What can/should I order/do.

[devilock76]

I have family in Sweden, they are coming to the states for a family reunion this July. So I asked them about bringing over snus and they said sure thing. So a couple of questions:

1. What and how much can they legally bring in, and should they or I expect any potential customs surcharges or taxes at either end of the journey?
2. What should I get, wanted to focus on things I can't get through Northerner as that is where I usually order from? I am primarily a los user and like stuff such as Ettan, Gotenberg's Rape, Grov on occasion, some V2 stuff. Definitely thinking of having them bring some Skruff los over. Any others I should think about.
3. If need be I was going to send them funds in advance for their purchase as a matter of convenience. What is a good way to wire money to someone in Sweden?
4. I figured it would be better to put the snus in checked luggage vs carry on, as a matter of their convenience and the temperatures in the cargo hold would be good for the snus anyway. Am I correct and should they seal the snus in any way (ziplock baggies or what not) for travel?

You could probably get away with at least 2 or 3 rolls because I believe you are allowed to buy a carton of smokes per person. A roll of snus packed in 10 would seem similar.

If they still have montecristo los... I would get a roll of that for sure!! never tried those Marlboro Norway versions either. First thing I am going to try next trip over there.

Maybe you should get some gustavus lös also. i haven't use it in years but i'm pretty sure it's still great lös.

definitely get some V2 stuff, grov, gustavus, skruf and some general ekstra sterk. :-)

I popped in a portion of General Ekstra sterk yesterday, boy, I missed this one a lot!

Swedish match knows what they're doing ;_)

Thunder. Frosted.

I like Offroad Frosted Loose Better :^)

V2 and Swedish Match products are already plenty easy to get through Northerner so probably not those. Skruf Gustavus not so much. So I think they are definitely on the list.

Lucky strike and the "Marlboro", do they come in los and can anyone describe the flavor or something they are similar too?
