You researched? Or you fired someone else's bullet?
This thread has had no effect at all in the wider world and changed nothing except to harden resolve for members to obtain American soaps direct. Vendors had already become aware of EU Legislation both here and abroad and were acting each in their own way. All you've achieved is to cause a storm in a tea cup here in TSR.
Your moral indignation reads as being defensive. Have the courage to re-post the item you so rapidly deleted and let everyone work out your real motivation.
I think not. Imagine if Stuart Shaving Station heard from the Department of Correct Shaving Soap and called a self-appointed expert on EU Legislation, who perhaps feels he has lost sales of his Correct Shaving Soap because of Incorrect Imports, for advice. Perhaps then the self-appointed expert sees an opportunity and writes a piece on the matter of Incorrect Imported Shaving Soap and gets a friend to post it here, there and everywhere.
Between the lines, Burgundy's rapidly deleted post and his anonymised sources kinda point that way and pretty much ID the originating friend, who had him delete the post very soon after it was posted.
So am I just another conspiracy theorist?

texaspete said:This was alluded to earlier, but is it coincidental that Shaving Station stopped selling US artisan soaps at same time this thread started?
