The Great Blade Exchange 2013

[Toothpick]

The Great Blade Exchange is officially open for exchanges!

Before you request an exchange, please read post #502

Here's how it works.

1. Browse the stock list and select blades you want to try in pairs. The blades you are sending must also be in pairs.
2. Post your selection in this thread only. Your request can be for as many different blades as you wish provided you are sending the same amount of different blades.

Here is an example of a simple exchange request:
I would like to try
2 Derby
2 Feathers
2 Lord
In exchange for:
2 Gillette Blacks
2 Big Ben
2 Berkeley​

3. I will review your selections and send you a PM detailing your request such as: blade availability and providing you with the blade bank address.
4. YOU will be responsible for shipping both ways. This means with your blades you are exchanging you will have to send a self addressed stamped envelope with enough postage for the requested blades to be sent back to you.
5. Throw yourself a party and shave with new blades!!!

Please also read these finer details:

Donations are always accepted. This is how we are able to provide a vast amount of blades to begin with.
There is a stock limit of 20 for each blade. Keep this in mind for the blades you are sending.
TGBE will not be used to make a sample pack. Such as "i'll send you 10 Feathers for 2 Derby, 2 Lord, 2 Big Ben..ect..."
Blades must be new and in their original factory wrapper.
You are welcome to post reviews of blades here and most importantly let's have some fun!

It is a Google doc for now. Until I can figure out a simpler way to post the list. If you have problems viewing it let me know, but it should pop up as a webpage.

I would prefer you send 2 different blades rather than an over quantity of one brand.

Your request can be for as many different blades as you wish provided you are sending the same amount of different blades.​

hey where did you purchase those voskhold blades?

I believe they were included with my first super speed I bought off of B/S/T. Sorry not much help as I can't seem to recall who sold me the superspeed at the moment. I'll check some older posts from when I first joined and I'll PM you if I can find it!
