Taffy, RMB7 for a packet of 'classic' Gillette razor blades, is a joke. They are most definitely copies!

I remember a few years ago when I was in Australia, me and a friend imported a bootload of them from China and knocked them out at $10 a pop on tinterweb. It wasn't long before we started being threatened by the Gillette company. They knew that they HAD to be fakes, because if they were genuine, we would be losing money at $10 a packet.

Chinese razor blades are awful. Every time I use one I end up with bits of rolled up tissue stuck all over my dial. In fact, 'Sam-the-Slasher' couldn't do a better job, lol.

About 18 months ago, I bought one of those 3-headed electric shavers for RMB50, and have used it every day since.
