The reason why we have to limit the brand selection is that by the 22nd of June, FDA requirements says that ALL tobacco brands sold in the US should be registered at the FDA - the manufacturer should send an ingredient list and register all their brands. The only manufacturer that have done so are; Swedish Match, Skruf/Imperial, Gotlandssnus, V2 and TillCe. I have contacted both JTI and BAT several times and they told me that they have no intention of register their brands in the US because of possible conflicts with their US organizations. Gellivare never even replied to my request. Gajane might do it but have not given any more information when it will be done.
This is what we've got so far. It's subject to change of course, and references Northerner in particular. There may be some luck slipping stuff through from other suppliers, but I'd suggest anyone who does keep their mouths shut about it.

Thank you for the info kind sir.

JTI owns the "LD" trademark in the USA. It's just not a priority for them now, I should think.
Larry from SnusCentral met a rep from Skruf at a recent US tradeshow. When Imperial bought Commonwealth Brands a few years ago, their CEO expressed a desire to do snus in the USA. And if it's been registered with the FDA, it's a strategic decision.
And that means they'll be more interested in bricks & mortar availability through Commonwealth's distribution system than in selling to a few people over the Internet.
CAN I GO ON IN A DARK AND EMPTY WORLD...ONE WITHOUT CHAINI..KHAINI...
Jokes aside I like granit, this news blows. Last time I was on this site I thought PACT was done for, now tonight I see that clubsnus is going out. Too bad.
