For all you shavers on a budget

Rather funny commercial, whether you shave or not. Definitely designed for web culture. Of course, I realize I'm now a pawn in their low budget marketing scheme, as I'm sure they intended for this video to get cross posted all over the web...whatever.

Apparently it's legit. Just read an article on Forbes about it. Looks fairly new, but has anyone here had any experience with them yet? I'm definitely interested in any feedback regarding their products.

Lol, that's a awesome commercial.

That was on Tosh.O too. It is hilarious and I am considering joining too.

I saw it a couple weeks ago, and have been considering it for sure. If all else fails, at least their marketing is good.

Interesting article in Forbes magazine about Dollar Shave Club:
Big Brands Should Fear The 'Dollar Shave Club' Effect - Forbes

From that article:

Quote:

It should have been obvious to Gillette and Schick brand managers for some time that their customers believe they are greedy bastards. This may or may not be true but the perception is important. By allowing consumer aggravation to rise, they have plowed a fertile field for Dollar Shave Club to grow.

I believe disposable razors are overpriced. Even the highest end ones like the Fusion only last me a few days before starting to tug instead of cut; I shave daily.

For the life of me, I can't figure out why or how people report their razors lasting "months" unless they only shave once a week.

I'm supposed to shave more than once a week? Yes, I fall into the months category.
