    Glad I'm not the only one then! It totally reminded me of the bars of hash they show being smuggled in the movie Midnight Express lol

    I've bought Voskhods at least three times from unuta77 without any issues. I would recommend them to anyone. However you will need to be patient with regards to delivery times.

    Can't remember if all of my packages were wrapped in this bin bag material, but the last two consignments were.

    I was more reminded of Miami Vice, I wanted to cut a slit in the packaging, touch my pinkie to my tongue, "yeah, it's pure".

    So yeah, I now know why these things were held up in customs for 15 days. I'm surprised that the DEA didn't show up at my house :D

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    I"ll add my two cents in to the discussion of different sellers. gordeluxe is my least favorite...that's the one who offered the "free gift" that turned out to be one blade. And not even a great blade. Also took very long to arrive. I've ordered once from unuta77, 100 Voskhods, no issues. My normal go-to seller is businkaolya. The first two are in Moscow, businkaolya is in Chelyabinsk. I get fantastic service from Olga (businkaolya). Fastest shipper, best service, best everything. Sometimes the selection is a bit lacking but I am happy to wait until Olga gets restocked. As far as gordeluxe, I'm done. unuta77 I'd give another shot.

    Slow Joe Relishing his obsession

    I use Unata77. He is a great seller. I asked him if he would combine shipping if I bought 50 Vokshod blades and 50 Sputnik blades, to which he agreed. I received an invoice from him, but there was a problem with e bay and I could only pay the original shipping price instead of the combined shipping prices. I contacted the seller who suggested I just pay the higher prices on e bay and he would refund the difference. Within minutes of paying, I received an email from PayPal confirming that Unata77 had refunded the difference. I have ordered from him before and I will again.

    I was curious as to what the free gift was that gordeluxe offered., one blade huh. I'm glad I stuck with Unata77.

    I to have had no issues with Unata77, but did wonder what the free gift gordeluxe was offering. Thanks for clearing that up :)

    I emailed Gordeluxe over a week ago about a combined order and have yet to hear back. Will give one of the other two a try this time....

    I will definitely use unuta77 again too if there is something he has that I want/need, or the price beats Olga. Usually, though, they either match prices or one has the item and the other one doesn't. I especially keep an eye out for multiple packs. Getting 120 or 140 variety orders is my normal target.

    I have been getting replies from Andrey and Olga when sending messages to unuta77. Andrey is Gordeluxe, so they are somehow affiliated and/or the same person....

    Yesterday I purchased from unuta77, my paypal email said: "This email confirms that you have paid GORDENCO ANDREY (unuta77 @ list.ru)"

    Back in the 70's I used to smuggle Voskhods out of Turkey.
