I've used this seller twice in the last 8 or 9 days, he's very good. Default postage is second class but I've always recieved them the next day. And yes, if you buy a couple of lots he puts them together and discounts postage. I've had 150 of each blade, great blades although the green isn't quite as sharp as the yellow IMO. It's still a perfectly comfortable work blade.

It's a tempting price, so should I get green or yellow?

Yellow,
I have greens sent in error.
I dont like them. Two shaves is their limit.

But they're still not a bad blade by any standard... just not quite as good as the yellow. For me at least, the yellow are the sharper blade.

The Russian Greens (Super Stainless, not the PermaSharp) get me a more decent shave with less chance of irritation.

Just bought these to try them out as i now feel Derby's are irritating my chops.
That will be the 200 Derby's i bought last week put somewhere in the back of the cupboard. Think i may sell or swap them :mrgreen:

Thing is with Derbies is the Quality control has been questioned, so reportedly you might get a good shave with one blade, then a poorer one with the next. Can't say I've noticed, I thought they were okay, but I only used one pack.
Once I had some 7 o'clock yellows I did notice a marked improvement in sharpness alone... see how you get on.
