Schick Quattro 8 Pack Refill $5 Plus $10 Postage - Harvey Norman Online

520

I was looking around for some Schick Quattro blades (cheaper than Coles/Woolies) and stumbled across Harvey Norman. These are probably grey import I'm guessing since they are cheap. Even on Ebay (Korean imports) aren't this cheap.

No in store pick up. The postage does kill it if only buying 1 pack, but if you want to buy a years or so supply then the postage is reasonable.

Edit: Postage to capital city of TAS or WA or NT is $15.

I ended buying 5 packs for $35 incl postage, which is 40 blades - which is 87.5c per blade. Even if a blade only lasts a fortnight - that's 1.5years worth of shaving!

    "Even if a blade only lasts a fortnight"…
    What the…

    My 'Excel' blades last for about 5 months. Admittedly, I only shave every 4 days… and no, I don't end up with a face full of toilet paper 'bits'. No cuts at all.

      Haha, balancing between worst case scenario for those with coarse hair and if these blades are not the best quality and since they are not Quattro Titanium branded ones.
      So even if they turn out to be crap quality, they're still worth it, considering how cheap they are. :)

        Use face wash before shaving and razors last WAY longer as they dont get clogged with dead skin. Also makes shaving easier.

        • +3

          I use an old toothbrush to clean out the hair and skin and crap from the blades, then dip the head in metho and store it in my cabinet.

          Dead skin and corrosion are what kills disposable razor blades/blade heads.

          I've been using the same Mach3 head for well over 6 months now, although I too only shave 3/4 days a week.

        • @xyron: Try denim. Works perfect to increase life and very quick and easy. http://lifehacker.com/5356529/extend-your-razors-life-with-a…

        • I can rinse mine out with water and they're clean, no need for a toothbrush at all no matter how old they are. Also makes the shaving itself easier as it's not fighting through the dead skin.

    Cheers, ran out of blades this morning!

  • Still a bargain :)

    Can I use these without handle? I only have gilette handles.

  • Wonder if there is a quality difference, if they are grey imports.

    • +2

      There may be a question of local warranty too.

      • ACL applies here so no problems.

        • I trust you're joking along aswell, right?

  • anyone know if the $5 signup bonus is still active ?

      I got mine a year or so ago. It was meant to "expire" in 72 hours or something. Just used it now with no problem.

  • Do these fit into the Hydro handle ?

    • +2

      Hydro and Quattro are not interchangeable, i just tried

  • https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/182072 if anyone wants the titaniums.

  • Thanks for this. Normally use titanium, but I don't think it matters that much. At this price I can't help myself. Nothing worse than using blades when they are blunt.

  • nice price cut

  • Only $10 shipping, regardles bargain.

  • +1

    Thanks. Just bought six lots and used my $5 signup bonus.
    $35 for 48 cartridges (shipped) is an absolute steal.

  • +1

    Just realised after I bought it that I have a Hydro handle - which apparently isn't compatible. :'(

    Does anyone know where one can buy the Schick Quattro handle?

  • wheres the cheapest quattro handle i can get?

    • Hi

      Someone else had posted this deal for 100% cashback on Schick rasors. Should workout for you.

      https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/182908

      • But it's Hydro… :(

      • they are hydro, and i already have a hydro handle.

        apparently quattro blades dont work with hydro.

      A good and cheap quattro handle is Aldi's "Prince" brand Calibre 6, it fits quattro titanium blades. $7.99 I think, and you get 2 blades.

      But the real bargain is that when you use one of those aldi blades you'll realise that they are easily as good as the Schick quattro titaniums, and then you'll never pay $16 for a pack of 4 blades ever again.

      • +1

        Nice to know ALDI Prince is interchangeable with Quattro and that the Prince blades are good

      • +1

        I tried the Prince blades and didn't like them.
        Found them to be a harsh shave and ended up with nics.

        Also tried the Coles Rapid 5, which is basically a re-branded Personna M5 Magnum/X5 (as sold in USA), and found them to be lousy too.

        For me nothing beats the Mach 3. Been burnt with fakes from OzB, so only buy on sale from supermarkets.
        Combined with a RazorPit blade sharpener I get about 1 month from each blade, so it's not too bad.

          Razorbit is the bomb, haven't changed my blade in months now.

  • Website not working for me. It says added to cart, but then my cart shows empty!! Any idea?

  • Schit! out of stock?
    :(

  • Looks like they've run out of stock. I've expired the deal.

    got mine this morning, definitely looks like grey import - has thai, korean and arabic on the sides.

  • Got mine yesterday. They're made in Germany.

  • After purchasing a week ago, just got an email from HN telling me "oops out of stock" refund and nothing else.

  • Merged from Schick Quattro Blades 8 Pieces $5.00 + $10 - $15 Del @ Harvey Norman

    This deal was posted on 17/02/15 https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/183304. Was marked as expired, now back in stock.

    Don't forget the $5.00 voucher on sign up if still available.

    • I haven't got my order from last time yet. Not even sure if it has been shipped.

    • Got mine very quickly. Nice and cheap way to stock up on blades!

  • Do they have any blades for the Gilette 3000? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YleuLyCUx28

  • I emailed about my order and guess what? Has been 2 weeks now and still not shipped. Here's why:

    Unfortunately, our warehouse has just informed us that the stock that they have is all damaged. I have checked our stock levels, and we have one other location with stock, however, they are in the process of moving and can't ship out yet.

    Any surprise?

    • From one professional to another, I think it would sound more professional for them to write, "We regret to say there has been a delay dispatching your order, however we reassure you it will be on your way shortly.".

  • I've just received an email saying:

    "Due to unforeseen circumstances this item is now out of stock and is no longer available, we are therefore unable to fulfil your order."

  • Ordered mine yesterday got email saying out of stock

  • Same here. Maybe we need to address to Garry Harvey to put his money where his mouth is. No wonder the franchises system is dying and Newbies like Kogan have a go at him.

    Katie Page or David Achery on the executive board would love to hear how abysimal their online system is.
