Don't think so. Is more like we, the consumers, are silly nough to buy it. But I must admit, todays Gilette blades are way better than the blades from several years ago.

Dont knock electric razors, they leave you with an appropete scruffyness which improves your overall bad ass image.

A magnum of Champagne is cheaper than ink cartridges. :yep:

Yep - old give away the razor so that you have to buy the blades trick!


But yeah - I like my electric Norelco. Has cool displays and all sorts of gadgets on it - (probably cooks toast too but I haven't figured that part out yet). And yes, it beats slopping shaving cream all over your face and using a blade any day! As for cut, if you keep good heads in the thing - replace them once every year or two - it cuts as good as the blade does as far as I can tell.

I know - you don't have to replace them - they just cut better if you do. The main effect I notice is the speed at which it cuts with newer heads. The older the heads get, the slower it cuts and it just takes more time getting that hair off your face! If you don't replace them, no big deal, but it works better if you do.

We Texans shoot the whiskers off, one by one, with our handgun. :arrgh!:

Is that because they can't afford a razor in TX, but bullets are plentiful? :p
