Odens Snus Availabilety in USA

[GN Tobacco Sweden AB]

Dear gentlemen i would like to explain to you and understand from you few things:
If we divide GN snus DISTRIBUTION in USA we have 2 ways.

1. Kretek International with who we have signed kontrakt for distribtion in USA.

2.Internet sales.

Now lets talk about Kretek Iinternational :
At this moment they only wants to have from us Odens Extreme Lös and Odens Extreme Portion. WHY?
a) Not FDA approved yet.
b) About other reasons i will keep my thoughts secret to not put KRETEK IN WRONG position.

And now lets talk about internet sales:
As far as i know there are several companys who distribute snus to consumers in USA via internet, and we are keen to sale them our products .
It is not that we give to one internet company more preferences then to others , but each internet company has theyr policy what they would like to carry in theyr portfolio.
Now Northerner is one of the companys who would like to have all type of productes we produce, and that is why thay do have it in theyr wherehouse, there are other companys who would like to taste and see is it somthing for them to have or not , and as you understand we can not force them to have all our products, i hope so far is clear.

NOW i do understand that there are some states where you can not get snus via internet and i do understand that not everybody who would like to buy snus from one or another site , but what WE WANT IS THAT OUR SNUS HAS TO BE AVAILABLE EVEN IN ALASKA , now what you AMERICANS suggest me to do to make you easy get GN PRODUCTS.?

Well GN, I live in a state that restricts internet purchasing. So any domestic supplier would not be a plus, although further penetration of the American market at the retail level would be advantageous.

The best plan would be to have all available snus distributors carry your products. Several of the big snus internet stores serve our needs at the present time, although Northerner cannot. Your latest shipment of snus (Ving 99) to Snuscentral and Buysnus has made those snus available to me. I simply think that the demand for your latest products, reflecting the superb craftsmanship of Conny, will naturally result in additional orders of an expanded line of your snus from the larger distributors, thus resolving the availability issue.

Dear GN I think we all realize you are doing all you can to sell all your snus flavors to US customers due to all the FDA red tape you have to go through. As for internet sales a lot of folks can't afford to make large orders to pay the high cost of UPS shipping thanks to Obama.So maybe in time at least some of your flavors will make it to USA stores so for now I will just order what I can when I can and I appreciate for your efforts.

What about that that distribution center in Korea? Is it Korea? Arent they going to be available to USA soon?

Are you talking about Snusline? If so, they are based in Israel. Hopefully they start shipping to the US soon.

Thanks for this info GN! Me personally, I'd be happy to see all your line up anywhere online available to the US. I don't mind paying a premium for shipping...it keeps me off the smokes! And in the end it costs less than my smoking habit did.

That kinda sucks that online retailers get to pick and choose which they want to carry...but it's their business.

I just hope to see all the new flavors available to us here in the US soon...and I hope I find a job so I can buy some! ;-)

In Korea we going to sell only 2 types
Odens Cold Power Portio - 12 mg Nicotine
Odens Stark Portion 15 mg Nicotine
And it's not Internet sales , it's inland distribution.

I dont mind ordering snus from overseas and having to use UPS. If the USPS doesnt want to ship tobacco, good. They suck at delivering mail anyhow and are a burdensome goverment agency. Go bankrupt already, USPS!

Cant wait to burn thru these last 12 or so tins so I can order some Odens.

[Burnsey]

I some what agree Z. I like UPS anyway, but I request the before 10:30 am delivery and generally receive my orders within four days which is great, but it is thirty two bucks! In a more perfect world, i would like to be able to walk into a convenience store and pick my snus from a large variety, the way dip is now!

[Zimobog]

Yo Burnsey, once I managed the finances to get the first big order in from UPS, saving for second in the meantime was no problem!
A corner store in Alaska would likely charge like $8 a tin for snus if they had it. The difference for me buying retail vs online is like buying milk at my favorite bulk store ($3 a gallon) vs buying milk at a gas station ($9 a gallon). Paying for the convenience of local snus would make it more expensive for me anyhow, not cheaper. In Nevada you might have more competition due to having more stores and that would keep the snus price low for you.

[Burnsey]

I know things can be pricey there, so online is a better option for you. I was paying about $5.50 with tax for General round cans here, not bad, before I started ordering online. But there was not much of a selection. My ordering now is about like the kid in the candy shop!!!

[nate.n]

If i could buy oden's extreme lös from my local gas station i would prob never order online again even if it was $5 a tin. Thats about what i pay after shipping anyways

[Faylool]

Yes. Thats it. Israel. I think that site looks promising.

Are you talking about Snusline? If so, they are based in Israel. Hopefully they start shipping to the US soon.

I eagerly await SNUSLINE to ship to US........dangittt
