Why so expensive?.

Does anybody know why these blades are so expensive?.

I believe they are current production and not new old stock.

They look like a newer production version of the legendary Swedes (the blister cardboard is the same but the small cardboard box looks like the modern Gillette Bleues, which aren't as good, some say, as the older ones in the plastic dispensers. Perhaps these prices are trading on former glory? Just speculation
