marcop1 Posted May 23, 2019 at 07:23 AM Report Posted May 23, 2019 at 07:23 AM Is it easy to find blades for my Gillette razor and if so would it be available in most stores? 1 Quote
DavyJonesLocker Posted May 23, 2019 at 11:15 AM Report Posted May 23, 2019 at 11:15 AM Taobao, tmall jingdong etc would be a good place to stay rather than running around the place trying to find them. Cheaper too I'd imagine. Pretty widespread here in Beijing but there are so many different fitting for those damm razor's it's hard to know which one is the right one. 2 Quote

That is, I wouldn't expect a Gillette blade sold in China that looks identical to one sold elsewhere to necessarily perform just as well. There's a reason so many Mainlanders like to shop in Hong Kong. 1 1 Quote
ouyangjun Posted May 26, 2019 at 02:06 AM Report Posted May 26, 2019 at 02:06 AM Yes. Just go to a foreign grocery store and you’ll find them. I used to live in Shekou, Shenzhen. Silver Palate on Wanghai Lu would have. The grocery store Ole near Sea World would have them. Lots of places, pretty easy to find. 1 Quote
ChTTay Posted May 26, 2019 at 05:22 AM Report Posted May 26, 2019 at 05:22 AM That’s true. The Gillette blades I’ve got in a Chinese supermarket feel inferior. Also, I am not that hairy so a blade usually lasts a while but with those one they’re blunted quickly. 1 Quote
