Hello PSF members,

I recently got back into pipe smoking and I am trying to figure out my options for a Europe based tobacconist. Google came up with a few results and I managed to place a test order with one of them. I would still like your input... Any experience with EU vendors?

Thank you!

Thank you sir. I used to frequent these forums a few years ago when I was mostly based in the UK. Lost my login and email... I should find my PSF pipe for proof ;)

I like the new theme by the way.

Welcome to PSF. No help here for europe tobacconists. There are a few europe based members here so maybe they will be of some help when they chime in.

Hello from Texas!
I'll be straight up with you. I have no clue what's going on in your neck of the woods. These guy's seem reputable and they have something I want and can't get here. Lol.

Thank you for your welcome and suggestions. Unfortunately UK based tobacconist don't ship outside of the UK right now. Even if they did, after their domestic tobacco tax and taxation on my end, it would become extremely expensive.

The one I found is hacico.de , based in Germany. Still waiting for the order to arrive. They mostly carry cigars and EU made pipe tobaccos. I guess there is some shortage now because most blends were out of stock. Maybe check them out and if everything goes well, I'd be happy to accommodate a cigar or two for PSF members in the future.
