That begs the question, should I buy into the hype? I wasn't going to, but...

I think all these limited releases are a bunch of hype to move tobacco, but if you like Va-per blends, I doubt that it will disappoint, and get better with a few years. If you are speculating, I think it is a safe bet to be able to sell for much more when the feds drop the hammer. It looks like MSRP is $14.25 per tin.

I would say there must be some demand. As soon as the clock hit midnight, their server went down. lol

Sometimes better to live in the Western environment when a Midnight release is done on the east coast.

I must've been just in time.
I've gotten just about every http error there is from SP, now. The good ol' 500, the 503, the 508, and now the 404. (Yes, yes, there are lots more http error status codes than that. Get up out muh face.)

Just tried Tobaccopipes, appears to be sold out there. I'd send you one of my tins, Pete, but my UPS store doesn't ship tobacco products anymore, which leaves just the PO, and it's virtually impossible for me to get to the PO, given their hours and mine.

Haven't been involved in something this nuts since the Christmas of "Tickle Me Elmo"! Heh. I remember The Great Cabbage Patch Christmas of, like, 1984 or something. People lost they minds. This doesn't seem quite so bad. No fistfights, so far as I know.

I appreciate the fact that they work with small farm productions. Really, I do. I think that's great. But since Laudisi acquired C & D and they brought a change to the anti - mold agent (remember the long series of molded tins?), I have developed an oral intolerance to their products, which was again confirmed not too long ago when I bought some Haunted Bookshop, OJK, Windjammer, Spark Plug, Temple Bar and Regent's Flake. Which is too bad because I used to enjoy their products a lot.
