For future reference, Priority shipping boxes are free at the PO, printing postage online is always cheaper and very simple to do, and anything over 1.5-2 pounds is cheaper going flat rate when shipping outside your postal zone.
I cant seem the flat rate box ever fit the stuff I am shipping though Might need to pick some up anyways. The bubble mailers have been fairly cheap though and i have learned to get ALOT in those things!
There are several size flat rate boxes. I just shipped a bunch of stuff to a friend today in a flat rate box. Contained 3 T&H tubs, 10 aftershave samples, 3 colognes, and some other stuff. I didn't even have to weigh it.
Hmmmm...Is this stuff significantly different from the current stuff? The Japanese site has it for half the price of the new--not the huge discount like Y'All, but still cheap. Worth it?
Word on the street is they shave the same or nearly so. Difference is scent. I picked up a sampler of the Maca Root while at TBS. I like the smell, kind of fresh and soapy is how I'd put it. Haven't shaved it yet. As for the postage, I mail stuff so infrequently and when I do it's usually in a bubble mailer which apparently ship significantly cheaper. And printing postage online I guess that means you need some sort of special paper stock right? And a scale? And ink in your printer (kids)!!!
Remember kids, I have four tubs available just in case. Let me know, and I will get them in the mail. Also, let me know if you want your creams mentholated, as I can arrange that too.
The post early about the lady selling them on ebay for $18......well she has sold 3 so far. Helluva profit huh?
Shawn, you gotta realize though that alot of folks have to travel hundreds of miles to find a TBS store. FOr them, it is worth just paying the extra $$ to get it online. Hell, I might hold on to the extra tubs I have and do the same!!! :happy102 Not!!! Mine will go to someone on TSD, at my cost, or I will just keep them.
This is about how I felt. I briefly considered holding them for a year or so and then trying to sell them on the bay or something, but decided it's better to share the happiness here instead. It's a great cream that shaves awesome. I gotta hand it to TBS; they have a winner there. I still have three tubs btw if anybody else is interested.
I have and enjoy both Rolls. The menthol blast is a refreshing and nice change on occasion. I don't want it everyday, but once a week will do.
SHep, I added some menthol crystals to one of my tubs of TBS cream. Amazingly enough, it seems to make the shaves even better!! Maybe it is the fact that the menthol reaction actually helps to soften the beard and open your pores, allowing for a closer shave.
You can get menthols crystals online for very cheap. I got mine in a trade with Rodd, but you can get them about anywhere online. Rodd or JoAnna would know a good place to get them too. Here is a link for a vendor on ebay. It is for 4oz of crystals, which would take a lifetime to go through!! http://cgi.ebay.com/MENTHOL-CRYSTAL...ryZ41269QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
So what do you do? Crush them into a powder, sprinkle in and stir/mix? How many would you use for a 5 oz tub of cream?
