Just passed on two packages of Williams soap at an antique shop. One originally marked $0.69 and one $0.75. No idea how old as I don't know much about Williams but the packaging seemed to be vintage. The price was $9.00 each. Seemd a bit high to me.

When was the last of the "good Williams soap", and how can we easily determine between the good stuff and the newer, less desireable reformulation?
Dont mean to hijack the thread but this is along the lines of the OP. I came upon what looked like a "vintage" Williams puck w/Menthol. Didn't know they made it with menthol. Anyone know if it's any good? Performance wise. It was $12. Is it worth the price?
Pretty personal as to what to pay. It's a darn good soap and I'll pay $5 for a puck if I see it, but for $10 I'd opt for a current production soap like Cade.
is this stuff so great, without a scent its worth the hunt for them, or is it just something a lot of people want to try for themselves because its talked about so much, and they want in on the conversation.
I do see some people from time to time listing it as their number one soap, or they keep lots around becuase its all they shave with, is it really worth all that ?
so its great for 5 buck to see what williams used to be, but at 10 bucks your just nuts lol, something like that ?

I'd take that same $9.00 and choose from many wonderful soaps currently stocked.
I wouldn't say someone is nuts. Some people don't like fragrance, they like that soapy smell. To me, the scent is a huge part of the experience. So I can't fault someone for spending that much, its just for me personally there are other soaps I'd rather have more. For $5 though I'd grab it in a heartbeat
