Delivery and Duty Paid HELP

[TomePorks]

Hello friends,

I am about too order 4 rolls plus 2 cans of snus, from snus-central.com I have read their shipping info and there is a little section I am a bit worried about.

"We pay the appropriate duties and government fees up front for you. We use the UPS DDP (Delivery and Duty Paid) service. If you as a customer should be contacted by a local authority to pay taxes or brokerage fees please contact us. We promise you that we’ll sort this out without any problems for you."

How often does it happen, where you get dinged for an extra charge? How much would it be on 42 cans?

I have placed two orders in the past, but never this big or with snus central. So I am a bit worried, as i cannot afford to get hit with additional charges, and certainly do not want my snus confiscated.

Also, how quick is snus centrals shipping? their site says 7-14 days, when I order from buysnus.com (both shipping from sweden) I have gotten my snus, both times, three days after it has shipped. and they have always shipped within 24 hours of me placing the order.


Thanks for the advice and knowledge, it is much appreciated.

I have never had any problems with them. My past orders I placed on Friday evening and received on Wednesday morning. They are off on weekends just as I am I would get a shipping notice late Sunday night/early Monday morning.

The only recent issues I have heard from any vendor was on orders of 90 rolls or more. Customs held it up but they eventually got their order.

Thanks for the info.

Damn, ordering 90 rolls at a time, must be nice.

This is what I ordered, how is the Thunder Raw...similar to thunder frosted at all?

Pretty sure that the shipping and everything is done through BuySnus so your experience should be identical...my experience has always been.

I've ordered from them Sunday evening US Pacific time and had it Wednesday morning.

I have had only good experiences with SC. I have waited at most 4 days for my order to be delivered, 3 if I'm lucky...If you order on a Sunday night seeing your package on Wednesday is normal. They always ship within 24hrs, unless you order on the weekend. The customer service there is really impressive and that is very important to me. TP with 42 cans you should be fine, I usually order between 4-6 rolls from them to keep the cost per can down.

Lets us know how it works out.

Well, I had placed my order on Sunday, today is Wednesday and I have gotten my snus. I love that my ups guy gets here before 10:30AM, great reason to go into work late. They shipped my general onyx in a general tube, as was there special for November, that is the only reason I ordered the onyx, it has a minor ding in the bottom of it, but other than that all is good.

The thunder Raw tastes alot like original Thunder Frosted. It might be a little less minty than the original which I think is a good thing. The onyx white portions are damn good with a wonderful bold tobacco taste with hints of lemon and salt. Overal am really happy with snus central, and they are also the cheapest so they will continue to get my business.
