Chris from CBL emailed me yesterday because someone from france ordered from him yesterday.. Also you know the general cost because Chris gave me the general cost of shipping to france and I posted it on here for you to see the other day....No, and I don't think I would since shipping costs must be high to reach France (if they deliver internationally).
Why this question?
@jaro1069
Alum block and/or a styptic stick should be in every shavers den. At some point - you will need it.Another question, (which this time is irrelevant to the initial post), I was planning to take a block of Alum, is it really useful? Or the fact of passing a towel of very cold water is enough to stop potential blood cuts?
I also wanted to create a brand new post to get advice on how to prepare the hair/skin before shaving (apart from soap and badger), but if you can give me your answers by replying directly to this post it's with great pleasure (in which case I'll create a new topic)
I can't find the message where you gave me the price about the CBL websiteChris from CBL emailed me yesterday because someone from france ordered from him yesterday..

From Page one post 18 of this thread..I can't find the message where you gave me the price about the CBL website
I just talked to Chris at CBL and he says he ships to Europe.. He ships a lot to Switzerland and he can ship to France too.. He said... " The shipping costs for 8-30 ounces runs about $24 "Kilmeny said:
CBL Soaps are not available in France unfortunately, whether on amazon france or on french brands/stores, that's why i will probably pick among Tobacco, Martin de Candre, Floid, RazoRock or Proraso i think.
What's the price range ? Shavemac in Germany is good. Bernd makes some nice brushes..Hey ! I've decided to put a bigger amount on the purchase of brush, some ideas of brand in this price range ? (Animals friendly or synthetic if my budget is too low for real badger)
I've heard that Edwin Jagger brushes are quoted by the company to have hair from a sustainable source of the badger species Meles meles (the European badger.)
I believe that France and Germany have a pest control program for badgers. Muhle (?) and Plisson are allowed to harvest the fur. EJ probably gets theirs from Muhle.
@jaro1069 @Jdchambersjr ?
50-60 eurosWhat's the price range ? Shavemac in Germany is good. Bernd makes some nice brushes..
I would go and have a look at Shavemac, but I will also look at Kent, Plisson or Edwin Jagger with a budget of 50/60euros, I should find what I'm looking for, (besides all these brands are equivalent in terms of quality, lifespan... ?).Shavemac Badger is tough to beat. I've had one for over ten years and it has lost almost zero bristles. If you can manage, better to buy a good one instead of another down the road.
