  • Razor blades bought online might be copies mind.

    You will be ok with amazon they wouldn't sell fakes and Gillette wouldn't let them get away with it even if they did.

    You do get people selling fakes on amazon. They won't be sold by amazon, but through them.

    Worth noting that these can also be used in the Fusion Power razors. The difference is unnoticeable, just the price!

    I bought some of these for my hubbys Fusion Power Razor and he used them once and then said could I buy him the proper power blades as they were dreadful in comparison and didnt work properly with the vibration of the razor.

    The ones in my link?

    They don't seem fake, we compared them to a pack bought in tesco and they seem the same.

    Be very careful with blades as there are a lot of fakes around. I guess you can only go off reviews. Worth buying 1 packet to see of they are any good. We bought some from amazon for cheap and they didn't shave properly and the packaging was slightly off colour. Just be careful

    I based my opinion on this thread http://www2.slybaldguys.com/smf/index.php?topic=1871.0

    Judge for yourselves.
