blade sampler

**crocto** · 11-29-2008, 11:58 AM

does anyone know of a place that sells bic, the sweedish gillettes and derby all in one location?

i want to try each of them but i don't want to buy a huge sampler pack (as these are the only ones i want to try) and i don't want to buy from a bunch of stores because shipping and handling is crazy.

i usually use the wilkinson sword blades. they are good but sometimes i find them not sharp enough.

Try www.westcoastshaving.com, you can atleast order all the blades your looking for from one place.

There is a popular supplier in Suffolk in the UK who offers all three, however linking to him is verboten.

You could try googling "gillette bic derby suffolk uk" and see what hits you get.

I've noticed there are a couple of "forbidden" web sites. What's the story with this? What did these people do to get on Santa's naughty list?

I would like to know also.

Without rehashing things, they didn't follow the rules in spite of repeated requests from Mods. It's worse than that, but this suffices. Ultimately, they were given the heave-ho.

Derby is offering free shipping right now; Just enter coupon code BB to buy 100 blades for $16.39. Don't need 100 blades? At that price, find some friends, and spread around the holiday joy!

Then get the Bic and Gillette blades from your seller of choice.

it looks like i'll just have to order from a couple of sites. i don't really want to buy 100 blades and then have to worry about 1) doing something with them if i don't like them or 2) having to worry about other people giving me money.
