Thank you for speaking up and supporting us in this hobby! It is truly something that should be talked about more, without fear of backlash for being honest

@IAMCDB 2 года назад

Thank you, sir. A lot of people are afraid of the fanboy backlash. Fortunately I do not now, nor have I ever cared about this:) We all need to push back and stand firm on it.

@mattpedro983 2 года назад

A while back I bought a tub of the Unscented Game Changer base, and shortly afterwards I got an email from Mark saying that he was adjusting the price on his soaps and that I could either have a five dollar refund or put it towards shop credit on my next purchase. I thought that was really cool of him to do, so I just told him to keep it. I can't wait until he has a full line of splashes to go with all of his different scents.

@IAMCDB 2 года назад

That is fantastic. I'm so glad to hear it Matt.

@slisyd 2 года назад

Glad you are talking about pricing. Most of us have 50 100 soaps etc we dont need to buy them we just like adding more scents to our arsenal. We dont have to buy we want to buy. If the prices are out of control then we wont buy.

@IAMCDB 2 года назад

I hope others will start to push back on it as well. I am not against price increases across the board, I realize this will happen. I am totally against price increases when they aren't modest or reasonable in the eye of the consumer. In hobbies we have to share the cost burden when prices go up. We have to pay a little more and the businesses need to accept that they'll make a little less. This is sharing the burden.

@brightsunshine4277 2 года назад

You are so right, those who have gone sky high with their prices must be held accountable

@IAMCDB 2 года назад

Yep. At a minimum we can let them know this is a hobby, we don't have to buy it. We don't mind paying a little more but that cost burden should be shared. Inflation hits all of us and we're all taking a pay cut right now. We can pay a little more, and they can accept that they're going to make a little less also. That's a fair compromise in my view.

Hopefully those residents of this new town will take note. Blessing and prayers for you and your family.

I agree Unc. We understand modest price increases but when it's significant, people will just choose not to buy. The cost burden should be shared. That is to say, we're paying a little more and they are making a little less. That's fair in my view.

@IAMCDB 2 года назад

I agree Mack. I don't think that the artisans who are raising their prices too much realize the unintended consequences of doing so. A modest increase we understand, when it's beyond that it prices them out. People are being more selective and raising it significantly right now will hurt them even more in the long run.

@stogiedude 2 года назад

Hi Chris, I plan to buy the Leaf for my head shaves as soon as my Harry's razors are down to almost zero. My complaint with Harry's is that the blades clog easy due to how close they sit in the blade. Does the leaf have similar issues?

@lisamelting 2 года назад

I received an email a few weeks ago from a well known artisan company. I won’t name the company, but the email was sent from the mascot known as Doug. The email went on to say the price increase he was imposing was justified because this is his full time job, and not part time like so many other artisans. For some reason that just rubbed me the wrong way. If it’s a full time endeavor then you should have significant purchasing power advantages over the part timers. Anyways, there are so many quality offerings at affordable prices, one not waste time with the others. Rant over. On a positive note, I was looking for a reason to make an order from The Razor Company. You just nudged me enough…I’m ordering some Dentonmajic soap right now. Thanks in advance for bringing another quality artisan into the spotlight.

@IAMCDB 2 года назад

I like Doug and PAA and I will use their stuff. That said, he was already priced at nearly $25 for CK6, which was on the high side for years relative to the competition. I'm good with the regular CK price, but CK6 at $26 now will be too high for something I purchase regularly. I might by a one off but I will definitely be more selective about buying at that price.

@lisamelting 2 года назад

@@IAMCDB Craziness! I feel the same way about Ariana & Evans lately. They have some great products, but at $5 an ounce it was on the pricey side, and then there's the never ending reformulating with ever increasing prices. Although there is the Pedro Fiasco line which is more affordable, but again I'm just a little turned off by the business practices.

@stevem1563 2 года назад

I haven’t noticed the increases so much. Maybe it is the brands I gravitate to. Expensive brands are expensive and value brands still offer value. I am interested in hearing who has been over the top in their price increases. I think there are more premium offerings then ever, but I generally do not buy those brands, especially when they are new. Groceries and goods at the store have been rising sharp. Anyways, have a great day Chris.

@IAMCDB 2 года назад

In 2017 fine raised the splashes from 15 to 20. A couple of days ago they said they are increasing from 20 to 24. That's just one example:) Another artisan went from $16 to 20 not too long ago. There are more and some I don't care to mention.

I, and I’m sure I mean WE, appreciate you speaking out about unacceptable rising prices in the artisan end. I understand the rising costs to do business, and the need for profit, but when I feel the increases are being added in the belief that they won’t be noticed…then that pisses me off. I just won’t do business with them in the future, or I’ll just look for a used product from the artisan. Transparency matters.

@IAMCDB 2 года назад

100% brother. I'm absolutely accepting of modest increases and I agree to pay a little more. When you're raising something from $16 to $20 or tacking $4 on a splash, my answer is mostly gonna be no.

@lastshadow9351 2 года назад

Very nice Chris! I was just thinking it would have been cool to use a soap like razzel-berry sno-cone. I just made that one up, but if I made soaps, you can bet that there would be a mentholated blue raspberry soap and the soap would be blue! Hard to believe that someone would basically say the Leaf is junk. They have the numbers, reviews, and the design has stood up over time. Ridiculous! I had reservations and didn't try one for a long time, but the product won me over and I'm a supporter. You have to be measured in your words, because you'll anger some and they'll walk away from your product and never say a word. To be frank there's a lot of artisans/companies that have a lot of fat built into their product already and should use it to weather this storm if they want to keep customers. MSC has a good price, he's shipping from South Africa, and he's been making a living at it.

The prices are going up on everything, unfortunately. I don't think artisans are raising prices arbitrarily, but as a result of their increased costs. It's ironic how this wasn't a problem at the height of the pandemic, but only after everything is going back to normal. Seems like there would be someone in power who would be to blame for all this....

@IAMCDB 2 года назад

I have the benefit of talking to a lot of folks in the business. I know generally what things cost and how business is done. You're seeing a dramatic difference in the way some choose to do business. These are the ones I'm talking about. I'm not talking about modest increases to help offset cost, I'm talking about ones going beyond that. The fact of the matter is that some artisans are having increases but the costs are still acceptable. Quite frankly, they need our money more than the artisans that have always had inflated prices and now are increasing them even more.
