What's in your mailbox? #2
  • OK as per requested! I can't sticky it though.
  • No problem! Maybe at some point Alex will give the ability to "sticky"
  • heh at another forum I frequent, if you want a thread stickied, that'll be $10 a week.
  • Finally lost all resistance when I clicked Northerner's banner ad on Smpost.
    Free shipping this week and a bonus tin of the new Nick & Johnny Black Portions.
    So, now I've got those coming, along with a tin of General Los and Roda Lacket Los.
    Roughly the same as I pay for Copenhagen or Skoal. Just an opportunity to mix things up a bit.
    Should be fun, learning from scratch how to bake prillas and then trying to keep them in my lip.
    Even if I end up hating the stuff, I'm only out seven bucks.
  • I made an order with them today too. The freebies were too hard to pass up even though I just got a snus order from Getsnus. Well, at least I'll get to try the 0102 Lab Series and get my back ordered HDT.
  • I also succumbed to The Northerner freebie deal - I can't really afford it, but this lot should last me through to New Year now:

    Oliver Twist, Tropical
    Jakobssons Icefruit, Portion
    Oomph Licorice / Lemon (6mg)
    Skruf Original, Portion (bought with bonus points)
    Thunder Extra Stark, Mini Portion
    Göteborgs Rape No2, White Portion
    Gotländskt Julesnus, Portion
    General Dry Mint, White Mini Portion
    General, White Portion
    Gotland Green, Portion
    Gotland Original, Portion
    1847 by P. Morris, White Portion

    Ought to get the free N&J Black Strong portion as well.
    Now to see how long it takes to navigate these postal strikes & backlogs we're experiencing over here.
  • Another 'victim' of Northerner's special. Ordered yesterday and still pending on their website:

    Probe Whiskey, Loose - 1 pcs.
    Roda Lacket, Loose - 1 pcs.
    Taboca Snus, Loose - 1 pcs.
    Odens Kanel, Loose - 1 pcs.
    Gotland Yellow, Loose - 1 pcs.
    1847 by Philip Morris, Original - 1 pcs.
    Goteborgs Prima Fint, Loose - 1 pcs.
    Goteborgs Rape, Loose - 1 pcs.
    01 Original Portion - 1 pcs.

    Also, still expecting to receive my free tins from Toque from last week's lucky sixpence. I can't remember what all I ordered, but I hope they get here today!
  • Yes, I've also fallen for it, they must be quite busy up there to get all the stuff out. I could not resist although I don't really need some more snus.
  • I too am tempted by the Northerner offer but on a students budget I can't really justify splashing out for something I might not like :(

    I should probably make a new snuff order soon, though.
  • Nothing. Anyone else having problems w/ Northerner? It might not be them though...it could be customs but my last couple of orders have taken 2 weeks to get here, not to mention a tin of GH Kendal Brown taking more than a month. Ugh...wish I could get snus from NicotineRush.
  • Try Getsnus.com they're in Pennsylvania. Not as broad a selection, but I get orders in 2 days.
  • @wickedkitchen,
    I was going to chime in with a question about how long their parcels take.
    (Had next Friday planned for a marathon sing-along to "Take A Chance On Me" as I see how many prillas of Roda Lacket it takes in my lip at one time before I start sounding like Elmer Fudd. j/k)
    Oh well. I figure that the free shipping bonanza is going to slow things down a bit.
  • For years I've found Northerner to be six days to Boston like clockwork. I think that I had only two or three orders take longer until about three months ago. Now it seems to take forever. Maybe it has something to do w/ these postal strikes and I haven't a clue on where to parcels go through. The good thing is that they get back to your queries fast and their website is nice but the timing has been shite lately.

    I guess I can't complain, after all they're sending me a free can of N&J Black (allegedly) and I'm far from out of snus.

    I remember posting about a snus trial too for the US market. Haven't heard boo about that again either, nor have I seen any new snus in two weeks since the email. Huh. I'll check out Getsnus, Xander, thanks.
  • Just got the following from Tom at Nicotine Rush. I sent them to my new PO box in Wenatchee, WA, were I just moved. So, on the first day I picked up my keys, I had a package waiting on me, sweet! A few of these are new to me, but the rest are old favorites. The movers actually packed my snuff collection, because it would have taken up too much room in my car. So, these should get me by until I find a house and have my stuff delivered.

    McChrystals Violet 3.5g (new to me)
    McChrystals Super Mint 8.75g
    McChrystals O&G 21g
    McChrystals Highland Ice 8.75g
    GH Camphor Menthol 10g (new)

    Wilsons Aniseed & Eucalyptus 5g (new)
    Wilsons S.M. Brown 10g (new)
    McChrystals Eng Menthol 8.75g
  • Arrived today, a batch of fresh from the factory Offroad Limited Edition, Thunder minis and a Felinni. All dated for Aug. or Sept. 2010.
  • Just had an ebay win of the following:

    Illingworth kendal "Kenglow", "K67" and "Dr Rumneys mentholyptus". All sealed and unopened!

