The whole thing is just an advertising stunt, someone else has the manufacturing and logistics of actually making and shipping the product. If it tanks, it's only cost a few commercials. I estimate that they have spent less than 100k on the whole media blitz. And the reported pre-order numbers indicate they've already seen $2,000,000 come in.

It wreaks for the usual (((obvious))) reasons, but I bet we will find somebody playing both sides on this one.

No idea who you are talking about (I block all media advertisements in my life.)

But, I'm guessing there is no great conspiracy. Razors (of all types) are easy to make and have very little product differentiation. At the end of the day, the razor business is about marketing and brand awareness.

If I wanted to go into the razor business:

  1. Hire a top notch marketing team. $1M (this will be your largest spend)
  2. Have an edge (pun intended) where you are 'unique' and different in the market. Spend advertising dollars $250K.
  3. Go to China and get one of the many razor mfg cos to make them for you. They will use the packaging you designed. Purchase $100K in product.
  4. Setup a warehouse in the US for distribution. $100K.

Here is a start: https://www.alibaba.com/trade/search?fsb=y&IndexArea=product_en&CatId=&SearchText=razors

... dozens of companies that are selling razors of all types. You find a mfg you can work with and you are all set.

This is what Jews are good at, the constant haggling with people, trying to get them to do what you want them to do so that you can turn a profit. Most of us hate it, but Jews live for it. I suppose, in this sense, they fulfil a need in society.
