    Tracking my shipment from somewhere in Oregon.

    I've got 40 cans of Skruf Extra Stark bought off of Buysnus.com coming in from Sweden. It looks like they made it through customs ok. Now en route to OR from Louisville, KY. Next hurdle, the Oregon tax man. Anyone else had success get Skruf into the US? I can't believe I'm sweating this delivery. Since PACT, getting my Skruf in feels almost criminal. I can't believe this is happening.

    I wouldn't worry about it. I have order several times since PACT and not one time was anything taxed or confiscated. In fact buysnus says they ship duty paid anyway. Your only worry is if some customs smuck actually knows which snuses are contraband now. Something I don't ever see happening.

      If one called the FDA one would likely be on hold for a week and have to plunge 20 layers deep into its tortured bureaucratic maze before finding someone who knows, A. What snus is, and B. Which companies have not submitted the required info.

        Isn't this whole thing totally insane? On top of it all, I live in a banned state. I've found a source, which I will not reveal, but I feel like a criminal too, because if I get caught I'll be in a lot of trouble! Tobacco is a plant that God created, in all His wisdom. Now, if this were crack cocaine, or something of the like, I could see the big fuss, but this is TOTALLY insane!

          Everything arrived just fine.

          Whew! Just got my Skruf in, and I'm enjoying a bit right now. Mmmmm, Skruuuuf. I hope they go ahead and pony up their info before I'm ready to make another order. I need them to get off that banned list. Happy snusing all.

                Hey C bro.. On buysnus did it have the express ups option on it? On
                SnusCentral it did.. Cost like 1.50 extra.. No idea of it makes it faster or not.

                    No it does NOT make it faster. I ship UPS all the time, and that express option is BS way to make an extra couple bucks for them(UPS).

                    Usually I get my snus within 5 working days from them using the regular method. Dont waste your dollar on the express.

                        Skruf order

                        I did not use the express UPS option, just the standard. However, I placed my order on the 28th (product coming out of Sweden) and received it on the 30th, which I thought was pretty damn fast. Obviously it went air all the way. This was my first order through Buysnus, so this may not be typical. I'm normally a Northerner customer, and they generally take 8 days to deliver from PA.

                          There is something to that. I ship UPS all day long and from KY to anything on the Pacific coast can take 5-6 days sometimes. So I can get things from Sweden faster than from California!

                              Express for me shows 50 cents extra and I take it in the summer. It does get here a day or two faster, but the main reason I do it is because the express packages are delivered first. So, rather than coming between 5:30 - 6:30 p.m. after sitting in the oven that is the back of those vans, it comes no later than 11 a.m. and has never been over room temperature.
