Boots Dartmouth, Devon. RRP 34.99, had a £15 clearance sticker but came up as £9.99 at the till. This has got rave reviews on amazon and I've used it and it's brilliant.

Nice find, there have been a couple of great deals direct from Philips but this price smokes them.
Wonder if the cost of replacement blades is putting people off. They're supposed to last a while though.

Blades meant to last 4 months based on 2 shaves a week. replacement blades are about £6.50 on eBay.

Cheapest I have seen on eBay is £10 each inc. postage. Spending 30 quid + for a year's blades is putting me right off :-(
it was probably a return, they do not stock, so it was reduced to clear, and they forgot there was a 1/3rd off as well, will not be found in all Boots, its just a lucky find for 'sossige'

Just indicative of the end prices for auctions, rather than buy it now..

Merkur 34C Heavy Duty Classic Double Edge Safety Razor, and feather blades or similar, you'll never look back imo

Explain how you trim a beard to say 1.5mm with one of them?

To be fair, that's a completely different market from this (or electric shavers, or Gillette so-many-blades heads). I'm sure a "traditional" razor gives a closer/cleaner/etc. shave, but if I used one with the amount of effort I want to put into shaving in the morning, I'd end up in hospital. I tried getting the whole outfit, nice badger brush with a little bowl of fancy soap so I can spend time swirling it around and making lather, but it wasn't for me. I don't think I'm alone in saying that I don't shave because I enjoy it, I do it because I'm expected to vaguely cut off enough every morning that nobody thinks I slept in these clothes.

Hope this deal is not store specific. Last I saw the one blade pack it was £12

I bloody well love my OneBlade. Cheaper to run than a Gillette I believe!

Excellent price. Wife bought me one with the upgraded battery and I've used it daily and only had to charge twice fully since May!
I just lightly trim daily rather than full shave. Will need a new blade soon I think as it takes slightly longer than with new to get the same excellent results.
