Thanks Fredrik, I just completed the order with no problems.

Sorry to say but Snusbargain looks like it could use a quick infusion of excitement.

Like the 2 new offerings from Jakobsson's:

• Classic Strong
• Mint Strong

That would certainly get them out the gate in a fine fashion!

I'm trying but it's stuck in a never ending loop on "Age verification" wtf!

= Do we have to order these separately or what? As in a 10ct of mint and a 10ct of Classic?

Ok verification finally went through BUT I see the shipping charge being added per 10ct order? This is going to nullify the savings in ordering the roll of each, no? I'm totally confused.... Oh, plus upon completion of the 'mint' age verification part, it says two asteriks with NO in stock.

HALP!!! I'm stupid.

click on Orders and you'll get a status report showing your 2 orders.


Here's my Helpdesk query on 11/02/2010:

Q: If I purchase more than one of the bargains before the end of the buy period, will they ship together to save on shipping charges? Or do I have to pay base shipping rates on each separately?

A: You pay for each order separate, so that applies to the shipping charges as well. This due to the account reservations that we do on the bargains, we can not just authorize parts of the amount, its all or nothing.

Q: Let's say I order 2 separate bargains, one right after the other, and they are both active, they can't be combined to save on shipping?

A: No sorry its not possible I'm afraid.



Fredrick's take:

Unfortunately not, it has to do with our ability to release the reservation on your card in case a bargain doesn't become active. We can't release just part of a reservation. Wish we could...

Ah boner.. So whilst this is a decent deal, it is no longer a great deal and kinda cancels my desire to take a shot ordering by the roll for a first time snus now rather than just padding one of my normal fav. brands orders with a tin each and continue to save on shipping with a total combined shipment the normal way. blah.... I know I'm a cheap ass.

From another thread:

Noticed there's a big difference (in my case) in ordering 10 cans vs 15 or 25...

These totals include shipping & taxes:
10 cans = 51.60 total -- 5.16/can
15 cans = 70.57 total -- 4.70/can
25 cans = 109.52 total -- 4.38/can

They're still good deals but the taxes really suck!!


Too bad there's no option for a 50/50 split order!!
Like 5 or 8 or 13 or 25 of each...

Yea pretty much sums it up. There are some good deals on there but only if you're ordering a proven brand you already like. Not worth taking a chance on a whole roll or more for a 1st timer once the shipping kicks in, you're back up to avg $4 per can at least. Oh well.

I know I make about as much sense as a popcorn fart but I try.

My feelings on these two:

• I like the original Classic and the Classic Strong is supposed to be pretty much the same but with a higher Nic hit
• I like the Jak Wintergreen and the reviews I've seen (from the lucky guinea pigs ... ah I mean testers) all were pretty much highly complimentary

I figured 15 cans of each is a no-brainer since I haven't come across a Jak's I really don't like. Of course time will tell!!



btw, I understand popcorn farts are rare and are to be treasured!!
