I don't really care about all the special features or anything, my main concern is that I dont necessarily have to shave every day, nor do i like to. When i had an electric a few years back, if I had any type of longer stubble at all, It was a major pain to geta clean shave. Which is why i like the blades.

I've thought about going to the wet/dry electric. Only problem is that it usually takes me 15-20 minutes to get a decent shave with an electric, which is too long.

I don't think it's a conspiracy. I heard that Gillette is suing Schick claiming the Quattro is copyright infringement of their Mach 3. I haven't been following the case, so maybe there's movement with the litigation. As for Wal-Mart, I don't think the following is what is going on with Schick, but Wal-Mart has been known to delist SKUs punitively for a few weeks or so, if a manufacturer is being particularly intransigent in Wal-mart's eyes... |

I found this thread since I was thinking about buying an electric. Anyway, 10 months have passed, and I still can't think of a product that doesn't come down in price when something "better" is introduced. Answer? |

Gillette knows what it is doing. Why would they push new products into the market and cut the profitability of it's old products if consumers are still going to pay that price?

Customers still pay the price because that's the price Gillette sets. When a new TV, stereo, DVD, George Foreman grill, vacuum, etc comes out, the older models /editions drop in price. For some reason, this typical economic phenomenon doesn't reach razor blades. As for cars...when the 2007 editions of cars are about to hit the dealers' lots, and they still have plenty of 06's in stock, they'll slash prices to clear the room, even if it results in selling below cost.
