I've been doing this wet shaving thing now for a couple of years. Because of weakness, lack of self denial, and mostly you guys, I have built up quite a collection of soaps. I now own enough soap to last me the rest of my days and have really enjoyed almost all of them. My question, why does a nice natural bath soap cost about $1 for about 5 ounces but the same weight in a nice artisan shaving soap trends around $15? I am now at the 10 year break even point in cost compared to when I was cartridge shaving and am wondering if I have enough time left to break even. I'm sure its a lot of supply and demand., economy of scale, scents, etc. I guess when I think about it, Arko probably only does cost about a buck in Turkey so its possible to make a good performing soap pretty cheaply. Just looking for your thoughts. As a collective of wet shavers, are we paying way too much for what we are getting?
