    buying snus totally sucks now.

    i am about to need my first post pact order. i havent posted much here because its about as boring as the world of snus in america has become since pact. so i go to look at my options of what i can even order, and im so not enthused about my portion options that i actually like; being general, ettan, and grov. wtf. i dont even like any of those that much. in los form theyre all great but god damnit. i dont even use los that much anymore and i have a ton of it. alls i want is some skruf or 1847 or some god damn ld and gustavus. i guess what this all boils down to is that im going to punch some political official in the face. i dont know nor care which one. i dont care if they had anything to do with pact, but my knuckles will take solace in the fact that they f*cked somebodys day up, like they just f*cked mine.

    I'm nowhere near having to make an order, but I'm with ya. PACT doesn't even affect my choices all that much, but it pisses me off having some twat tell me I can't get something just because they can. They've ruined the choices, ruined the prices, and ruined the labels. It's a pissoff all around.

      I agree 100%. This whole PACT Act is plain stupid. The mini markets and tobacco companies promoted this act to stop the sale of a product that don't care to even stock in the first place. Also, the government could have been smart about this and allowed USPS to deliver tobacco for a small fee to check id. They could have made PACT into something beneficial for everybody. If they did this right, we would be able to get our snus after confirming we are of legal age, the USPS would have a way to make some extra money and the government would be able to get their taxes. Instead, we have this stupid system that limits our selection to the bare minimum while charging us a lot for shipping. I really don't mind paying the tax and getting my ID checked but at least meet me halfway with the shipping and selection.

      Just venting.

        See now, we're trying to make sense out of nonsense
        (aka no-sense aka the New American Way aka NAW).

        The opposition screams: IT'S FOR THE CHILDREN!!
        The politicians duck and graft -- I mean draft the laws.

        Remember, it's the squeakiest wheel that gets the grease...
        We just don't squeak loud enough!!

        Then again, maybe we can't afford the NAW anymore!!

          The government do something right? No, they'd rather go back on their treaties, and make less work for the USPS, while making it hardship for citizens to get what they want. But they have to protect all the children buying their cigs through the mail from reservations, and all the terrorist funding from buying tobacco overseas.

              Try SnusCentral or BuySnus.

              They are both selling Skruf.

                I'm pretty sure I'd stab a walrus for a can of Claq Qui.

                  They make Claq Qui out of Walruses?

                      Hell having White Tiger steak and cormorant eggs for breakfast wouldn't bother me a bit if it meant snus shipping costs would go back to what they were pre-PACT.

                        Why must animals die over our snus selection? The Walrus' and Tigers didn't do anything to you. If you really want to show you displeasure just write to your local senator or congressperson. They are always more than happy to hear from their constituents especially in matters effecting their rights and freedom. I wrote to my own Senator, Diane Feinstein and she sent me a letter back personally assuring me that she will take my views into consideration when voting for PACT. How cool is that?

                          Yeah, but shipping from Sweden is around $25 UPS, which is the only method available. I guess it's a matter of how badly one wants Skruf.

                            I'd eat a senator for breakfast, and it wouldn't bother me a bit if it meant snus prices/selection went back to the way they were pre-PACT :^P

                              Me to and I don't even eat meat. Problem is they would probably taste a bit old and gamey as carnivores never taste good when eaten.
