    I really want to order something new, but...damn shipping sucks.

    I was planning to make a little order. Just to try some new stuff out for myself.
    I know the more you order, the more cost effective it will be. I know that. But I really can't see myself spending over $100 for just 20 cans.
    I used to be able to buy weird random shit just for the hell of it. Now, I have to be far more careful with my money. I like the US and all, but man we have some stupid ****ed shit going on here. Maybe I'm just caught in a pre-PACT world, but damn. This is killing me.

        You know, that is a damn good idea. We can get it shipped to my house, as I always have someone of age at home to sign for it, and I can bring it over on a weekend. I really want to try that new Click. If it tastes like Tre, I'm sold. Anybody got an extra can their willing to trade for?

          I have some on the way, not sure how much, but if I have an extra can I'll send it to you.

            theres always the snus exchange

            http://www.snuson.com/forum/showthre...bacco-Exchange
            Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I killed because they were annoying......





            I've been wrong lots of times.  Lots of times I've thought I was wrong only to find out that I was right in the beginning.

              That would be cool Chad. I'll send you a can of LD for it, or something else.

                I placed an order because I was close to running out and didn't want to risk it. The next day Thunder Coola was available and I would like to try it but like you said Shipping. I am not going to pay that just to give something a try. I guess I will catch it on the next run.

                  We need to get organized and start some kind of buyers club that does a bulk order once a month.

                  Pick the person in the state with the cheapest taxes.

                  Then ship via UPS, cheapest rate available. This HAS to save money. I may be wrong, but I think this would be a good idea.

                  Make sure people we know/have certain post counts are the ones we do this with, just to be safe.

                    The only thing about that Thunder, is it will be gone soon for awhile before making a return later in the year. Sucks.

                      If it's any consolation, I live in the U.K and just did a test order with Northerner for a roll of Jaager Pris. It came to £44/$70 and that was with the cheapest snail mail carrier, it would have been over $80 with UPS.

                        That idea has been mulling around in my brain since the PACT act. Kind of a snus Co-op buying club. People could perhaps give a little contribution to the the main buyer, as in a can or two of snus, and everyone is happy. As far as I know it's not illegal as you can ship tobacco between individuals.

                        I still have lots of pre-PACT snus in the freezer but in the future I would be in. Of course being in a state with one of the highest smokeless tax rates makes the decision easy.

                          We talked about doing this before. I live in Alabama and have some pretty low taxes.

                            Hey man, I'm totally down. We split the price of the shipping and whatever cans we buy?

                              This would be good like when new products come out. 10 people go in and buy a roll and split the price 10 ways. Stuff like that would save money.
