usps. this has become an expensive peoblem. i await your input and thanks in advance,

Every vendor I have purchased from uses USPS because it vastly less expensive than ground shipping via FedEx or UPS.

There is a chance that a vendor would be willing to work with you on a case-by-case basis to ship via other means, if you contact them via email or telephone.

In my experience, Maggard Razors are exceptionally easy to work with and very willing to meet your needs as a consumer. It may result in nothing, but in my opinion, it can't hurt to reach out to them and see if they can work with you, or come up with a viable solution to the problem.

Interesting. USPS would be my first choice. All of the three big shippers (USPS, FedEx, UPS) have screwups but I find the Post Office the best of the lot and, as BadDad points out, very often are the least expensive.

I'd imagine that most Vendors would be able to accommodate your request, although it may delay your order if it's outside their usual shipment options.

I would agree. I'd also note that Gareth [@thehandlebar] is definitely one of my most preferred vendors and has curated a great selection of quality goods. Another great option for you to work with!
