    I want to try the buttered rum but it's got only only review on the site and it isn't a good review.

    Rise and shine sounds like it's worth a try though. I like a good oriental blend myself.

    they also had a bunch of tins and other things not on the site, so if there is anything anyone can think of in the "oh boy you have HAVE to try this stuff", i can see if they have it

    that sounds about right on the mcclelland, they had more that you cant see too, the smaller cab with small amounts of pipes were estates, they also offer pipe repair in there, had some snuff and some snus lights cigars humidors and the like plus all the tools, and its five minutes up the road, im doomed

    I don't have that problem. When I went into Tobacco Lane, they had tins going for $19-25 that I could get online for $9.

    Canadian law (at least Ontario law) prohibits selling on line to addresses in Ontario, but EVERY online American retailer I have used will ship here.

    illegal for them to ship or is it illegal to recieve it too ?

    and if thats the case and im not risking a 10 000 dollar fine, who do you guys normally get your stuff from ?

    i payed 45 cents/gram for the loose three cherry, and 30 for the virginia

    but the tins were in the 25-30 dollar range and 50 bucks for the peterson summertime 2012

    I have only ever been whacked with duty once, and it was still cheaper than purchasing from a B&M in Canada.
