Thread: Too good to be true!?

10Pups posted a link above to the sticky that all members here should probably have memorized (since none of us will likely consult it when in the heat of an ebay frenzy). I've been around here too long to ignore the names on that list. Yeah you can get lucky with a GD or other blade on there occasionally, but as a rule, the blades on that list are problematic at best. The blade maker in the OP is on the list, so, until I hear otherwise, I'll watch as others take their chances on them. I hope they get it together and produce consistently high quality blades, but until that's established, well, they're on "the list". One related thing that does seem fair might be the ability to take a brand off the list if they turn it around at some point, but that's up to the administrators here and I'm sure they can do it should a maker on the list achieve consistent quality.

Agree! The list is helpful

There has been several attempts to start a razor manufacture in the U.S but they never panned out. To do mass production requires a big investment with no guarantee of success and small scale operations mean high prices since it's the numbers that make it economically feasible.
