Cheapest ARKO?

[Gairdner]

This is the cheapest price I can find for ARKO in a 12 stick box:

ARKO at Amazon

£11.90 delivered is less than £1 stick and I personally find it a superior latherer to the Palmolive and Erasmic sticks. I so wanted to like the Erasmic as it is UK-made but its not for me. Some folks hate the ARKO scent but I love it - clean and fresh. :angel:

If there is a way to upgrade this link to provide a small income for TSR from Amazon at no cost to the user then could a Mod please let me know.

Thanks.

Amazon US has it for 15 sticks for 20$us. With free shipping. No idea how they can do it at that price.

Thanks for the link. I only have one stick left. A box of 12 should see me out. I love the stuff.

You can't think like that, Peter!

I've 6 coming through the post from bestshave.net. It smells so strongly of citronella to me, it's main use'll be when travelling in hot/buggy countries!

You do when you get near 70 and many of your mates are gone!

Oh! Is it still cheaper than Amazon?

£1.29 each on best shave

1 lira (30p) per stick in Beykoz market outside Istanbul this summer
(sorry I know that's not the point of the thread...)

 

[Gairdner]

Still, it makes me jealous!

I think arko's performance is much better then erasmic and just as good if not better then palmolive. but this is my personal opinion. in turkey where arkos are produced theye are so cheap! I think if you buy them in bulks and import here in thousands i bet it will be cheaper then 30p/stick

 

[missingskin]

They were selling them for 10tl a box in the market in Marmaris last year, think the box will last me a while......

Although I'm just a beginner, these are pretty similar to my findings although I rate ARKO much higher than Palmolive. I so wanted to like the Erasmic as its British made but I don't get on with it at all. ARKO truly is one hell of soap despite the divisions its scent causes.

Mrs Gairdner and I honeymooned in a Hotel halfway between Marmaris and Icmeler. If I knew then what I know now......might have got some soap too.

 

[Tainted]

Absolutely love Arko. IMO, the best bang for buck soap/cream on the market.

arko is nice...i put mine into a plastic push up type holder and taped the label around it.

i love loading it up nice and thick.

I usually see them for 99p back in Turkish supermarkets in London. Will stock up on a few next time I am down that way.

I got a puck from ebay for £3 delivered. How they managed to send it from Istanbul for that price and still make a profit eludes me.

The smell of this stuff reminds me of the smell of the turkish baths I visited whilst in Icmeler. Not sure if that's a good or bad thing though seeing as the mrs got perved on something chronic whilst we were there!

I'd never go back there put it that way, I'm too pretty for Turkish jail! haha
