I was definitely surprised when they showed up. I find shipping from Europe is much faster than when I order from US.A week?!? Mine took nearly two months.
Enjoy them.
Can you please post a picture of the blade when you open the box? I am a bit concerned if the blades are genuine because this seller has very affordable prices...thnxMy ebay purchase arrived just over a week in transit from France to Australia.

In Europe where can you buy Wizamet blades at a good price?
The one on the left was provided by a friend who bought them from Razor Emporium. The one on the right is from ebay. They look exactly the same just different production date.
I’m no expert on these blades but unless razor emporium is selling fakes they look to be the same. @ivan_101 thoughts?

The 4 glue dots were introduced (again) in 2020.I just want to add, these are definitely genuine however, they are not the same blade as the 2019/2020 Wizamet.
These 4 big glue dot Wizamet commenced from 2021 and are slightly less sharp and smooth than the polsilver (discontinued in 2017/18) and the 2019/20 Wizamet.
The 4 glue dots were introduced (again) in 2020.
The new Iridiums didn't commence in 2021.
Read here. Iridium -Super (PPI) Old vs. NEW - https://www.badgerandblade.com/forum/threads/iridium-super-ppi-old-vs-new.643597/
Especially pay attention to post #37 where I have specified the period when the blades were changed. 12/2019 are the old sharper ones. 06/2020 are already the new less sharp blades.
I believe the 4 dots were reintroduced sometime in late 2020.Thanks.
So the change over must have been after May 2020 because my March 2019 and may 2020 are exactly the same, and the glue is near the middle, just like polsilver, instead of the 4 big glue dots.
I bought some there today.I know The Razor Company has them.
costcojordan on the bay has good prices on Nacets, I got 1100 for 136$ shipped...damn ebay forcing sales tax...but either way it gets you into 7 cents a blade territory for damn good bladesPerma-Sharp Super or Nacet are a lot cheaper and they are sharper. Gillette Silver Blue are not all that far off from Wizamet. Don't get hung up on unobtanium stuff would be my advice.
Apologies for not responding sooner, got buried several tabs deep.Can you post some pictures of the blades you got please?
I got mine from this seller on eBay. (They are in Europe, I think. Also, note that is the Australian eBay store.)
