Thread: For MdC Fans...

This top tier shave soap is now available through Top of the Chain in Canada. He has a limited inventory, but it’s nice to know I don’t have to pay import duties and wait forever when I order it from France or the U.S.

Here’s the link:

Thanks.
Still, C$89.99 for for 200g shaving soap is a bit steep, isn’t it?

A few months ago, I was ready to re-order, but when I noticed MdC prices and - most of all - shipping costs for an order that I wanted to have sent to a hotel in the EU, I changed my mind and went with Meissner Tremonia instead.
MdC is a good soap without doubt, but is it good enough to justify C$89.99 plus tax?

NOPE......

I dunno....The Canadian dollar and the duties aside, I would buy it at that price.
Mine has lasted years and years and still more than half there..

What a value!

Gotta have it anyway?

ive never paid more than 60$ with shipping a jar. and by the way M&T is tthe same price there partner,, its a smaller jar

FYI current exchange rates make that about $68 US including shipping.

If you’re in the EU you’ll be paying VAT, 17% I believe, which will more than offset international shipping on a medium to large order. And if you do a larger order the international shipping is discounted at least some.

Gents. Check this site out. Free shipping from UK. Prices are with VAT but once you put your US address they take it out. Fougere was 37GBP (47USD shipped). I think that's a pretty good deal. Mine is on it's way to Minnesota.

Not sure where you got the “more than offset” from.

Having done an actual comparison, the costs for my purchase incl. shipping would have been:
- to a destination in Europe: €112.04 incl. the 20% (not 17% as you stated) French VAT applicable within the EU,
- to British Columbia: €119.97,
- to Washington State: €118.26.

The last two figures do not include applicable import duties or processing fees for Customs.

I figure it is like sitting and talking about the price of gasoline....
Either way, you got to buy it.
Get your best deal. Conserve it, enjoy it. Take a little trip.
YMMV
