Must be some nice stuff at Snusline...

[tom-k]

Has anyone else had some issues with snusline lately? I've been wating over a month for my order to Austria and the tracking number is still not working with the Austrian post. When I email I always get the same response that it should arrive any day. I'm getting suspicious that it wont ever come. Has anyone had this situation with them?

No joserra - there are no different laws. The ban on Swedish Match and some other Swedish brands is entirely self-imposed.

Swedish Match have made it clear to the vendors that if they sell to the EU then they will no longer supply the online company selling it! I think that their reason is because they want the best chance for snus legalisation in the EU in the future. This all seemed to happen after the scandal when the EU health commissioner John Dalli from Malta was caught trying to get Swedish Match to bribe him to allow snus to be legalised (asking for €60,000,000 apparently!)

Swedish Match did not pay the bribe - and instead told the EU about the corruption .... who then sacked John Dalli, maintained the snus ban despite all the evidence ... and swept the whole thing under the carpet!

It stinks ... but you can't blame Swedish Match for wanting to keep the moral high ground in this EU ban scenario.

Those Swedes are not joking when it comes to honesty.... Thanks squeezy

I know it's off topic but I've always had this question... why can't Swedish Match snus be sold in the EU but some other stuff (like V2 and GN) can? Do EU laws discriminate among snus producers or why?

Snusline is relief for me as someone who's been a devoted snuser in Canada since 2008. Wish I could partake in Northerner's or Snuscentral's selections, but I know I can expect an ~$300 customs bill for 30 cans. I buy about 30 cans at a time and never had an issue at customs with a snusline order.
When asked what it is I kept ordering from Israel I told the postal lady it's kosher food. Hehe

That's a cool story. It's always good to see Canadian snusers online.

I ordered the 30 of april and another order on 1 of may... and i havnt received the shipment yet.. ye its half a month im be waiting. I contacted snusline. they told me Its still within normal postal range. Will come to you any day!. I have ordered from this site like 10 times before. But it omly toke about 3-7 days to arrive.. 7 days if the tax control toke it for a control and then they usually release it with no extra costs, because i order small amounts like 2-3 cans pr shitment. So im really concerned where my snus are, and what take it so long. Have anyone else tried to wait so long? and if yes? how long time did it take before it arrived?

Im from Denmark BTW.

Snusline has seemed to change something with the shipping. It took almost a month for my last order, even on the website it use to say 4 days shipping now its 7 days. Maybe they're using someone else for shipping or maybe just getting busy and having a hard time keeping up with orders, but yes shipping is taking a hell of alot longer.

There's a difference between a good lunch and a ham sandwich with a coffee!

You're paying for the atmosphere

I'm in Norway at the moment ... and I just paid 89 krone for 1 can of General!!! Yes folks ... that's £9 ... or $15 seriously crazy money! Well everything in Norway is that expensive as well ... I paid 129 NOK for a sandwich and a coffee - that's £13 or $20.

As well as being expensive this country is absolutely beautiful ... but I'm looking forward to coming home ... and the duty free snus section at the airport.

Roll of general, cough, please, cough cough

Not when i live on the westcoast of Denmark you have no idea of what it will cost to drive there across 2 insane expencive bridges, nor with Train it wouldnt be a cheap trip at all it would atleast cost me 170€ to make that trip :P

If i lived in copenhagen it would have been a option for sure.

Atleast we got General loose snus avalible in stores.
And a few Thunder products in potions. With cutted tobacco you have to chew a bit to get flavor, instead of grinded (real snus). A decent alternative, to bypass eu laws. But not as good as Real Potion snus :/ Thats why i order from snusline

I fly to sweden to buy my snus so Buy It lots to make it cost effective. I can understand if it was to cost you a lot to go and buy it, at least you can get general lös though. I would be happy if I could get that in a shop. I love the Oliver twists from Denmark, I understand you have a flavour called passion which I am dying to try but it's not sold over here, I do like the salmiak flavoured one though.

It would have been quicker to get the train to Malmo in Sweden and bought your snus there, no limit on what you can buy then and you can get whatever snus you want!
