    WARNING!: Do Not Order From Snuffcaddy.com

    As all of you know, I am a regular junkie about collecting little toys to go along with my tobacco use.

    I have all the Icetool sizes, a loose box, and I still use my copenhagen on a regular basis.

    Well, I decided that I was going to order a quick-draw holster from www.snuffcaddy.com.

    Here is what the website shows + their description:



    Quick Draw (Black) Designer Snuff Caddy
    The "Quick Draw" black colored designer series snuff caddy is a simple yet very fashionable piece made of 100% genuine leather. It is manufactured out of lightly oiled leather and is accented with durable black stitching through out. The black colored Quick Draw has an open concept bottom which allows for a quick and easy snuff can access. Hand made and hand finished with the outmost care, this caddy comes with a hidden magnetic closure snap as well as a leather covered belt clip. It clips to belts, purses and visors.

    And here is what was sent to me:







    Where is the leather wrapped clip? Where is the nice accent stitching? This piece of crap has a $.50 metal clip with the zinc plating chipping off and f'n rust spots!

    At this point I send an e-mail to snuffcaddy.com requesting that they re-send the item that I actually ordered... You know, the one pictured on the website that I was expecting, only to be let down when this piece of trash arrived!

    And then...

    I go to my refrigerator and get my can of Copenhagen snuff just to see how it looks anyways and look what happened!







    The damn thing is made so cheaply out of such low-grade, thin leather that it tore right at the stitching a third of the way down the holster. Not to mention that even WITH the rip in it, I still have to wrestle the clasp to even come close to sealing with it's magnetic closure point.

    At this point I sent a second e-mail saying "Forget the replacement, I want my money back!"

    There is nothing worse than ordering something and having it show up completely different in a very bad way. It is such a let-down.

    Now I wait and see what happens. :evil:

        I'm not sure if anyone has posted about this before, but Blade-Tech makes a kydex snuff holder. All the holsters i have from them are of great quality. I think they even have them on sale.

              Here is the update:

              I received a rather unprofessional response from snuffcaddy. The conversation went as follows:

              subject: Complaint Part 2

              realname: Kevin Xxxxx

              email: Xxxxxxxx@gmail.com

              message: Not only does this thing not have a leather wrapped belt clop, the thing tore at the seams the very first time I put a can of cope into it.

              Forget the replacement, I want my money back.

              SUBMIT: Submit

              Response:

              Info@snuffcaddy.com to me

              The clip design changed as the original design was not well received as for the ripping of the seams I find this very hard to believe email me some pictures as out of 15 thousand I have sold this is unheard off sorry your unhappy please send the pictures
              So instead of being professional and appologizing for a potential product flaw, he basically said that I was full of shit (in so many words)

              And my response to the above went as follows:

              As far as the design changing due to being not well received: You've basically bait & switched me. The reason I ordered this was because I liked the idea of a leather-wrapped clip. Also, the thing has no accent stitching as your description shows.

              Basically, this thing is nothing like what I paid for.

              I have attached several pictures for your viewing pleasure. The rip goes a good 1/3 way down the right side of the thing. The fit of the can is terrible. Even with the rip, I actually have to wrestle the the top strap to even get it far enough down to clasp into the magnet.

              I do not understand why you are being so defensive about this. None the less, take a look at my pictures, then refund my money (including freight) via Paypal to Toolebox@gmail.com

              Here are the order details for reference:

              Feb. 14, 2009 Payment To Snuffcaddy.com Completed Details -$27.45 USD

              Thank you,

              Kevin Xxxxx

              To see you with a fully functional one that looks 10x better made than this thing for $4 from 7-11... It makes me feel like a complete chump for dealing with such a poor business.

                That's really shitty dude. I think everybody should flood thier inbox with porn emails....

                on the up side tho... i have no use for mine, as it was an impulse buy. i found that my back pocket works far better. So if you want it, it's yours. 8)

                  Here is the final response. Again, quite unprofessional. I do not feel that I attacked him in any way. Rather stated the facts in a rather blunt manor.

                  Kevin
                  There is no bait and switch first of all I don't appreciate that accusation. I run a reputable business and sell on average 50 a day. This is the first time one has ever torn. The leather stretchs a couple times to fit your specific can. I have been so busy I havent had a chance to update the pictures or the description. I am sorry you are not happy and disappointed. I sent the package I will refund the cost of the caddy tomorrow.

                      Note to self: avoid said site and just use the one I won later when it arrives. Meanwhile I'll keep a couple tins in my bag.

                            That holder is definitely not the one pictured. The one in the photo looks quite nice. I would demand reimbursement immediately. I would be tempted to buy one from another site.

                              Hey Xobeloot, let me flip this around on you. We order from so many places, from another country no less many times. And all the various snus, snuff, tool, and general forum person has always come through for us.

                              So in terms of our little hobby, 98% of the time we get so well taken care of. This is the exception, use it to remind yourself just how lucky we are
