Why don't you order it from Colonial Drug in Cambridge, MA?

Because then I would not know which of those two German vendors was less oppressive with the shipping.
Hmm. I don't understand it, but I respect it.
why not just go far enough on each website to select shipping? I guarantee that you will not pay before you select shipping. Then you will know the exact amount.
FYI...33.00 Euros to ship to Buffalo, NY. from Thedifferentscent.com

For shippling alone? That's about the price of 2.5 oz. of Knize Ten from Colonial Drug. Just sayin'.
I have ordered from both and either is terrible. I think Manufactum is 20 EUR a package plus a few Euros per pound. I believe the Different Scent is 30 EUR but could be mistaken.
Be forewarned that liquids, creams and gels from overseas can be subjected to seemingly interminable delays at customs. I have an order from Germany has been in customs for three months! While I understand the need to protect the country, three months and counting seems a little unreasonable to me.

My question is: why order from Germany when it is readily available here??
I think Colonial charged my something like $7 for a cologne shipped ground.
When I bought that monster bottle K10 it was more, but still under $25 and was here within two days.

Houston...we have comprehension!!! Somebody actually answered the question asked.
Much obliged, Henry.
why not order a bottle from each ... maybe a bottle of aftershave from one and EdT from the other ... and you can tell US which is slightly less oppressive.
The Different Scent is a joy to order from! they pre-wrap the individual package which helps it get through customs... alcohol and all.
i haven't ordered from Manufactum, but D.S. would get my vote!

I hope nobody from Customs is reading this.
The quote I got from Manufactum on a bottle of Alt Innsbruck was nearly $30 on shipping alone. Furthermore because my O.C.D. dictates to me I must have the original bottle, not a decant, I still have yet to try it!
