Yes, backwards turn of the phrase on my part, knew what you meant. Thanks for the link.

I don't know if you've had it long enough to tell, but how do MDC and the others you mention compare in terms of its rate of use? I've been using my MDC for most of my shaves over the last month and I've hardly put a dent in it. So now I'm curious as to whether part of the price is just from the fact that it lasts so damn long.
That just might possibly the equalizer for me and MdC but I won't be able to tell as I use a large rotation of different soaps and creams. Yea, definitely if you amortize the cost over a longer period of time/number of uses that would definitely be a plus for MdC over others. Then again everyone uses consumables at a different rate so that is still a subjective observation and not one that is quantifiable. It would have to be a controlled lab experiment.

This is very cruel.
Every time I'm able to suppress my urge to buy MDC, another thread about the soap comes to life...
New shipment just landed - he has Fougere but might not be up yet !!
I am currently waiting for my package to turn up from France. I ordered both the soaps after reading all the different threads I couldn't resist the urge to hit the button. Like most of you I use MWF and at first I have to admit I wasn't impressed but now it's growing on me. I also use the Italian heavy hitter Proraso but currently my favour is Col Conk Bay Rum. I have to say can't wait for the postman to turn up =)
