Recently bought a couple of hundred Polsilver and ordered another lot from a Bulgarian ebay seller and they are genuine so please don't "Tar all with the same brush please" as to the fakes I looked at the wrapper on the Chinese blade I got with the "cheapo " Razor I bought as a reintroduction to wet shaving and the wrapper is just like the fake Polsilver except small folds being outside and no glue.
Fake PolSilver Super Iridiums?

I have ordered from DCC's site, and the blades were absolutely the real deal. You can order with confidence.
I'm pretty sure it's Bulgaria. Follow the link I posted and I'm sure it will tell you.
My blades were shipped from Bulgaria.
I see claims of fake blades everywhere but what I want to know is 'How they shave?'. Bold font, normal font, 2 spots of goo, 4 spots of goo, missing words....it mean nothing, all these details could be production changes for all I know. I want someone who claim to have a FAKE to shave with it and give us a full report. Also if someone could compare the edges with an Electron Microscope, that would be even better.
Or someone who has the fakes can send a blade to the guys doing the electron microscope images (with their approval, of course)!!
In any case, DCC / polsilver-blades.com has sent me the real deal three times out of three.
DCC is a gentleman and will even send you tracking information that you can follow on Bulgarian post till it gets into USA system.
I bought 100-pack fro 13$ from a random eBay seller and they seem to be original.
Is it shipping included?
If it is than that's the best deal I've seen. But I doubt, maybe there is shipping charge on top....Oh,
Wait! you're in Belarus, doesn't count, sorry!

It doesn't matter from Belarus or from Canada we are. There are tonns of cheap PSIs with "free international shipping" from Bulgaria (but not from Asia region) on eBay at the moment. The sellers change their prices every day 13..16USD and it is not a problem to catch the cheapest.
And I'm pretty sure they are genuine.
And I'm pretty sure they are genuine.
I bought 200 for $28 a few days ago from a Bulgarian seller as well. Prices vary wildly from as low as $11-20 per 100 pack. Just check ebay daily and you will be able to snag a good deal.

Good night from Spain!
In 2013 a fellow from German forum bought fake Polsilver Super Iridium blades, I saw pics and counterfeiting was good but there were details that did not match the genuine.
I had into my hands fake Astra blades at that time, they looked horrible, I tried to shave with one of them and they hardly shaved,
they scraped the face, it was totally imposible to get a shave finally.
I´m absolutely sure Gillette doesn´t commercialise blades with absence of some printed letters absence of glue dots or any irregularities.
