GILLETTE FUSION Razor Blades

    Hi all

    Just wondering if anyone out there could recommend a reputable place for ordering Gillette Fusion Shaving Blades? Based on the company's Mach3 advertisement on TV at the moment it seems Gillette are "pushing" buyers into choosing the much more expensive FUSION blades as opposed to the cheaper MACH3 ones - I am actually starting to think that the MACH3 blades are not as good as what they used to be - I wonder if there is any connection there (conspiracy!!). Anyway, if anyone could recommend a cheap, trustworthy website for ordering FUSION blades I would be extremely grateful.

    Cheers!

    Could you not just buy them in a shop? It's not as if they're hard to get.

    Ebay tbh.

    Aye, Fusion blades are ridiculously expensive. The single blade on the back isn't meant for the groomage of proper facial hair. :P

    Bought mine in a chemist at the weekend. €12.99 for the razor with two blades and another 4 blades thrown in. Probably worthwhile going back and getting more, as even without the actual razor it's just over €2 a blade

    They're great by the way. I was a Mach3 user for ages until I finally caved and I'm glad I did

    got my fusion bout 2 month ago for €6 with 2 blades...wasnt gonna change from mach 3 but the blades do last a lot longer and the razor seems stronger than the MAch 3...(the head doesnt break when you drop it!!)
    spooted fusion blades for €14 which is a complete rip-off though!

    They're the best going imo. I like the fibrational function and a blade lasts me 4 months.

    Hey guys. Check this site out. <snip>. Get your Mach 3 and Mach 3 Turbo blades without getting ripped off and they are the real deal. Also, you can buy loads of them so even if Gillette (rip off merchants) decide to stop production, you won't need to worry. The guy who runs the site is sound and answers any questions pretty much instantly. Screw Tescos and all those chemists and stupid Irish government taxing razors as luxury items.

    Cheers for link.

    Site looks a tad dogey for me to be putting my credit card details into tbh.

    When I click on the product it cant be found.

    You don't have to put your credit card details in. You can pay directly into a Bank Of Ireland or an AIB account so I guess maybe that's a little safer. Like I said, I have emailed him and he seems sound. His name is Damian.

    I can't seem to find the blades for this product ANYWHERE. Can anybody help me. I live in the north Kildare/West Dublin area. Cheers.

    I think you should look here before buying blades on Ebay. So many fake blades out there, if you do suspect you have bought fake gillette blades return them to P&G.

    Are you sure they're not in your local shop? I work in Dunnes, and we have those blades- but not on the shelves. Because they're expensive we keep them behind the checkouts. Ask next time you're there, I can't imagine why any supermarket wouldn't sell them- though not always visible.
