Out of curiosity, what do you pay for it? At the moment I can get rough cut Aleppo soap for about €1.10 here in Germany. I've heard it's dirt cheap in Syria.

I get mine from a small grocery store in my hometown in Lebanon. I pay around $3 for a kilo which contains usually some 8 cubes of soap.

Nice price! I wonder what shipping from Lebanon to Europe costs...

I'm not sure tbh, Aramex typically charges inbound shipments around $9 per 500 grams. However I must note that I'm not getting the best price. If I take a short trip to villages I can buy in bulk which is way, way cheaper. And these soap bars last very long.
