Mike's hand made soaps from Brooklyn.

Sorry to hear that. Can you salvage what's left into a new container? Would be a shame if it were completely wasted.

All of the WSP Rustic soaps I purchased came in a bubble envelope, but they were further wrapped by layers of extra bubble wrap. All arrived in perfect condition.

I've ordered Mike's several times and at least one tin comes dented every time. The soap has been unaffected.

 

[Cksnffr]

Some shops charge extra for a dino bite.

 

[penned]

My single tin arrived dented and was shipped in a padded envelope.

 

[big70tom]

Yup. Exactly here. Seems strange that a lot of them have damage.

 

[eyebright]

Tins are notoriously fragile - I don't use them for soap but I use smaller ones for other products. Even shipped from the suppliers in boxes, a few always seem to arrive bent or dinged.

I pried the lid off, and popped the can edge out and used the sosp, and it's the best I've used. Product wise I truly am impressed. I recently ordered a B&M soap, so unless it's better, I'll probably stick with Mikes exclusively. As for the way it's shipped and the customer service, I'm going to just not say anything. No matter what though, I can't say enough about the quality of the soap

Personally, I think B&M is better, but Mike's is a really good soap as well.

Just FYI - if you are going to order from Mike's a lot, expect dented tins almost every time. If that is a big deal, you can order the soap bars and provide your own containers.

 

[big70tom]

Yeah, I know it sounds petty but I don't really want damaged csns. This one was more than bent. Maybe B&M will be better, and this problem will be solved. If it's not, maybe if I buy 5 at a time Mikes we old ship in a box....

With all the drama surrounding certain soapmaker(s) these days, Mike is steady as she goes. Very accommodating as well, once you reach him.

 

[tlentz]

I think that's a given on the tins. I'm sure if the soap wasn't in them we could crush them in our bare hands while looking exceptionally manly to our wives.

 

[big70tom]

I guess I'm out of the loop because I've not heard of any artisan drama. In fact everyone I've ordered has been prompt and easy

 

[Mandina]

Just contact him. I'm sure he'll take care of it.

 

[big70tom]

You'd think. But it's a great soap, no doubt

 

[Warpiper]

Um, and I thought it was only my local postal service that destroyed boxes and packages. The last 4 out of 5 packages have been crushed or ripped apart. One of them was delivered in a big zip lock bag with a sticky note inside saying "Sorry". Mike's came in intact fortunately.
