GetSnus Input

[deadohsky]

I would just like to say that I am extremely pleased with what's going on in this thread (and others). I think we are taking something BIG for granted here. I don't know about other countries, but anyone in America will likely tell you that what is happening on this thread is probably one of their first they have ever experienced.

How often do you get to go on a forum for, let's say health insurance, and they have a special PR guy dedicated JUST to your forum that sits around and asks for consumer input on what YOU would like. What kind of discounts YOU would like to see that would make you do business with them.

Really, this to me is just amazing and I applaud Northerner for what's happening here. They are actually paying two guys to sit around and make sure the customer gets what they want. They ask for feedback and hear out anyone's opinion good or bad. I wish to God more companies were like this in America. (I know Norhterner is a "smaller" company, but still).

We are having a straight out town hall meeting to tell some company (a tobacco company none the less) what it is we want to see that will get our business, and Northerner will likely implement some of these ideas. Outstanding, and bravo. My hat's off to you Northerner.

sgreger, im not really sure what your getting at.. the finances i can see, but if your only ordering once every other month or so, i dont see what the difference is, besides youd save a ton of money not shipping all those small orders

I order about once a month, and I spend 100$. This gets me a months worth of stuff. If 1 roll of 10 cans is 50$, than this means more money for me since I need at least 30 cans. Then again, if shipping was included in that number than it won't be so bad. It kinda depends how much shipping will cost. If it's 200$ free shipping than I will just start making larger orders to get the free shipping.

I also think $200 is too much to get free shipping. I've never been a big buyer, so I never even did $50, but with the Pact, I think $100 would be good.

Hey guys. Just think once Northerner completes it's takeover of retail snus's, It'll only take about 5 cans to hit the $200 threshold anyhoo..


STOP!!!! j/k... I joke, I joke...

I think?

[Fury]

I voted other, even though the 1/2 roll prices would be good also. There should also be a 1/2 roll for bonus points for both GetSnus & Northerner.

From post 162 in getsnus no more thread these are the brands that have yet to comply- somebody should sticky this

Post 162 in this thread

Ah OK thank you. That is great news as I usually order 01, 02, Ettan, Roda Lacket, Grovsnus. Nice!

Well said. This is how capitalism is supposed to work, and how it did work, before everything got taken over by the Corporate State. The proprietor listened to customers and did his best to meet their needs. The business owners who kept their customers happiest were the successful ones.

I agree totally. But if Fred is going to be hanging around [please do] I sure hope he can "take a joke" or some ribbing every now and then. Or I'm in BIG trouble!


Personally, whatever Northerner wants to do for us is fine with me. Hell, just the fact that they asked for our opinion is very much appreciated IMO. You guys figure it out. I'll be happy no matter what they decide to do. Thanks Fred

Yah, i'm buying snus one way or another. i know this makes me a tool, but if snuson and northerner are friends now, than that means I will choose northerner to buy snus from (unless someone has it way cheaper). But on a relitavely equal field, I like to support my own.

[spirit72]

Well, I voted 'Other' because I guess none of these are 'must have' for me. What I'm interested in more than anything else is getting the best, fairest deal that I can get, and Northerner has always provided that. GetSnus was too good to be true, right from the beginning, and those of us who had been ordering from Northerner and BuySnus for awhile knew that.

1)'Mystery Cans' are a nice gesture, I guess. Sometimes I like it. Other times I don't, and then I use that can first so I can get it outta my way. Maybe allow suggestions? I once requested Gustavus lös from BuySnus as the offered 'random can', because I hadn't tried it yet, and sure enough they sent it for me. That was cool. But another time, GetSnus sent me a can of Onyx, and it went straight to Iraq in the snuff box pass(I think).

2)I much prefer Lazer's suggestion of a 'Mystery Woman' with each order. Your business will really take off.

3)Half-roll discounts are nice. I am mostly down to a couple of brands that I order by the roll regularly. There are others that I like from time to time, but I don't necessarily want to go through 10 cans of it.

4)On shipping incentives, I'll say this: When ordering from GetSnus, I always....*always* made sure that my order came in over $50. But being well into my 3rd year of using snus, I have yet to spend $200 on a single order. I think the most I've spent is $150 or so, and that lasted me a good 4 months.

[justintempler]

That $200 could easily become $300 is you include PACT taxes so I don't see too many people taking advantage of it.

Instead of the mystery can it'd be nice to be able to choose a free can for orders of 10+ cans. The discounted expired section would also be nice, but half roll discounts wouldn't seem that fantastic to me. As others said, if i'm gonna buy 5 cans I might as well buy a roll.

[MojoQuestor]

I voted for half rolls. I miss those the most. I miss the mystery can, too, but I already have enough mini mint and wintergreen

[TWISTED VICTOR]

Ok,

This is, in my opinion, the ultimate incintive plan for the new Getsnus:

5 can roll discounts
Free shipping on orders over $100
Buy 10 cans get 1 free can of your choice

I think this all would appeal to everyone, and sorta keeps the idea of the special deals the original getsnus had.

I'd like to recant my original vote of 5 can discounts and cast a new one for this ^^^^!

[texasmade]

i voted other.

free shipping for every 1000 points since you have to buy 80-100 tins of snus to get that many points.

free shipping for orders 75$ + or 100$ +

Half rolls in the Club100 for 500 points

i still hold this view

[heppycat]

I would rather see a discounted/expired section than any other 'feature.'
