If it's counterfeit report them to Gillette and ask for a reward - be cheeky and ask for an electric shaver, worth a try. If they are selling bulk and to a lot of ebay customers you might just get it. If not they are bound to send you a few blades at least.0

i get my gillette sensor at the local market, pack of 10 for £5. Have been using them for years (not the same blades obviously!!) & feel that they give me the best shave.
I hate shaving................It's a great day for singing a song / It's a great day for moving along / It's a great day for morning to night / It's a great day for everybody's plight.

I used the mach 3 and thought they gave me the best shave, which it would on Monday and Tuesday. But by Wednesday my face would be feeling it and I hate shaving of a thursday and friday. I didn't shave at the weekend unless I had too.
But this new Fusion 5 Power from Gillette is superb. Well worth the extra money in my opinion. I know I keep harping on about it, but I really do believe its worth the extra few quid.badabing wrote:I hate shaving................
I still do too, but nearly as much as I did before.SIMPLE SIMON - Met a pie man going to the fair. Said Simple Simon to the pie man, "What have you got there?" Said the pie man unto Simon, "Pies, you simpleton!"0 -

I have no idea if this works or not.
But as it says, the cost of multi-blade razors surely makes it worth a try?0 -
The costco offer refered to above is valid Oct2 - Oct 8 and is 2*20 packs of Mach 3 blades for 18.98 +VAT - so about 56p per blade.0

The best thing I ever did was to start using shaving oil and either foam or cream at the same time. It gives you a much closer shave. Don't bother with the expensive oils from Charles worthington or King of Shaves as the cheap shop brand ones do just as good a job. Poundstretcher has oils for £1. But I do think the type of foam or creme that you use is important.
I was lured by a very good offer on the Quattro a few months back but it's not as good as the mach 3. Once I'm done with the blades I'll be trying the Fusion with my boots points. By then it should be on offer anyway.0 -

You obviously didn't get the same Quattro deal as myself Carl. I hit Mr T's about 18 months ago when they where selling Quattro four packs for £2.99. These also had a £3 off voucher inside, admittedly for an 8 pack but Mr T doesn't bother with such things. This being the case I took all the stock and got a penny a pack back. In short I will continue to be paid for shaving for at least the next 5 or 6 years.0
