Wish i read this thread before ordering from them, my bank charged me £10 for the transfer:hopelessness:

On the plus side they replied to a query email even though its a sunday, and when it arrives i will have 4 new snus makes i've not ried before..

I am from America, does topsnus ship to America or is it solely for the Europe?

[Tala]

I have just checked the list of countries on the shipping list and it doesn't seem USA is included.

They currently have Swedish Match products available, not sure how long they'll manage to keep these available, I've put a small order down for a can of a few types to try as it's not a good month for a big purchase, hoping that they manage to keep them available into October at least.

XR range are only €2.75 though the rest of the types are €4.80 upwards

Laters, Tala

I was a bit worried that they would not stock them for long ... but I asked if there was a problem publicising that they were selling them to Europe and a guy called Magnus replied that Swedish Match were fine with them selling it! So I would hope this is a long term solution for us.

That is really good news for our EU brethren.....Not sure how top snus worked it......but who cares....as long as it holds it is great news..........hopefully the other suppliers will be allowed to follow suit

I hate the world that we live in where a company jumps through hoops to circumnavigate an unjust law that prevents the selling of a harm reducing tobacco product by finding a complicated solution based on a company based in the UAE where alcohol is illegal, a bank account in Germany where snus is illegal, and the product is sent direct from Sweden where snus is illegal to export!

Compare that with our major high street chemist in the UK that has re-located to Switzerland where it pays minimal tax to Switzerland, no tax at all to the UK and yet it is our biggest high street brand in the sector that everyone trusts! The world is too complicated for the regular guy and as a result everyone suffers except those who are already the richest in the world ... it sucks!

Hello everyone!

I had been lurking around snuson for a while and I'm so impressed with TopSnus that I decided to finally register just to contribute to this thread.
Living in the EU it's a pain in the *ss to find any decent Snus sources that stock anything beyond V2, so i'm always on the prowl for new shops that ship to the EU. I came across topsnus and found this thread looking for references on the webpage since I didn't quite fancy getting ripped off. I used snusline a couple of times and the first one was fine but the shipment took an age to arrive and my second order never arrived at all. I emailed them about it and never got an anwer, too.

When I found that TopSnus stocked General which I'd been dying to try for a while I was almost inmediately sold, but I wasn't too comfy with wire transfer being the only payment option available. After reading about some good experiences on this thread I decided to pull the trigger.

I placed a small order (five cans) on September 13th, a Sunday, and payed via direct wire transfer on the same day. I'm lucky and my bank didn't charge me anything for the international wire transfer (I'm located in Spain, bank is Banco Santander). With shipping it came to 28.50€. I used to bank's free email notification service to send TopSnus proof of the transfer right away.
Three days later they got the transfer and THAT SAME DAY I got an email from them saying my order had shipped. Initially I was a bit skeptical and thought they just just automatically sent the email and that they'd ship a couple of days later or the next day if I was lucky.

Well just a couple of hours ago my order showed up! Considering how PAINFULLY slow and inefficient the spanish post is, I now have absolutely no doubt they did ship on Wednesday 16th. The packaging is rather poor with just an unpadded, cardboard envelope but hey its rather light plastic pucks that we're shipping here, so I hardly expect them to sustain any damage except if they're crushed and a padded envelope would hardly make any difference in that scenario.

The snus is all reasonably fresh (end of june) to pretty damn fresh (The can of General classic portion is dated 28th of august!), I got all I asked for, the prices aren't cheap but neither are they expensive, the shipping was quick... What else could one realistically expect? A free roll of Islay snus with every order?

Highly recommended to anyone.

Minor gripes:
-Can't see no Roda Lackett, Goteborgs Rapé, Ettan and a couple of others I REALLY want to try. Hopefully the range will grow soon.
-It'd be great if they started taking credit cards or even PayPal. That'd make the whole process from payment to shipping even faster.

It's just the first order so I can't be sure subsequent one will go this smoothly, but if this is what I can reliably expect from them, they've just found themselves a new loyal customer!

I just that minute got an email from them saying they were now stocking Ettan portions.

oooooh SCORE!

thanks guys. Now I just have to wait a few weeks till I'm done with the order I just got...
I'll help that along by popping in a General Original Portion right away!

[Nordic7]

I just made an order too for the first time... hope everything will be ok! In the same time today or tomorrow i think i will have also my order from snusline... i am totally empty of snus :@

I'd emailed them previously asking if they were planning on getting other SM products and the reply was we're trying to expand the selection by the end of the year, I asked about Ettan, Gotebörgs rapé (they already have it in the xr range) etc. I think if they know people want them to stock it they will try to get it available.
