What is the largest quantity of blades you have bought at one time?

I do go for some quality merchandise myself, don't get me wrong, especially if it's a kind of "this is my only one" thing - why not have the one you absolutely want.

I don't see how I'll ever upgrade though, because I'm not going to drop £150+ on a razor I haven't tried or at least held in the flesh, and these things aren't really knocking about locally to me to go and see them. Buying off reviews, especially in this game, is so risky.

I'm pretty happy with my shaves, at least I think so, but there is always that itch that maybe there's something better of course.

Always thinking...
Shame there isn’t a “have a go” place :laugh:

Let’s all pop round to @Nishy for a shave, he’s got everything! :roflmao:

Probably 100 ... GEMs.

With DE blades, the cost saving is exponential. 100 can be as cheap as just four time what 10 might cost you.

A couple of posts here have mentioned an objective of reducing their hoard to one razor, blade and soap. To me this is equivalent to getting married at a very early age and hoping to stay faithful during the course of your life together. Surely, having a few different razor/blade/soap combinations is the source of happiness? Would you really want that desert island conundrum without actually being on a desert island?

I seek a simple life with minimum "clutter", but that's just the way I am. Not saying it's right or for everyone, but I have too much on my mind anyway without worrying how many unused soaps are hiding under the sink and what I've spent/wasted/could have done with the money instead, and the associated guilt.

It's all too stressful for me to be anything other than pragmatic.

And why shave with second best?
I’m not saying I’ll find the BEST, but if I can get something close enough for me, why use something that’s not as good?
Second best will always be exactly that.

1000 Gillette Silver Blue.
Ebay seller had loads and priced them well below market value. I bought 1000 and hoped for the best (could be too good to be true and all that...)
They were legit and by the time I'd received my package, the seller doubled the price.
Had I known then what I know now, I would have bought 10,000 of them.
