    I have been wondering if we would have to order pipe tobacco and NCs from the same places people order CCs. As if we don't send enough money outside the US. We will be asking @bluenoser to keep us stocked up.
    Happy as if I had good sense.

    Hope you have deep pockets, welcome to the land of nonsensical tax and government controls. Last time I asked about a pouch of Borkum riff at a local convenience store I believe it was around $25. Any wonder why we buy from you guys down there. This FDA thing has me worried too as I don't have a lot to spend on the hobby and the low Canadian dollar has me avoiding any purchases since winter. Wineador's starting to look pretty bare. A lot of provinces up here are Banning flavored tobacco products to reduce interest from young people, even going after pipe tobacco. Damned all the pipe smoking teenagers, ruining it for the rest of us...

    I feel your pain. Most of the few tobacconists around the country here will happily sell you a tin of Erinmore flake for the low low price of $60 give or take.

    Jeezes, you guys need to move. I piss and moan about our prices. Erinmore Flake is $8.00 a tin....
