1000 Dorco ST301, just hoarding and I had some Amazon money burning a hole in my virtual wallet from a product return. Dorco blades are substantially less expensive by unit purchased in large lots.

I'm a little bit worried you might suffer from razor blade buying addiction
No need to worry about the possibility. It's true!I'm a little bit worried you might suffer from razor blade buying addiction
Maybe I found the Korean-made Dorco blades!!!! Are these the ones they sell on Barbaebaffi.it store website?
In the Italian forum I read that Dorco changed the New Platinum writing to HQ Technology in 2018.
Would there be any productions of blades that Dorco produced between 2014 and 2018 in South Korea?
I don't know. If someone says yes and is convinced, they can write it.
Them are just the ones with the very old Dorco logo pre-2014 that I don't think have ever been seen apart from Walmart and the South Korean store.
The real Dorco blades of Korean production are only those with the logo pre-2014 in my screenshot that hasn't been seen for ages... From 2014 to today Dorco has changed the logo two or three times, but the Korean ones are only those with the very old logo that hasn't been seen for many years. Something doesn't add up.
I was surprised when suddenly it seemed like they were also on Amazon. Maybe they insert the wrong photos of what they actually sell. I'm still looking for them.
If you are sure that somewhere they sell and actually ship the Korean ones produced before 2014, please let me know where you found them because I would like to try them again.

Found and bought 100 Rapira Super Stainless for the equivalent of 4 dollars and 200 Derby Usta blades for another 4 dollars. 8 dollars total, including shipping. Doesn't get any better than that. Some incredible deals out there.
Bought 200 Filoso. I’ve just recently found these and they have quickly jumped up my ladder of faves.
I scored a very good deal on the Gillette Perma-Sharp. Of course, I did not need them. But there's always some space left for storing extra 100 blades. Right? 
Personna Comfort Coated (Lab Blue?) that I ordered from Walmart.
USA made, plain paper for the individual blades and no print or laser etching on the blades.
I do rather like the minimalist packaging.

There’s need and then there’s “need.” A top notch blade IMO. Along with the GSBs you can never have too many like stocking up on a favorite vintage of wineI scored a very good deal on the Gillette Perma-Sharp. Of course, I did not need them.

Words of wisdom, Sir.
200 Treet Durasharp. 100 Bic Chrome Platinum. 100 Gillette Nacet. 100 Shark Platinum. 100 Gillette 7 O'clock Yellow. 100 Gillette 7 O'clock Green. 100 Perm -Sharp. All of these blades seem to go well with my skin type. They provide a smooth, close shave with no irritation. All were reasonably priced. Bad case of BAD. Also thinking of adding Personna Red's, Treet Platinum and Parker Platinum. Looks like I'm stocking up for the Shave Apocalypse.

So, you’re good for the next couple of weeks?
1000 Dorco ST300s they are cheap and work great
700 Flydear
I got 400 for free after getting refunded for receiving 400 flydear when I ordered 400, 1.3mm thick blade. I did not give these Flydear a complete proper test, but for my first shave; the blade felt a little rough at first, but became very smooth by the time I reached the second half of my face. I got a few good shaves out of one blade and the first blade is still going. These don't appear to be the sharpest blades from the bunch, as in some shaves I had to do a fair amount of buffing, but they are giving me some very close, smooth, almost no face impact shaves. Granted, I am using the Stanford sharpener and twinplex stropper between shaves, and haven’t found a new blade that I can’t make shaveable yet, but these appear to be fairly good quality, so I am OK with them.
I purchased more partially out of courtesy for the free ones, but mainly because I have a hard time resisting amazing deals. I checked the current deals on Aliexpress and saw a deal for $2.33 for 100, and a $4 off coupon if I purchased 10. But after logging into my account, that deal disappeared and the best deal I could find was $2.49 for 100. This deal only had seven left, so I got 700 more, which is perfect as I thought that a thousand more will be too much. I am not sure why I was concerned about having 1400 over 1100, but hey, 1100 is plenty for me. Probably enough to pass on to my future great great grandkids.
Anyway, $15 for 700 is quite amazing, as some hundred packs cost more than $15.

Some friends came back from a trip to Beijing with a gift for me. They said this cost like the equivalent of $25 locally at a market for 2100 blades. Wow.
What I sort of think is strange is why are Suneko boxes in English? You would think product sold domestically would be in Chinese.

Another day another 100. This time some Voskhod
100 Gillette Wilkinson Swords. I really didn't need them, but at $6.24/100, my mouse just started moving like a Ouija board cursor!
I guess I'm in hoarding mode because I just ordered 100 each of Nacets and the Personna CC.
Every time I look online, the prices have increased somewhat, so that's my justification.
