Has anyone tried TopSnus??

I hate the world that we live in where a company jumps through hoops to circumnavigate an unjust law that prevents the selling of a harm reducing tobacco product by finding a complicated solution based on a company based in the UAE where alcohol is illegal, a bank account in Germany where snus is illegal, and the product is sent direct from Sweden where snus is illegal to export!

Compare that with our major high street chemist in the UK that has re-located to Switzerland where it pays minimal tax to Switzerland, no tax at all to the UK and yet it is our biggest high street brand in the sector that everyone trusts! The world is too complicated for the regular guy and as a result everyone suffers except those who are already the richest in the world ... it sucks!

Its like that movie/book....a room with a view.....just with snus

Great post SJ.....and so very true

I was a bit worried that they would not stock them for long ... but I asked if there was a problem publicising that they were selling them to Europe and a guy called Magnus replied that Swedish Match were fine with them selling it! So I would hope this is a long term solution for us.

That is really good news for our EU brethren.....Not sure how top snus worked it......but who cares....as long as it holds it is great news..........hopefully the other suppliers will be allowed to follow suit

I have just checked the list of countries on the shipping list and it doesn't seem USA is included.

They currently have Swedish Match products available, not sure how long they'll manage to keep these available, I've put a small order down for a can of a few types to try as it's not a good month for a big purchase, hoping that they manage to keep them available into October at least.

XR range are only €2.75 though the rest of the types are €4.80 upwards

Laters, Tala

I am from America, does topsnus ship to America or is it solely for the Europe?

Wish i read this thread before ordering from them, my bank charged me £10 for the transfer:hopelessness:

On the plus side they replied to a query email even though its a sunday, and when it arrives i will have 4 new snus makes i've not ried before..

... plus Skruf, Jakobssons and V2 that I can get from other places.

where are you buying skruf please?

[squeezyjohn]

Well it turns out that the error was due to the manufacturer discontinuing a line that they were still advertising. But I have to hand it to them for sending out another replacement and good communications about what happened. I'm pretty sure I will be using them again - there are some excellent ranges of snus there, Knekt, Byron, Kapten, Lundgrens, Gustavus Granit and LD that I can't get elsewhere ... plus Skruf, Jakobssons and V2 that I can get from other places.

My test order arrived this morning. Excellent packaging and fairly quick delivery time by standard post. Unfortunately one of the items was the wrong snus (I only ordered 6 things I haven't had before as a tester). I've contacted them again to ask what they want to do about it - and I realise minor mistakes can happen - so my take on the shop is hanging on what they decide to do about it.

Getting the delivery certainly makes pinning down where the company is located even more of a mystery! The payment goes to a German bank, the package arrives from Sweden, and the invoice address is Dubai, United Arab Emirates!!! A tangled web indeed!

Guys, this is officially my new snus shop!

Got the snus today; if you consider that the transfer arrived on Monday, it took only 3 working days!! That's amazing

There was no reason for worrying; appearently they don't send you any mail or change the status after it's shipped.

I warmly suggest it to all EU snusers

Hahahaha it always helps

[squeezyjohn]

Yes - I did include the order number in the reference - but I should have thought and added my name too.

[Skell18]

That has happened with transfer wise before but you can add it again in another section. I emailed them to say it had gone through etc so they knew it was mine.
