Bought a couple and cant tell the difference between this and the ones you buy at Chemist warehouse,called P&G to confirm its the real deal, they said yes it is genuine. These ones are made in Mexico.
Chemist warehouse has 12 pack for $29.99 but hey hardly have stock in store, never managed to find it.
Yup but see the net link lol can you read it? ven if you could read spanish its blurry. yeah its the real deal. checked just in case.
Straya tax makes us think $9.95 for 4 disposable refills is a good deal.
You'd think so, but I got burnt in last years post-Christmas sales. The ones from Shaver Shop Miranda were fakes. I lost the receipt, so couldn't take them back, and would they believe you if you tried?
The "moisture" strip comes off on the fakes, and of course they don't last nearly as long as the genuine ones.
Really? That strip has come off every one I've ever owned.. but they do last.
I've only just started on genuines (presumably, since I got them from Coles). I've not gone through the first razor cartridge, but the moisture strip has stayed intact so far.
(Note: According to the Gillette packaging, a "razor" is the stick/handle, and a "cartridge" is the part with the blades.)
Gillette Mach 3 Turbo 4
With or without Hyperdrive ???
Sorry what is that?
To shave where no shaver has gone before…
lol i recommend you use a beard trimmer first mate.
Hyperdrive is technology used in Stargate NOT Star trek.
You can get a 10 pack of genuine ones delivered on amazon for 13.50AUD.
…these are naturally aspirated.
Coming soon > Gillette Mach 3 Supercharged.
do you think we will see biturbo version? usually more power than a supercharger :)
The Amazon ones are not turbo charged. I want it fast
I have bought them in the past from water gardens shaver shop
They are german/brazil grey imports
I do not recommend them as they dont last as much as the ones in coles/safeway
Same. Bought some at Chadstone store and definitely don't last as long.
I want to share my story with you all. Orion, I back you up on this 100%. I got mine from shaver shop miranda aswell. Started using it after 3 months. It was the fake blades. They do not last at all. You can feel the difference straight away. Made a complaint with Gillette and they asked me to send product details on the back of the pack. I sent a screenshot and they replied back with this,
I hope you had a great weekend. Thank you for your response and for the details and photos you have shared. The product is a parallel imported product. Parallel imported products are products that were distributed in other countries and brought in to Australia by private companies to be sold locally. These products did not go through Procter & Gamble Australia's quality control. To properly assist you on this, kindly return to the store where the product was purchased from. I know that this might be disappointing but I hope that you understand our position about this matter.
Kindest Regards,
So people be aware when buying Mach 3 blades with brazilian writing or any other language. im statying with Coles and Woolies from now on. This was very frustrating as I went back to shaver shop to complain they are fake but the girl who helped me said they get it from Gillette direct. Bullshit.
Cheers

Yep read my above post

warning: shaver shop has previously sold alleged fakes :(
You'd expect that shaver shop would be selling genuine stock.
