wow a hundred blades a week, just one stroke with each?

I use an electric for my face and a regular razor for the neck. The razor lasts a month at least.

Ok, I'll rephrase. Each blade is good for a week or so, depending on how often I shave

Love the video and their jab at Columbia Records on their website, however I don't see that this would save me any money.

I buy the 6 bladed Gillette Proglide, usually with a coupon that puts the price around $7-$8 at Kroger. One blade will last me three weeks easily. The razor comes with 2 blades, so I'm getting about two months worth of shaves for $8. Their comparable Executive is $9/month.

The Executive is 3 blades per month, so that's $36/year instead of your $48/year.

Couldn't have used my referral link and given me a free month huh?

I actually signed up 2 days ago!

I use a blade until it feels like it's just grabbing the hair and ripping it off my face, so this wouldn't save me any money.

so this is dollar shave club and not dollars have club like i thought.

I thought this was a doll arsh ave club?

The Executive is 3 blades per month, so that's $36/year instead of your $48/year.

$9 x 12 months is $108/year
$7 x 12 months is $84/year

Now, of course if I use the number of blades instead, then I get

$108/36 blades = $3/blade
$84/24 = $3.50/blade

So, yes, on a per blade basis it is slightly better. You are correct, but still not enough of a difference for me to worry about it.

I thought it was an ad for the Do Llarsh Avenue Club?

Saw the the other day too and it's not a bad idea at all. You can also get new blades/razors for free/cheap if you keep up with the grocery threads at slickdeals or use the CVS/Walgreens/Rite Aid store buck deals.

Can't decide between entry and mid tier. It's like a 2.80 dollar difference after s&h + taxes are considered. Two blade simple or a little more fancy? HALP ME DECIDE!

 

[Phoenix86]

2 blades is enough, if you want lube apply your own.

If you want the head to tilt, move your wrist!

The amount of shavefail in this thread make my beard itch.

The commercial was amazing.

 

[manlymatt83]

Love how they're reading the lean startup book in the video.

You randomly saw the video on Youtube rather than seeing it on a news/gadget site? What are the chances? I find this hard to believe.

Not sure where OP saw it, but I saw it on Reddit.

 

[bfdd]

I signed up. Going to try their entry level razor out, if I find it lacking I'll jump to the mid tier.

100% agreed. It's almost impossible to get an electric that can do a good job for long enough to make it a reasonable purchase.

Anyone have any feedback from this yet? Was thinking of trying it... what did you get, what did you use before, and how do they compare?
