It's not normal, but annoyingly common. I never have use facebook and never will. People running their business there will have to do it without me being a customer.Is it normal to run a business from Facebook?
So annoying missing out on updates for those of that don't use it.
Well they won't sell me a handle on its own
Yeah I bought a couch in a sale before Christmas. After doing the paperwork and arranging a delivery date...
The guy...''Payment by card I presume?''
Me...''Cash''
The guy...''Oh we don't like working with cash''
Me...''Yeah but I do'' and slapped the folding stuff on the table.
He wasn't impressed and got a Her from somewhere to observe the transaction.
Between them Him and Her counted the dosh twice each. Distinctly odd.
Very odd, as I thought that all parties had now got this sorted out, administratively speaking. I guess that the Alumigoose hasn't been advertised, at least at MR, until the subscribed list has been dealt with. There was a limited number of razors in stock mentioned (don't have the exact number to hand at the moment). If the Kickstarter goes OK, which I hope as I'm a backer, then the Single Edge will presumably go on general sale this half, and there is another SE due from Razorock, which doubtless will be the usual buying stampede.Yet another strange way for Mongoose to conduct business. I have been down the road with them before. They have 2 USA vendors Maggard Razors and Straight Razor Designs. They chose to sell the Alumigoose through Maggard only at this time. I am on their list but received no email today about availability from Maggard. I guess I am all the way down on their list. The dreaded list. But both vendors have been re-stocked with the satin Mongoose razors with no site advertisement for the Alumigoose. I can't wait for iKon and Bullgoose Shaving to come out with their own SE AC razors probably end of year for next year.

Edit
I've just seen a belated email from Mongoose, which says contact from MR will be in the order that we were put on the Mongoose list. I've been in touch with them more than once and going back to before the Alumigoose was even in production. They also say they're ramping up production and should be enough to go around without punters resorting to eBay or BST.
