Cheapest price for Israeli personna's on the Bay??

http://cgi.ebay.com/100ea-Personna-...ryZ35989QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Has anyone tried these from this seller? Price is fantastic, Are these the real deal or fakes? Can someone comment here!

 

...I dont think anybody would be selling fake israeli personas. Doesnt exactly sound like a profitable business. As for ~$.10 a blade, that sounds about right. If you like the blades, go for it. If you've never used them before, dont buy 100.

 

well I am not sure If I would buy 100, I figured IP are like derby's from what I have read, so I figured I wouldnt have any problems.

 

...Great this is what I suspected just re-read the article, the wording is tricky and unclear.

 

I've got some of those blades and they're all right. They are NOT the IPs I was looking for, though. I'm not sure of where they're made.

They work okay and that price is good. But if you want Derby blades, you might check out amazon.com. I got 100 blades for 12.50 last week. Shipping was something like three bucks. That's roughly the same price I've seen real IPs listed at on ebay and it's a better price on Derby blades than I've seen anywhere else. Derbys beat those blades hands down, for me anyway.

Don't spend you money on something you're not sure about, unless you're buying a sampler pack.

 

Thanks....I currently have lots of derby and merkur blades instock here, at home.so it's not that I was going dry!

 

If you havent yet used a ton of different blades, I'd suggest a sample pack from www.razorandbrush.com before investing in 100 of anything.

 

I have some that come packaged identically that I got from westcoastshaving for 10 cents a blade, and they are my favorite blades. They are not the "IPs" you might be thinking (crystals) but they are fantastic blades. I just traded all of my Derbys away because after trying these, I just don't like them any more. Gave them one last try last night, Red box personas and feathers for me.

 

I bought some of these a while back, they seemed Ok from what I remember. I will have to revisit them....

 

Great shave, no knicks.....felt smooth and comfortable....at that price I would buy them again

 

You will see these blades referred to as Red Personnas. I actually prefer these to the IPs. I use them for 3 shaves then toss. These along with Derbys are my normal every-day blades.

 

Why mess with ebay when you can get them from west coast shaving for $11.85 shipped?

I really like them and at 12 cents a blade you can toss them after a couple of uses plus west coast shaving ships almost instantaneously.

 

These red blades are made in the ASR Nazareth Plant in Israel but are not the same as IP's. These are an economie production blade, so cheaper; but many shavers have reviewed these as good blades, some even prefer these to the IP/Crystal blades.

So not fakes but not IP's/Crystals either. I would buy 10 or 20 first, just to see if you like them.

Not sure if ASR still makes blades in the US, I think most blades come out of their Nazareth plant now.

I think the walmart personas are US made, the walgreens ones from what I have seen are Israel. The walmart ones suck, the walgreens ones seem exactly the same as these.
