I admit I still want the bowl, but I doubt the cheapo in me will ever allow me to spend that much money on it....
    22 bucks extra for a wooden bowl. Thats not extreme to me.

    Like the look of the new wooden bowl. Fancy. I still heve plenty so im holding off before i buy more.

    I’d like to have one of the lavenders in the new wooden ‘bowl’, but am still working on the last brain bowl. I’m planning on going to France this spring and really want to stop by MdC or maybe stay there overnight, so maybe I wait and pick out the bowl that I want.

    It is hard to use the stuff up though! And people complain about the price (actually not bad for 200g) and shipping, but it lasts forever.

    I like the practically of being able to store and stack the original containers...

    But...

    There is nothing cooler looking than a brain bowl if you display your soap.

    I love MdC, especially the fougère, but $95 delivered is extreme.

    Joseph,

    Are you signed into a US account? They default to EU prices which include 20% VAT. If you’re signed into a non-EU account, they deduct the VAT.

    Cheers, Steve

    The 84.20 is without the VAT. Shipping seems to be high on the bowl.
