    I did a research to see which store offered the best price per 10, 20, 30 100, 200 cans. The price is total price including shipping.

    10 GenenarlPortion (USA) $43.70-------($56,79)
    20 GenenarlPortion (USA) $84.40-------($104,82)
    30 GenenarlPortion (USA) $125.20-------($158,69)

    10 GenenarlPortion (EU) $54.73-------($56,79)
    20 GenenarlPortion (EU) $104.46-------($110,66)
    30 GenenarlPortion (EU) $165.94-------($166,72)

    Something is wrong with your prices.

    I see, that you are aware, that there are huge price differences according to from where you order, mostly due to taxes. Yet, it seems, that you partly try to compare Northerner's U.S.-prices with Buysnus' E.U.-prices. Maybe your browser didn't manage to switch correctly.

    For example, I just checked the price for 10 cans of General Portions for the U.S. at Buysnus. The price is 37,23 US-$, NOT 56,79.

    Cheers!

    P.S. You should edit your post by providing the correct prices, if I'm right.

      But try to go all the way

      If you go all the way through the shopping cart choosing shipping alternative + printing your address etc all the way to check out, you will see that the prices on buysnus are correct.

        Although I haven't checked the prices I think northener is a little cheaper then buysnus but you have to remember if you ordered 200 cans from buysnus you would get another 30 for free

          Northerner still cheaper

          Well, if you take the free 30 cans into consideration which will give you a price of $987,95 (after the 30 cans reduction). Northerner is still cheaper as you can see... :wink:

                Wait until you start getting customs and brokerage charges when ordering from Northerner to the USA. It won't be cheaper then. I have no such issues with buysnus.

                  Hi AlrightMister,

                  I don't understand, you mean that by splitting the order Buysnus send several packages which go through US custom? instead of one big parcel!

                  That is of course more convenient so you don't have to pay custom :shock:

                    I made an order with Northerner totalling 11 cans of snus. A few days after receiving it I got an invoice from UPS for customs duty and brokerage fees. I have since made a couple of orders from buysnus of the same or larger size shipped USPS via Swedish post and have had no surprize customs or brokerage fees. I can not say if my order from Northerner was singled out for some reason or not but I have not heard of anyone else in the USA getting a bill like this when ordering from any website.

                    All of my orders have always shipped as a single parcel.

                      thanks

                      Thanks, I will think about this when ordering - maybe I will not experience the same problem ordering less number of cans. I will try some new brands and had a look on the two web shops.

                      Number of snus brands:

                      Northerner.com: 125 different brands
                      Buysnus: 75 different brands

                        same everywhere - you don't get hit all the time as they only inspect a percentage of packages. Gangster tactics - they just come around once in a while and rough you up for protection money if you step out of line and do business with the dangerous world they want to act as proxy for. Every country is the same. :roll: So much for the free market, eh?

                          Ordering today and reading this post, I thought I would process both sites to the end and see what I got.

                          Ordering 10 cans of Skruf Stark, no bonus, 1st priority mail to US.

                          Notherner $44.35
                          Buysnus $37.23

                          All the same but UPS EXPRESS SAVER

                          Northerner $55.55
                          Buysnus $62.17

                          Hmm. ok, here is an interesting twist.
                          Final order from notherner of a random selection.

                          UPS EXPRESS SAVER - $33.90
                          1-2 Business Day(s) Delivery

                          First Priority Mail $15.10
                          Tobacco Tax ( á 50 gram ) $5.52
                          Tobacco Tax ( á 24 gram ) $10.56
                          Tobacco Tax ( á 24 gram ) $0.88

                            Notherner is $42.45

                              Why would it be so different for krugerfred and I, both in the US?

                              How much was shipping krugerfred?
                              Here is what I had, copied and pasted from buysnus.com
