Yes

I think that's how I found out about them about a year ago, but when I logged on the site was down for a while and after when they reopened they did not stock March 3 blades.

Hi

I was trying last night but had the same problem as you. I'm going to send a mail to them to check what the problem is.

Will let you know how I get on.

Yeah, sorry nava, I had another item in there too, so when i went with the blades only, it was free. Still no payment methods though!

What was it?

Flinty

Another item...thats all you need to know

Just looking at the payment methods (if we can ever pay) and they accept paypal, which is great.

andrew1977

hi folks,
i e-mailed their support this morning, no answer as yet
hope it does come true and we can buy those blades at crazy low prices
i will buy in mass bulk and never have to buy a packet of blades ever again
local convenience store/petrol station charge me 12 euro for a 4 pack last week,late at night,i had no choice,never again.i would grow a 20ft beard before i would give them 12 euro again for blades

I was thinking of doing exactly the same thing I emailed them last night also about the payment problem but no answer yet either.

pissed

I also emailed them last night with the same problem, still no reply as of yet

Same problem here, no payment method and emailed them yesterday evening about it but got no reply either.

I think we are being taken for a ride here boys (no pun intended Flinty). Nobody has posted a comment yet to say that they have dealt with them in the past.

I suspect we could all be getting a lot of spam after this.

andrew1977

good call, my suspicions are aroused on this too, how can they offer them so cheap, they are way cheaper than blades on e-bay.
very suspect,only time will tell .
i wish they would hurry up, my 40ft beard needs a trimming

The_Conductor

They have now apparently reduced the price to Euro 3.48
I smell something fishy......

Just got this:

Dear Customer,
Apologies for the recent problems that were experienced while attempting to process an order at A1Lovers.com.

Due to unprecedented demand following a 50% sale, our payment processing system had to be temporarily disabled, as stocks had run low.

We hope to rectify this problem shortly, and will email all customers, when orders are again being processed.
Best Regards, and thanks for visiting our online store.

Support, A1Lovers.com

We'll see..

muffler

Heres the reply I got and I assume everyone else that emailed will get the same

Interesting to note that the stocks had run low AFTER the sale. Probably everything will be back up in price again.

andrew1977

Yip...got the same e-mail response in my inbox this evening .

The tax man

Site Down for Maintenance ...:(
That must have been one hell of a sale.:D

Flinty

Yeah, got the mail too. Let's hope they get back up soon and they come through on their prices, coz they are unreal.

Why are Mach3 blades so riduculously expensive in the first place?
All you get is three slivers of a decent quality metal encased in a couple of grammes of plastic. All joking aside there are more materials in many cheap toys in the EuroShop and proably as much manufacturing costs. Realistically how much do they cost to make? Although a good product they are a total rip-off.

Aparantly they are the most stolen item in Britain (possibly Ireland) so the price we pay has to include the cost of all the stolen ones.

Hi

They were talking about the same on the Radio a few months ago, some guy from Gillette said it was because of the material used on the blades and what ever they need to do to it. But I think they charge the price because people have to use so they will pay the price.

Also got the same e-mail, lets hope they come back in stock soon.

Haha visious circle, people rob them cause there so expensive for something that shouldnt be then they have to put there price up to pay for the robbery and then more people wouldnt mind buying cheap ones from some punter in a pub :P I think ebay is the way to go i cant remember how much i got them for but i got a 32 pack for nothing compared to shop prices

Right, well I'm going to get some stuff off these if the site comes back up. But, has anyone ever bought off them, or even know anyone who has?

Flinty

Site Still not back up

It isn't amazing there is so little competition in this market.

You have 2 global players.