    Woohoo I feel like I'm diving into snuff's past :D Has anyone had any experience of these (I've got a feeling ermtony has)?
  • Yes for the K67 and Dr Rumney's. The K67 had lost its menthol but was still a decent snuff. The Dr Rumney's is remarkably good still, though the menthol is less strong than it would have been. I'll be interested to hear how the Kenglow is.
  • Just turned in an order to Nicotinerush:
    WOS Strasbourg
    WOS Brunswick
    WOS Gold Label
    WOS Grand Cairo

  • Got two trade parcels from Xander & Mr_Snuffypants this morning - a load of Sun snuff samples, Martian Rose & a couple of General snus sample packs from Xander
    and some Skoal Bandits & Copenhagen pouches from Mr_S (and some other cool stuff too!). Thanks, guys!!
  • Just arrived.10 Taxi Red,and one small tin of Wilsons Irish toast 22,from snuffstore,ordered yesterday,arrived today.
  • You're welcome. :-)
    I hope nothing cross contaminated, some of those were pretty strong smells.
  • A nice parcel from Xander containing:

    LARGE tin of Dental Mild Scotch
    Kendal Black Twist Chew

    Samples of:
    G Smiths Golden Cardinal...I could smell it even before I opened the package
    Dental Mild Scotch from the 1980's
    Samuel Gawith Grousemoor
    Samuel Gawith Red Crest, Blue Crest and Yellow Crest

    Thank you so much Alex, I'm going to enjoy every crumb of this treasure.
  • you are most welcome, Pieter. Let me know if that vintage Dental is any good. I've never had it fresh.
  • Glad they got there, BB1.
  • Just ordered from Toque:

    Lime Toast
    Natural Toast
    Berwick Brown
  • Today I got a snus order from GetSnus:
    2x 01 Lab series portions
    1x Skruf tranbar portions
    1x Grov original portions
    1x Skruf Original portions

    I had ordered mostly to try the 01 and Skruf Cranberry, but through a couple more tins in just to get my mystery can. Sadly it was General Wintergreen. I like General Wintergreen, but don't use more than a couple portions a week. I also already had a tin.
    Since I've been using snuff, I only go through a bout a tin a week of snus. So this'll last me a while, plus I already had a 1/2 roll of Ettan in the fridge! :)

    The 01 is nice. It's a straight salt/tobacco flavor, less 'chocolaty' than Ettan, but not really less 'rich'... I am definitely a fan of the new portions. They seem to last longer, though I suspect that it's because they stay in place better, so I don't 'mess' with them as much.
    After only 2 portions, I'm not ready to say I'd like all my snus to be portioned like this, but it's a welcome addition, for sure, especially when being discreet is key. I'd use these in places where I'd typically bring a tin of minis.

  • 25g each of Toque Berwick Brown and Natural Toast. Both very nice indeed.
  • @ ermtony pleased you got it. The postal workers strike is called off till after Christmas.
  • Which is a huge relief!

    Also got some more pipe baccy from Barber's in Otley. Their service is also great, and they sell snuff :)
  • A can of LD Los thanks to Big Blue.

    Trying to get the hang of it!
  • no kidding! If I make them too big, I'm very sorry after about 10 minutes.
  • I made a VERY small pris. Very nice! Flavor is great, and it lasted about 30 minutes before I had to start playing with it. Quite a little punch too!

    It was nice to a much smaller portion compared to the dip I use, but have the same nic kick! Maybe I can finally give my gums a break. I'm working up a cart at Getsnus.com.

    Did you guys know that LD was owned by Gallaher until they were bought out by Japanese Tobacco?
  • Oh yes, ye olde heartburn.

    I'll throw in a Skruf Stark and Claq Qui.

    Does anyone else use Getsnus? I see that most use Northerner, but from what I can tell, Getsnus carries a good selection.
  • I use Getsnus and Northerner both. Getnsnus' warehouse is close to here, so I get the order fast. Northerner has more variety, and snuff too.
    Look in the deals section. I got 7 tins of götlands for the price of 5 a week ago.
  • I've used Getsnus. At the time I lived in AZ, and despite being in the US, it took about the same amount of time (just over a week) to get to me as when I ordered from the Northerner. And, it came UPS instead of US mail, which as odd as it may sound is more of an inconvenience to me. The mail lady would just leave me a key to a bigger box if the packages were larger than my regular mailbox. But, with UPS they drop it off at the apartment managers office, and unless you got there before they closed you had to wait an extra day to get your snus. Which, there is nothing worse than knowing you have a package and being unable to get it. The only benefit to Getsnus is that there is no customs inspection. While it only happened once, I did have a package come that had obviously been searched by customs and then hardly even resealed. Luckily everything was there though, no thanks to those bastards.
  • I'm subscribed to getsnus' email newsletter, but have never tried any proper snus. Just waiting for the perfect time when I've money and there is a good deal going on and the wife is in a good mood
  • From Get Snus:

    Offroad Cranberry
    Offroad Original
    Phantom Blue
    Phantom Brown
    Roda Lacket
    Skruf Stark
    Claq Qui
    Mystery Can

    All los except the Qui.
  • Picked up a can of General los and General Wintergreen White at the store today.
  • thats what I like to hear. Have you tried the General Lös yet?
  • It was great being able to buy it, but next time I will try another store. The guy charged $6 per can, which is highway robbery. Oh what the need for tobacco does. There is still one more source that I have to try. The first store I tried yesterday stopped selling it, I guess it didn't sell. The guy I bought it from today not only charged too much but sold me an expired can, I suppose that one is my fault for not looking. Live and learn. Even though it's expired, it's still good. Yummmm..
