Hello everyone,
I joined this forum literally just today and people have already been so helpful that I'm moved to offer a PIF. I had a question in the thread linked below about a box of blades I had just bought. I thought I was ordering Personna Lab Blues, but what I got turned out to be German-made Personna/Edgewell blades (like Israeli Reds, but manufactured in Germany, I learned in the thread):

The included photos show my confusion... the listing showed "Made in USA" so I thought these were the lab blues, but this must have been an error. I tried one so I can't return them, and I'd rather PIF the remaining 99 than let them collect dust in my closet.
The responses in that thread were super helpful and I encourage anyone confused about the various Personna blades to check them out—I certainly learned a lot. I tried one of these and they don't really work well for me (confirmed they seem like the Israeli-made Reds I had once tried from a sample pack) so I can offer this box of 99 blades to anyone who likes the German/Israeli Reds. I'll pick a recipient tomorrow (2/4) at Noon EST and will pay postage within the US. The selection will be random, but I'll double-enter the members who were so patient and gracious in answering my questions if they choose to participate.

Personna Lab Blues - Once again, are these real?
Here's my understanding so far. With a little creative idea on why it was done: Lab blue and med prep were and are made in USA. No change there besides packaging. Blue "crystal" IP are and were made in Israel no change Red IP were only made in Israel. Personna was going to buy "Harry's" so...
