Group-buy: Martin de Candre - *Update See Post 74*

**nole1** · 03-10-2011, 12:30 PM

Greetings Gent's! With mod approval, I have put together a small group-buy for the large jars of infamous Martin de Candre shaving soap.

And you thought your SSAD was under control

I'm looking for interest in purchasing a total of 12 jars (I will be buying 1 so I need 11 more). They will be the 170g jars in either scented or unscented, you will specify your preference.

All jars are spoken for

The cost per jar will be $54.00 Shipped Priority Mail CONUS and paid via PayPal ONLY. If you wish to add insurance since they are glass jars, you would be responsible for the difference. Once the jars get to the states and I have them all packaged up, I will request payment and once it is received I will ship out.

I would like to keep this at 1 jar per person so more have a chance to try the soap, but will open it up to multiples if there isn't enough interest.

PM me if you are interested in participating (with your preference of scented/unscented) or if have any questions. Once I have the 11 jars fulfilled, I will place the order.

Take Care,

PM sent. The scent, if I remember correctly, is a subtle lavender and mint.

Yes it is. This quote is from MdC's site:

The perfume is a fresh blend of natural essential oils (Benson, Rosemary, lavender, mint) is added at the end of the saponification.

I'm jealous of you guys. I have a jar already and I want another one!

It's that good. Believe the hype.

Just what I need, another soap!

**DarthAWM** · 03-10-2011, 01:25 PM

Ok, I'm curious.

Can some one tell me why I need to buy this soap?

**Evbo** · 03-10-2011, 01:28 PM

**Bestarrkin** · 03-10-2011, 01:28 PM

It's a shaving soap you don't have.

OK, you need a real reason? It's an excellent shaving soap you don't have.

OK, OK, you need me to apply rational force? You're in the wrong place, friend.

**4myshave** · 03-10-2011, 01:47 PM

Yes, count me in too,

I'll be in France in 2 weeks and will be looking for MdC, although I'm not so sure I'll locate it. This seems like a possible option. ill you let us know id =f this is a go - and when?

Actually, I was looking for a little history of the manufaturer or the greatness behind the soap. I know there is no real logic behind a $54 jar of soap(for perspective I did just drop $100 on Kampfe Bros. razor, so logic ain't my strong suit

) Just want to know what makes this one special.

Talk about crappy luck on my part!!! I just ordered one a week ago...

if you haven't already, read the reviews... esp. Marco's.

He could sell sneakers to an earthworm, that one.

You live in Odessa, anything from France will brighten your day, hahaha...

Telling someone you have a jar of Martin de Candre on the shelf is like saying you have a Ferrari in the garage.

As far as I know other than the location where it is made the only other spot is the shop in Paris.
