No Old Spice for me

[ThePatrician]

I recently ran out of Old Spice aftershave. As anyone who has used it will know, Old Spice contains alcohol, and therefore has a shipping restriction placed on it. It won't ship to my address, from any website, including WCS and Amazon. Annoyingly, the OS shave cream has no restriction on it, so I can smell ONLY A LITTLE BIT like Old Spice. Like a goober, I completely forgot about this until I went to order some more. I was about to face the same problem with Clubman, but a considerate friend mailed me some as a holiday gift. This friend will now be getting my villa in Monte Carlo as well as my collection of Aston Martins.

If any Old Spice ever comes up on BST, I will jump on it like a starving hyena.

Aside from that being one of the stupidest shipping restrictions out there, why don't you try off of Ebay?

I recently ordered a few different aftershaves from WCS using USPS Priority without thinking about the alcohol restrictions. The restrictions are for "air" only so WCS changed it over to FedEx ground, shipped it right out and refunded me the difference in the shipping cost.

Are you somewhere that ground shipping can't go? If someone on BST ships you some aftershave they're suppose to disclose to the shipper if it contains any liquids, alcohol or chemicals. Lol of course I've had friends from Europe have me order them goods before and ship to them as "gifts" to bypass the crazy import taxes.

In the past, I have found this restriction to be a minor hindrance at the most, even living on what is essentially an island in Canada. The restriction really isn't geared for banning shaving supplies. Where is your address?

If you order from Europe that shouldn't be an issue at all. From here for instance: http://www.cheapsmells.com/productPaging.php?category=2&brand=Old+Spice&currency=GBP

Yeah. I bought Shulton OS Limes from India via the 'Bay.

Can you ship it to a different address like a friend's residence and have them send it to you?

+ 1 to ebay, pretty easy to get old spice from there

Drugstore.com sells it also. I havnt purchased Old Spice from them but do get British Sterling and Clubman aftershaves through them with no problem. They also have the free shipping with a $25 order.

I'm shipping to an Armed Forces Post Office Box, which even though it's still CONUS, for customs purposes is considered outside the US. It's beyond bizarre. I'm a little nervous about using the Bay, since I've had my account get hacked twice, as well as my wife's best friend's account get hacked. A couple of friends of ours have offered to get some stuff for us, so I may have them do a Target run.

I wish it were ONLY WCS, but it's everywhere. I've tried Drugstore.com, Target, Bullgoose, Shoebox, every one I could think of, and they all said the same thing: we can't ship Old Spice to you, sorry sport. Le sigh.
