Mad money.
The razor is $12.
The refills are $15 for 4.
That's absurd. I still have yet to use the one they sent me. I'm going to have to try it though since everyone is giving it rave reviews.

Agree it is totally absurd.
The price is a breaking point for me.
While it provides the most comfortable shave I recall ever, I can handle a bit less comfort and save a considerable amount by using alternative blades.
Not to mention I am still confused over the whole vibrating thing.
If the price drops, I may eventually consider buying them.

When the Mach III Power came out I tried it side by side with the regular Mach III and I definitely felt the vibrating motion helped to cut the hairs more effectively. Since then, I've only purchased the "power" versions of their razors.

I totally agree though that the prices of these blades is totally out of control. I went to my local wholesale club and the 16 pack of these blades is $46. RIDICULOUS!!! That's almost $3/blade.
