RoyalOrleans Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 Who the fuck sets the prices for these things? Check out the list of prices on this link ----> Razorblade Cartridges @ shopping.com An 8 cartridge pack is set at twenty dollars? Sure they may last a while, but in their right mind shaves once a year to get their money's worth? Most men and women use the cartridge based personal razor as opposed to the electric models. I believe they cut better, not prone to the maintenance an electric is, and leave a smoother, closer shave. Not to mention, you don't run the chance of electrocution or battery dying mid-shave. I use the Gillette Fusion currently and am pleased with its performance. What I find so mind-fuckingly outrageous is the price of the cartridges! In most cases, it is cheaper to buy a completely new razor than it is to purchase the cartridges. GF, how do you feel about the cost of the cartridge razor?

manicmonday Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 GF, how do you feel about the cost of the cartridge razor? I only use a razor to shave the bikini line, so I don't have to replace it that often. I use Nair for the legs. I think if I was having to use a razor for my face and replace it fairly often, I would find the price outrageous. Anyone remember the 90's when we were subjected to the Epilady? It didn't shave, it pulled the hairs out by the roots. Painfully. Quote The dick has no conscience and the heart has no rational abilities.

smutt butt Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 5 mach three's will last me 6 months. I could go 3 days in boot camp without shaving. LOL!

Lethalfind Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 I was going to pick up some replacement cartridges at Costco and was shocked at the price, usually buying in bulk cuts down on the price. I plan on having the hair on my legs laser removed one of these days, it would be nice to never have to shave again. Quote I am a pathetic piece of shit leeching single mom.

Well from the pictures that I've seen of you, snaffy, a razor would dull itself upon first stroke.

Zukiman Posted October 1, 2006 Posted October 1, 2006 I have an old Sensor that I bought in 91 and it still works fine. I can get a 5 pack of blades for about 6 bucks. The new razors are a ripoff. Who the hell needs 4 cutting blades? 2 is more than enough. Quote
RoyalOrleans Posted October 2, 2006 Author Posted October 2, 2006 Who the hell needs 4 cutting blades? 2 is more than enough. Two bladed cartridges ain't made a cunt hair's worth of dough since their fucking inception.

Ahhlee Posted October 2, 2006 Posted October 2, 2006 I use Gillette's Venus for a close shave and you are right, the replacement blades are fucking expensive! I think the last batch I bought at Wal-Mart was around $8 and change for 4 blades. I tried the Epilady when it first came out. It took about 1/2 an hour of pure torture to clear a 2x2 inch patch of skin on my leg. Screw that. Quote

RoyalOrleans Posted October 2, 2006 Author Posted October 2, 2006 They sell the shit out of them so the point is? That despite the lackluster reception of the two-bladed razor, the three to five bladed razor has all the bells and whistles, marketing gimmicks, and pretty packaging one can expect in this dominion of toiletries. Let's not forget fucking Nair for Men. Quote To be the Man, you've got to beat the Man. - Ric Flair Everybody knows I'm known for dropping science.
