    Your right about that, never heard of a pink Williams before. Maybe a face soap of some sort got put in the box instead.

    I have recently seen old pucks of (modern) Williams in various shades of orange, usually in shops that probably have very little turnover of this product. Age related I'd say.

    And I was hoping it was a new contest by Williams Wonka, and the colored soaps were the "Golden Tickets" for the wetshavers of the world. :happy102

    I doubt it is a typo. Look at it in context of his post.

    LOL no I meant Pink...... And I could of swore it was a williams puck, I blame too many beers between Yesterday and February........

    I could of gotten it completely wrong, but I doubt it the puck was pink and it was the same size as the williams puck, maybe I didn't buy williams at the same time I thought I had, but I only have the 4 boxes I brought today.

    And maybe I am just bat$H!+ crazy :signs140

    Thanks though for helping may clear out some misconceptions I apparently had :-p

    I have seen and bought Williams

    that are both pure white and pinkish orange in color. I have yet to use any of the pinkish orange ones. (Guess I have been stocking up for the shave apocolypse :)

    Knowing a little bit about manufacturing automation, I have thought that the Orange Williams bars were the result of a run of different raw material batches.

    I would think Williams would buy their raw materials from different companies, based on bids and contracts, always looking for the best prices.

    I am sure that their Quality Assurance department makes sure that the important characteristics of the raw materials meets their standards for use in the batch.

    Let us know if you see any major difference in the way the product performs. I will do the same, but it may take me awhile...

    I am currently using a superb Canatlope scented soap from TSD, a very nice Sandalwood from Ginger's Garden and a VDH puck in my soap rotation.

    The Williams pucks that I have are imprinted with "Williams shaving soap" and a mug.

    The most recent (and wretched) formulation of Williams dates to sometime in 2005 when Combe bought the company. :cool:

    I take offence to that :D. I love me some modern Williams.


    VDH is also a great soap which you originally had. I like the scent of VDH.
