Monokuro Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I've never been able to find these anywhere in Thailand so I get all mine from Taiwan when I go back there. If you have no luck and can wait a week, my GF is coming over next Wednesday and I could get her to bring some if you want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 (edited) These have never been for sale in Thailand, anywhere in Thailand. You need to import. Its pretty crazy too. They are a great product and would sell really well in expat areas. Why doesn't Villa market import them? Not their usual line, but why not?

billd766 Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I bought mine in New Zealand when I was working there and in my last 3 months I was sending parcels back home to Thailand including the blades. I now have about 2 years worth of stock and a mate over there who can buy and post them for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 It may also be that Gillette for some weird marketing reason does not WANT them to be sold in Thailand, and even if a place like Boots ordered them, they may not be interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I brought them back from the UK , 16 quid for a pack of 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xonax Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Unfortunately Mach III Turbo is the best you can get in Thiland. Anyway I quickly stopped to use the vibrations in my Fusion razor because its crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob4you Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 I use the vibration razor with the Turbo blades, shave dry using powder, blades last long and close comfortable shave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErikD Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 If it is the one with the 5 blades then I have seen them in Friendship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 If it is the one with the 5 blades then I have seen them in Friendship. If Friendship Pattaya has them, I won't shave for a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathanpattaya Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 I have never seen them anywhere in Thailand either. A friend brings replacement blades from the US. I am surprised that Gillette still don't market this razor in Thailand as it has been available elsewhere since 2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nitnoymoy Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 I ordered blades via ebay uk from china posted direct to thailand adress, if its any help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGW Posted March 23, 2010 Author Share Posted March 23, 2010 (edited) I ordered blades via ebay uk from china posted direct to thailand adress, if its any help I always have a problem getting anything posted to Thailand, invariably customs seem to get involved and want what is usually a ridiculous amount of duty, plus the time it takes to get everything sorted, not worth it for me, maybe others have more luck!

keemapoot Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 I also had a huge supply of blades brought over from the states by a friend. I've never seen them for sale anywhere in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I believe the Gillette Mach 3 Turbo is widely available here. Perhaps Gillette people think that Thais aren't hirsute enough to require the nuclear option, Fusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keemapoot Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Yeah, I use the Fusion every day, but honestly, I also agree it's a lot of hype. The "vibration" thing is just a psychological trick to divert your mind away from unpleasant tugging feeling. The 4 blades are too much really, and can get clogged. To be truthful, I prefer the disposable gillette razors.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jori Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 The 3 blade razors (Carrefore own brand are rubbish) Gillette are good ,but the 5 bladed ones were superb.Boots shaving gel 99 Baht is good value though,upto half the price of others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintofsilence Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Fusion is the best razor I have ever used , they do cost more but the blades last a lot longer . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never seen any "Hype" about them as live in Thailand, but believe they are the best blade on the market............... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
