I am new here and want to say hello to my fellow Brothers-in-Baldness!  I got sick of paying so much money for silly Fusion and Mach 3 blades and I happened to see this M5 razor at my local BJ's.  Came with the razor and 16 blades for 15 bucks....

Anyone in here have any experience with it?  I got tired of paying for the Gillette name...

Looking forward to some responses!

BaldGreek,

I have never used the M5, but I am with you on what a rip off the Gillette replacement razors are. I use one on my face and always buy a brand new Gillette razor instead of repalcement blades.

ycartt:
The replacement cartridges are apparently where the manufacturers get their money.  Like buying a printer, get it cheap but the replacement ink will cost you.  I found the M5 at Walmart for like $6.99 and it came with two blades.  The replacement pack I think was like $6 or $7 as well. 

TheBaldGreek:
Yeah, my buddy recommended me to try one, and for $16 bucks for 16 blades and the razor, I couldn't pass up!  I got so sick of the Fusion blade ripoffs I ended up trying the Gillette disposable razors and realized just how crappy the longevity of those blades were.
