Northerner now shipping from the US

[Maximus]

Welcome to America Frank! I think all of us hope that America treats you as well as you have treated us. I think it is awesome that you have opened up a store here. If you ever decide to visit the Midwest, make sure you stop by Minnesota. We have a lot of Scandanavian history in this state and quite a few of your customers that I'm sure like myself would all love to treat you to a beer.

[Mr. Snuffleupagus]

Welcome to the states Frank! This is very exciting news for me. I have ordered from Northerner 99.9% of the time and am a very happy customer. Shipping from the US is like icing on the cake. I hope you have a great time while you are here.

[Soft Morning, City!]

Frank's in America? Awesome. Just awesome.

I hope that more brands become available from the American warehouse eventually, but this is indeed extremely exciting news. The idea that I will someday be able to order my favorite brands from a location within the States is very, very cool.

Very nice Northerner! I have been placing all of my orders through you guys and it has been great. Quicker shipping times + cheaper price = WIN!

Now just to figure out how to work for you guys! That would be my dream job.

Oh man, working in the snus industry... that would indeed be some cool beans.

This is great news!

Welcome Frank! I'm hoping to make a trip to Sweden when the money is right but things are tight for now. Enjoy your time here!

Thanks Frank. Great news to the snus community. We value and appreciate your action.

Great news Frank.

BTW most people may not know...

Pennsylvania is the only state that does not tax chewing tobacco, snuff or cigars, and people overwhelmingly support a tax on smokeless tobacco and increases in the cigarette tax, Rendell said. He has tried to make similar changes before, but the tobacco industry has a strong lobby in the state.

The word "stogie" comes from the town of Conestoga, the heart of Pennsylvania's tobacco-growing region, which produces more than 17 million pounds of tobacco per year. And Pennsylvania has become home to several large distributors.

Welcome Frank, I'm glad you're here. I've been ordering exclusively from Northerner since I began snusing.

Speaking of taxes, will a fellow Pennsylvania resident have to pay sales tax when ordering from Northerner now?

[Quemador]

Superb news this is! I couldn't be happier it's only General for now.

Frank, it's refreshing to hear you are enjoying your time in the U.S!
Afford yourself some time to visit the West Coast (Southwest Airlines has some great deals).

P.S. Let me know if you're in need of a West Coast/Southwest regional sales rep., I might know someone who could masterfully fill such a position.

[Mohave]

I was delighted by this great news. Welcome. I would look forward even more to an expansion of your US product line. I believe you'd find the stronger snus (General's Stark, Extra Stark, Onyx & other brands such as Claq Qui, etc) would be well received in the US if they were made available, along with others I think are suited to many American tastes such as Gotland's and Goteborg's and Catch products. Glad you're here; wish you much success.

Looking forward to you bringing over the snuff soon. Hint hint,don't forget the snuff! :lol:

[hoss]

Welcome & we hope you enjoy your stay!

Thank you guys for all recommendations. I will see if there is any time to see anything more of this wonderful country except the car drive I will make in next week. Right now I'm just sitting and working in the warehouse all day long - and I appreciate that very much. This coming Saturday I will go and watch a local college team here in Allentown playing "Lacrosse" - I had never heard of this sport before but someone told me it's a very old American Sport - I'm excited!

In next week I will drive with the car to the Snus test markets in Ohio, Indiana and Ottawa to try (for me) new American snus products like Marlboro Snus, Triumph Snus and du Maurier Snus.

If anyone of you live in Ottawa/Canada (I'll be there on Monday 20/4) Cleveland (22/4), Indianapolis (23/4), Columbus (24/4) - I invite you all for a free lunch and some freebie General Snus. You just have to tell me which place we will meet :-) - looking forward very much to meet up for a chat with an American snuser.

Sincerely,

Frank

Frank, I live in Columbus and would love to meet you. Name your time and place. I know there are a couple other guys in the area also.
