Did the same thing this morning. Oak Alley, Five o'clock Shadow, Riverboat Gambler (2 oz. tins), Night Train in 8 oz. cans. Bags of Haunted Bookshop and Three Friars. And a couple tins of SG Best Brown.

I had some Riverboat Gambler and 5 o clock shadow also in the order but when I saw 1792 was in stock I made the swap. Gotta get it when you can!

I'm going to be placing an order tonight for some English blends and Ive been using pipesandcigars.com. I'm only going to purchase online instead of my local tobacconists because I've already sampled all the English blends they have and looking for some I haven't tried yet.Piping Abe wrote: ↑Tue Jul 30, 2024 8:37 am Those bastards got me.

There are a number of online retailers how does Smoking Pipes match up with pipesandcigars for selection and shipping costs/speed. Thx for your input.

I’ll give it to you straight up. I would highly avoid PipesandCigars. There have been huge debacles in the past with them, just not sending items and not refunding. Even as far as sending legal collections notices to people who have already paid for items. Their website doesn’t get updated fast enough. A lot of times you place an order and it is not in stock and will be backordered. I could go on, but myself and many others stay far away from them. Before they merged with another company they were wonderful.xtian wrote: ↑Tue Jul 30, 2024 6:38 pmI'm going to be placing an order tonight for some English blends and Ive been using pipesandcigars.com.

SmokingPipes is one of the best in the business hands down. Very fast shipping, website is always up to date. Super awesome Customer Service. My order always comes very fast, and packaged extremely well. Smoking Pipes is one of the very few where the pipe you see on their website is the pipe you will recieve. Obviously lowered priced pipes may only have 1 pic, higher priced have more and maybe even a video.
I ordered from P&C for years but once they went downhill and tons of people’s order got messed up, i’ve been a Smoking Pipes customer ever since.
Other great Retailers are:
TobaccoPipes
CupOJoes
For small B&Ms that have their own blends but sell online and sell all the major stuff:
LJ Peretti’s
Wilke
Country Squire
