Default Astronomical cost of razor blades

I got fed up with the cost of razor blades, we started with one cutting edge and then two edges etc, after each edge was added the cost multiplied.
No more, I purchased 100 old fashioned double edged blades from India for less than US$9 with free shipping and figured I'd try them out. They work great I haven't used one blade yet as it is still OK.
My wife sent away for a free razor and blade when ever she saw the samples advertised, I have lots of handles but refuse to pay $4 to $5 a blade. I have one unused Fusion blade and holder, I'll save it and use the less than 9 cent blades.
CLICK for eBay site where I got the blades.

Just seen this post.
I got a free sample of that with the blades, I thought it was after shave so I guess that would explain the stiff neck.

The blades are good and keep an edge well and they seem better after a few shaves. Probably made on old machinery that was dumped when the new fangled blades were sold to us.
