There is a guy on Reddit in Sweden I believe. I bought a ton of Kai and Bolzano blades from him about a month ago. The shipping was a bit slow but everything arrived in good order and very aggressively priced.
I couldn't pass up the offer.
The Bolzano blades are outstanding too. I hadn't used one in over a year due to their price everywhere else. I am using one this week and am looking forward to seeing how it holds up in the stamina department. If it makes it to Saturday like my regular favorites I'll be in for more.
Sweden is not a cheap country, by any means (lived there for a while), but they know how to do business, that’s for sure.
Not to derail the thread, but I find Bolzano blades to be some of the best (especially because you can easily get 6–10 shaves from each blade), but they are usually quite expensive. A deal on any “unusual” blades is always attractive, which would then probably make it even more important to scrutinize said deal very closely before byuing.
Whenever I go to shave, I assume there’s someone else on the planet shaving, so I say “I’m gonna go shave, too.”

Yeah there is a guy on reddit that I buy Polsilvers from for .80 a pack. I've just never bought blades off of ebay, but see them all over the place.

This is the site. I bought when there was a sale on but the prices are not bad. The website is a complicated hodgepodge so click around. The prices for singles are different than the prices for multiple packs on another page of the same website.
Anyway. Yeah, eBay can be dicey for sure but as much as I dislike them PayPal has your back as a buyer most everywhere on the internet. If you use it with a credit card that also has a buyer protection program that's another level of service and added security too. A credit card through PayPal will also insulate you better from fraud than using a debit card or linking direct to a bank account. If you have your account compromised and it's directly from the bank you're going to have a huge headache. If it happens and goes to a credit card you have a wall to mitigate the immediate pain while the issue is resolved.

I don't think that price is too good to be true a lot of blades are under 10 bucks shipped for 100.

Usually sellers value their feedback and give in.
