The BST and Ebay!
apparently, you don't 
Good luck. You have to hunt and really want it.
same place as the tallow floris and penhaglions soaps
Dreadful stuff really.
Mike,
As you can tell by the sarcasm...this stuff is hard to come by. But good luck in your quest! It literally is like the Holy Grail in some ways...both in the quest and the prize...but the whole "Eternal Life" thing is debatable with the soap! LOL

I got mine on the B/S/T when I first got into hard soaps. Eternal life, no. BBS, yes!
Mike,
In case you don't already know, it's a vintage soap that was discontinued many years ago. It is no longer available retail. The only place to find it is antique shops, ebay, or B/S/T on B&B (and possibly other shaving sites). Occasionally, some crazy nut job will trade his Yardley for a bowl of tallow-first Penhaligon's (I have no regrets!).
Speaking of which, I have a Tallow first English Fern that I would like to trade for a Yardley. 
I'm not sure if there will be any takers, but it's worth a shot.

Gents,
I am assuming that the stuff being offered here is not the same?

Nope. Those are body soaps. The shaving soap was discontinued long ago.
...however, fwiw the Bath House Spanish Fig & Nutmeg shaving soap is quite good (for a vegetable-based product).
