    I guess they wanted to comply and not take a chance in any case this thread is about no pact act effect on nasal Snuff not snus

      I used to get packages from Sweden labeled simply "Crafts". Too bad they can't still do that.

      Getter, true the heavier, larger, moister snuffs sit in the nose better, but I have sinus issues too and they clog me up wicked bad especially when there are other allergens in the air. Effin' New England. I would probably be better off in AZ that would be until I cooked an egg on the sidewalk. My wife actually did that once when she lived in Phoenix.

        i got a UPS from northerner a little more than a hour ago. I HAD to show my ID and sign for it. I am a fifty years old and look older than my age.

          Well, when I was researching flavor extracts and essential oils, there was
          mention of using a toothpick dipped into a strong essence and then stirring
          the toothpick into 'the recipe' to transfer the flavor.

          Being the nasal wuss that I am, I wouldn't hesitate to try the flat toothpick
          trick to dab the edge of the nose with snuff. If that doesn't work, I might
          even try a q-tip. (Of course, this would be an at-home technique.)

          At least until I get the gist of handling the snuff stuff!

            it's kind of sad but all the talk about sending snus via usps, can it be done, is it legal, etc reminds me of the late 1970s early 1980s. once upon a time there was this guy who had a good source of quaaludes and placidyls (for any young'n out there try google). but this source was a few states away. so usps was handy for the transport of these things and without problems over and over.

            now the conversation has shifted to getting snuff through the mail from the uk. over time i have grown up and would not touch something like quaaludes or placidyls and I have stopped any kind of drug use.

            but every time i read people talking about pact or sending tobacco through the mail i get kind of sad. not sad that i can't get snus through usps per se. it saddens me that so many of our rights have been taken away since i was younger and younger people (including my kids) will never know what America once was.

            i expect that what i am saying will sound like bs to some but i am deadly serious. i personally have seen a big change in our rights and freedoms, for the worse.

            i am having a downer of a day and i know it's coming through so i will shut up about it.

              You can still get plenty of stuff in the mail...and they're worried about snus.

                Kudos to Roderick

                I placed an order for Toque Snuff yesterday and everything went well.
                I received the corresponding email confirmations ................ and then
                I received the corresponding email confirmations.

                My CC account is set up to alert me of any international transactions
                and I received 2 notices from them for my ~$20 purchase. Didn't think
                anything of it since the messages seemed to be exact duplicates.

                Well, I was wrong!!

                Today I received a message from Roderick:
                "We have received 2 orders from you, one being a duplicate of the first
                order. I presume this was a mistake and will refund and cancel one of
                these for you."

                Hot damn!! This was actually caught before shipment, saving me the
                aggravation of having to deal with duplicate orders and duplicate
                billings.

                A tip of the hat to Roderick...

                I hope snuff and I get along since it's a pleasure doing business with Toque.

                      Judging on what you've ordered, you'll bound to like at least one of them

                      I still have yet to try the C&B, you'll have to give us a full report when you spend time with it.

                      Seriously, If the day comes when I can't get my Toque's Menthol and Natural Toast, is the day I quit all together.

                        I love Cheese and I love Bacon so I'm hopin' all the hype is well-founded.

                        The cheese is suspiciously reported to be Blue Cheese so it should
                        go great with my favorite Brianna's Blue Cheese Dressing.

                        Damn right ...................In more ways than two!!

                          I think I'll take advantage of Toque's "Sample Selection 10 for the price of 9. Free Worldwide Shipping."

                          For ~$20, it's a cheap enough way to test the waters snuff-wise and shipping-wise.

                          Now I've just gotta figure out what flavors I might like.

                            That's a fine order indeed. I wouldn't bother with the bullets, just learn a careful pinch and sniff routine and you're golden.

                                I got my order this afternoon and now trying to work up the gumption
                                to try out the Cheese & Bacon and one of the menthols.

                                Since we've been bandying this subject of orders in more than one
                                thread, I figured I'd just ask here:

                                DID YOU FINALLY PLACE AN ORDER??
