I actually do not think that anyone of the tobacco vendors makes money with customers who order 2 snuff-cans for $5 + $7.95 shipping let alone those who order snuff for $10 with free shipping. I wish that all the vendors have enough lovers of expensive accessories or cigars etc. among their customers, to compensate for the money that they probably lose by doing business with small-scale smokeless tobacco customers.
Besides of that, my own snuff- and chewing-tobacco-orders usually also are pretty small and I'm also looking for the best bargain all the time, but to complain on an international forum about a minimum order of $10 or a shipping fee of $7.95 would never come to my mind.
Cheers!
