Mail called today a NOS vintage Old Spice mug shaving soap, I’ve been chasing this for nearly four years.

Very very nice!
(Not) keen to hear how B14 goes, as well as Løthur!
 
Mail call from TOTC. Canada to Australia in 35 days (technically, Canada to US to Australia. Not sure why there isn't a direct shipping route). GF II is nothing like the original, unfortunately. Also my first SV (on sale, so why not?).

That's strange, unless there are no direct flights out of Canada.

I've ordered stuff from Italian Barber in Canada and have been asked if I rather it go through the States. I've always just waited until a direct flight is available. It then flies into Melbourne, then Sydney then into Newcastle.

I tend to avoid buying out of Canada as each time a item has taken nearly 2 months to arrive... :unsure:

I send from TOTC to Planet Express and even that can take 3 weeks. Gives plenty of time to fill the order with other goodies from US market
 
The good thing about Canada is that they do surface mail and I've received perfumes and aftershaves from Canadian suppliers on a few occasions. It does takes months but ...

Not sure if that is still possible as the Canada Post website talks about 'Perfume and shaving lotion' as a 'Flammable Liquid'. Not sure how flammable lotions are - but clear hint to not have any mention of 'shaving' on the box either!

That's why I prefer my order not to go through the US. I've never had a problem getting alcohol based products through Canada Post and Italian Barber are happy to send them.
