    I don't blame you. I can't remember if my shipping was free or not but I don't think it was. It was still cheaper than here in the states.

    Cool Tc. I hope that is a standing offer but I don't remember it when I ordered mine. I have enough for now though plus other brands as well.

    Yeah, I decided to go for it based on the price and free shipping suggestion, but they want €22 for 3 jars or €24 for 2 jars for shipping.

    Moonshae, whatever you buy, it is still cheaper than the one here in the states. I can understand one wanting to make money & i guess their store rental comes into play but for people like us, the better deal is always tops.

    Oh, no doubt! I suspect that the U.S. retailer isn't changing their prices as the euro:dollar values change, and their prices reflect a stronger euro.

    I have found that buying from the manufacturers in other countries is usually cheaper. Also I have tried to look up euros to usd on Google & it doesn't make sense. It usually comes out cheaper buying directly from the manufacturer & the euros is usually different. I haven't been able to figure that one out yet.

    Just looked it up and the EURO is worth slightly more than the USD. Looks like 1 EURO is worth about $1.10 US.

    I pulled the trigger, with the exchange rate of €1=$1.10, my mix of 3 jars with shipping came to $141 and change. So buy two, get one free vs the U.S. retailer. The biggest expense for shipping is the first jar, so it makes sense to buy a few, as the increase is not much for each additional jar.

    Still, $140 for 3 jars of soap, I hope this lives up to its reputation!

    Most banks charge a currency conversion fee, and so the exchange rate isn't as good as how the currencies are actually trading.
