    Hey Guys............ thanks for shedding some light on the situation!

    Just to clarify.......will you continue shipping to the EU until April 25th..........or are you suspending EU sales until you see how things go on the 25th?

    Also, do you know anything about GN? What is the word on the street?

    Thanks

Otherwise the next step is to wait for the new tobacco directive in 2014. Our opinion is that EU ban is discriminating against snus since similar products are sold like Chema and Makla. Also the EU position that snus should be banned because of health issues, this is not scientifically correct based on massive studies on snus and the fact that Sweden carry the lowest tobacco related deseases in Europe inspite that the tobacco consumption is the same as for the rest of EU.
            All the best and may the snus angels be protecting us until the 25 th of April...
            You STILL don't say if you're going to ship snus until that date.

                I'd strongly suggest you Euros get as much snus as you can, even if it means making sacrifices in other parts of life. Think of it as an investment you can't lose on. You're guaranteed to at least keep what you started with, but have the potential to increase your investment by a huge percentage, both monetarily, and through enjoyment of life.

                      I could not agree more ... If you have the disposable income, which at the moment I don’t But ... at least it's better news this morning, we've now got until the 25th of April to stock up

                        Regarding the funding of that Bath University research:

                        The academic work you refer to is supported by the ‘Pricing Policies and Control of Tobacco in Europe (PPACTE)’ project and funded by the EC FP7 Grant Agreement HEALTH-F2-2009-223323. Professor Gilmore is supported by a Health Foundation Clinician Scientist Fellowship. The snus was not purchased using money from either of these grants.

                        Professor Gilmore is a member of the UK Centre for Tobacco Control Studies (UKCTCS), a UK Centre for Public Health Excellence. UKCTCS receives funding from the British Heart Foundation, Cancer Research UK, the Economic and Social Research Council, the Medical Research Council and the National Institute of Health Research, under the auspices of the UK Clinical Research Collaboration.

                          Does anyone know details of the SWW trial?
                          If helpful, we could all write letters to the judge for how snus helped us.

                            Is snusuk.co.uk a northerner site ? Their facebook page is saying...

                            "snusuk is ending due to anti tobacco nazis on the 7th of February."

                            http://www.facebook.com/SnusUK

                              Maybe they aren't using their EU sites for the EU. They may ship from the US warehouse only. Keep some degree of separation in the whole mess.

                                My order is coming from the EU, they've just sent a mail saying, "We were backed up in shipping orders out" They must have been hit hard with EU orders after the news came out. I'm still on "Pending" at the moment. I'll keep watching that site, see if it stays open for the EU after the 6th
