    Lil Brown now has Thunder and Northerner!

    Lil Brown has expanded their snus selection. Shipping is dirt cheap. This could be the start of a good thing.

      If the original sales go well, will they expand their lineup? I only see thunder wintergreen right now.

        Yep, so buy it up :-) They will add products as volume of their existing offerings grow.

          Li'l Brown is a good vendor, I have ordered General from them. It's a shame they are are only offering WG Extreme portions.

            You can always email Lil Brown and tell them what you want. They are VERY responsive to customer requests. Hence the reason they carry Northerner Citrus Menthol now. I don't think list is current but you can check out http://snusdistribution.com/our_brands.php and let Lil Brown know what you want. More thunder and Jaks would be nice. I do know that they ship quickly and that even after taxes they are normally much cheaper than ordering from Sweden due to the lower shipping costs.

              I'm psyched, may ask them to order something else. Rick, do you carry regular strength Oden's or just extreme?

                Just extreme at the moment, but once volumes go up I'll pick up more variations. FYI...distribution volumes are growing and growing

                  Tell me about it. General was not selling well at all when it first popped up in gas stations here for $1.00. Now, they keep selling out of the white and original in the round cans.

                    Are they selling out at the regular price? How much is the regular price?

                      Around $5 to $6 a can. Funny thing is they always have wintergreen and mint in stock.

                        Wow I was just looking for a US importer to buy from and decided to come back to snuson to see what you fine folks had to say. This looks like a great store, but unfortunately they do not ship to the lovely state of CT. I really hope they can start shipping to more states and increase their stock. They would be the first US distributor/reseller that I have been able to find and capture a lot of business.

                        I am tired of buying from the EU and having to jump through hoops to get my packages delivered. I just ordered on Wed. 10/30, and the package was in the US and out for delivery on Friday. The only problem is it was at 2PM when i'm not home, like most hard working Americans. I have a real problem with paying $40 shipping, then being asked to pay another $40 yearly to UPS for their "my choice" bull, and another $5 to schedule a delivery that is reasonable. The other alternative is to drive 30 miles out of my way to pick up the package myself. This is nothing against the vendor, whom I will not name (not Northerner), as they have been wonderful in changing the delivery address to a UPS store so I can actually get my package.

                          I just picked up a new distributor in Maine, that believe it or not, distributes into CT. Get me the name of a tobacco shop or chain and I'll work on getting Thunder, Oden's or Offroad in there.

                            Hi Rick - are you working with any shops in the Boston area? A store locator for V2 shows that Leavitt and Peirce carries some of their products, but I only saw some very pricey General there. For times I can't get out of state, I am willing to pay a premium to support local shops if I can find the good stuff (not a big General fan thus far).

                              I'll have our rep give them a call to find out what's going on. They could just be out of stock, but I know that they used to carry V2 and Jakobsson's brands. I'd say it's time for them to pick up some Oden's too :-)
