What's the Deal in Oregon?

[olderthandirt]

I know of a store but he wants to know who Rich's distributor is. :twisted:

Pat's Cig's is willing to stock some.

Pats eh? The place in Kaiser? Your in Salem as well then? Or did I miss that fact someplace? How many more questions can I throw in here?

I'd seen the volcano a year or so back. Actually used something similar in the late 80's.

Anyway, I suppose I should swing by Pat's and see about putting a bug in their ear as well, may prompt some action! Hopefully not 6 dollar stale cans but...

Yep, I'm here too :wink:

Please do swing by Pat's in Keizer.
Who is Pat? I used to think Pat was
a women but a dude is in charge now.
He is who you want to speak to. He told
me he bought most of T-Whitiker's pipe
selection. He tried to look up a distributor
when I spoke to him by phone. He'd like
to know where to obtain Snus.

Oh reeeaalllly!

Shout out to anyone here that knows!!!

Appears there may be a smoke shop in Salem Oregon that is interested in carrying snus instead of SNUS. What kind of info does he need to get hooked up with SM or V2 or, or, or...?

He wanted to know of a distributor. He asked me to nonchalantly ask
Rich's where they get theor snus. I don't know that Rich's would
tell me. :wink:

S'pose I failed "nonchalant" lol

Richs? Who would that be?

ETA: Nevermind, I see it...

Here is an example:

http://www.swedishsnus.com/us/faq
Please note that sales of Swedish snus by SwedishSnus.com

* are prohibited in Arizona, Delaware, Idaho, Indiana, Oregon and Rhode Island due to state regulations.


I've seen this on more than one site.

Also, this made me curious so I sent off an inquiry. Received a solid response just a moment ago:

"thanks a lot for your Email. In fact we took over operations of SwedishSnus.com in November last year. At that time, we took over all configurations 1:1 and are right now step by step investigating things like that. We first felt that Swedish Match had good reasons to do it like this so we did not question this immediately. But since you are already the second customer asking this, we will immeditely have a new look into that and quite possibly remove this limitation.

Since some other information supports what you are suggesting, we will quite likely start to sell to these statest, too, maybe as soon as the end of this week.

Thanks again for your mail, we really appreciate your input!

Trust I thanked em' for the time taken to respond!

Never dealt with this particular vendor but the substance of the reply impressed me so that they are bookmarked and I'll check occasionally to see if in fact there are any changes to the sales exclusions.

Rich's is one of my favorite stores anywhere. I love that place. WIth all the international magazines and tobacco products and paraphernalia, I could spend a full 8 hours in there. Tried to get a job there every year for 5 years straight that I lived there... no dice.

Hehe, I like to interpret that as, "...sell to these authoritarian statist thugs too..."

Anyone happen to know of any retailers in the Eugene, OR area?

I used to work for that guy (for a few weeks). Claimed he came over here for a NASA job but got fired. Then got busted for apparently running coke out the back door, then ran for mayor? lol what a fruit. Good memories in Eugene.

Edit: Pretty sure he doesn't carry snus, you just reminded me of him. And I know you know who he is. I bet he would buy you some snus, then you could buy it from him.

[Joe234]

Richs' emailed me that their price for snus
is $6.95 a can. :!:
