I can't remember when I first heard about Future Primitive. Most likely, it was as a listing in a swap thread. I was intrigued, but the problem is Future Primitive is U.K. based. Shipping can be a deal breaker for me with US companies; Now add to that the cost of shipping a bunch of big bath and body care bottles across the Atlantic and you'll see why I never pulled the trigger. Fortunately for me, I was able to get in on a group order.
In case you're wondering what the heck a group order is, it's pretty much what it sounds like: a bunch of people will get together and place a big order at a shop. It makes sense because you can split an otherwise prohibitively large shipping cost among a bunch of people so that it's more reasonable. One person will collect all the monies from everyone, make an order, and then re-bag and ship everything out to all participants when it arrives. No muss, no fuss (except maybe for the organizer who's mad nice enough to run the whole circus). This one was run by Angi of Ajevie's Decants. She seems (now that I'm paying attention) to do group orders from different shops every month or so, along with her regular awesome decant services.
