I've bought three 100-packs of blades and tried about five of each, leaving me with an incomplete pack of a bunch of blades. I'd like to sell them (at cost even), but I don't want to go to the hassle of selling them piece by piece in terms of the individual 5/10 packs. I don't really want to exchange them, because I found the blades I need and am set for blades for a long time. Does anyone have suggestions what I can do to try to recoup some of the cost of buying these packs?
what to do with three packs of 95 new unwanted blades?

Maybe try selling locally. Hopefully you town has other wet shavers. Or post them on BST.
Sell on the BST forum.
BST or PIF
I'll echo the others. BST or PIF them. You never know what you'll find on BST and others feel the same way.
I agree with the BST and PIF suggestions, but have you considered a trade? Since you already have a supply of blades you like, you may want to offer a trade for something else of equal value.
Good luck with whatever you decide to do. Be well and stay safe...

If you aren’t going to use them, a PIF would be a nice way to find them a home.
As a point of reference, a 100 pack of Russian PPI blades (GSB, Nacet, Astra SS, Polsilver, etc) will fit in a standard first class envelope and can easily be sent with 3 stamps. I did not even need to go past my mailbox to send them across the country.
It may be nice to receive a PIF, but there is a good feeling when sending a PIF.

If you would consider donating a few 5 packs to B & B's Great Blade Exchange, you could then sell or pif the remainder. Here's a link to it:

You should offer them for the Sue Moore Auction! It will benefit a great cause and you can probably deduct it from your taxes if you itemize!

On the lookout for a purse
Donate a few to the Great Blade Exchange and BST or PIF the rest or see if someone will trade what you like for what you have.
The Saint Sue Auction is also a great choice, lots of options.

Trade them for something you would rather have, if possible. There is the Buy Sell Trade forum here where you can post an offer. PIF a few. Exchange or donate some using the Great Blade Exchange.
