![]() ![]() They do still make a cream but that's hardly a great soap and it doesn't actually smell like Old Spice. But, as we all know, Old Spice no longer makes shaving soap. I love the scent of Old Spice, so much so that it's the only aftershave I use as I don't really feel a need to splash anything else on. ![]() Hello and welcome to the 15th installment of The Great Spice Off! What is The Great Spice Off? With that out of the way, I'll review the soap without any commentary toward the makers themselves. It's everyone's own choice whether or not to buy from PAA (I personally have stopped, but bought a brush from them before I knew the history that I still use) but I obtained this soap through a third party for the purpose of being a completionist and to review a soap many who do buy from PAA might want to hear about. Spring is Imminent - Your springiest Stirling soapĭr Mudgil (dermatologist) & Sri (Wholly Kaw)īefore we begin and before there are 20 questions in the comments about what's wrong with PAA, you can find the wiki on it here. This is a community for discussions, reviews, and general sharing of thoughts about wet shaving and life in general.īe respectful, have a sense of humor, and don't cause needless drama. But no, the CEO thinks he knows better, he doesn't need to learn anything from other's, he's got it all figured out.DARK MODE LIGHT MODE IRC CHAT DISCORD CHAT WIKI RULES You can look at other stores who do it better, Captains Choice, Stirling, ShaveNation, West Coast Shaving, just to name a few right off the bat. Some people are just hard work and it is not their responsibility to manage insecurities and personal issues. My guess is that PAA is more than happy to not have a 100% customer retention record. ![]() The analogy that springs to mind is where Groucho Marx tells a bank manager he’ll take his overdraft elsewhere. ”Refusal to innovate“ by changing product lines is essentially criminal behaviour and attempting to engage with a dissatisfied customer is indeed “childlike”.īut seriously, there is a difference between offering a friendly opinion and going on a rant and making it all about feeling “respected” when the CEO was quite clearly reacting and responding to the TONE of the “advice”. Woe betide the CEO of any company that does not respect its customers.Įspecially one who ignores the demand of a customer that they “do better” by not providing a selection of products that one would like to see.Īt the very least they should have a large range of $15 polishing cloths to entice budget-minded customers. I've learned enough about the man that I need to know, dissowned! But no, the CEO thinks he knows better, he doesn't need to learn anything from other's, he's got it all figured out. Instead of having a flame war with a CEO of a company who acts like a child, I decided to just no longer buy from his company ever again. I felt disrespected, and I never replied to his email after that. To be honest, I never wanted a reply to the feedback I provided, but it was obviously not anonymous, because he emailed me over it.Ī CEO of a company who refuses to take feedback seriously, and chooses not to innovate, or improve selection of items on the store, is doomed to fail. Instead of taking my feedback as a sign that maybe PAA should do better as a company, and provide more variety of brushes and lather bowls, he acted like a child, went all defensive, considered my feedback a joke, and was totally dismissive about my points. And even more absurdly, he claimed that a couple of lather bowls on his site was enough too, and there was no need for more. Then he went on the defensive approach like a child, and he claimed that a dozen brushes with simple handles, and no innovation was enough. In the email he sent me, he thought my feedback was a joke, I kid you not! And he said that more then once in his email to me. ![]()
