More cushion than Tabac?

@Jel999 you need MORE!! Wholly Kaw in tallow with donkey milk version in your den because I've got 8 in total see attachment all donkey milk, and one more is on the way called Merchant of Tobacco with donkey milk. Also found out two days ago there's going to be another Wholly Kaw donkey milk next month very soon.

I'm restricted to what Maggards stock but I can't choose between Monaco Royale & Man from Mayfair.
 
You're obviously in the States as Wholly Kaw want $46.99 inc shipping. Maggards were only $28.88.
I'm from Australia not from USA.

I choose the lowest cost First-Class Package International Service: $23.25 USD to pay my shipping cost to send directly to Australia, I don't choose Priority Mail Express just the normal shipping standard International shipping.

I also have my own US International mail box to have all my order sent to Australia.
 
A few samples arrived today.

This is the cost they want to charge me & it's a ridiculous amount.
 
Better than Tabac?

No.

Different, but just as good? Yes, plenty :) Many good options already mentioned. Fine's soaps for instance is terrific, but they also follow Tabac's recipe, so they can hardly be anything else than in the top. Also Caties Bubbles "Luxury" line is great. I'm not that impressed by the "regular" line-up.
 
Vitos and the blades arrived today. Vitos smells amazing.
The blades were the wrong ones. Platinum rather than silver blue. My fault rather than the trader. I should check what I'm doing!

What a brilliant idea.
I'll seriously give this some thought.
Many thanks for telling me about this as I had no idea.
@Jel999 I used my US International Mailbox all time when I needed something from U.S., always look for U.S. discount prices this will help you save a lot more in the long run and most cases you made have to pay just a little bit more on International shipping cost depending on how many or how big is your order.

Also look for UK postage U.S. International postal services because they do have there own for example:- click here I have a U.S. International & Australian Post all combined so there has to be a U.S. International & UK Postal service all combined if you know where to look and do some extra research before you go too far.

My top soaps are currently Tabac and Saponificio Varesino 70th Anniversary.

I've tried other Saponificio Varesino soaps, Wool Fat and Proraso recently. Proraso was disappointing, Wool fat good but boring, and Tabac and SV excellent.

On another well known shaving forum, Tabac was mentioned as mediocre, which surprised me.

Are there other soaps which provide better glide and cushion than Tabac?

Thanks

Give the La Toja shave stick a go.
For around £3 it out performs some £15-£20 soaps
 
I opened Vitos today. Smells amazing. I did a little patch test this morning, and will have a proper shave tonight.
Lather took longer than others to get a decent consistency, but it's not that big of a deal.
My order was for 100g, but Gemstonetrading sent me nearly 150g according to the packaging.
