Will this be getting restocked as I’d like to get a tub? @Jonny
Big tubs, such as the 250g, currently need to be ordered specially. Contact @Kay will and we can get one in for you.
If its any use to you, we have plenty (52) of the 25g tubs in stock.
How much would a 250g tub cost? @Kay @jonny Not sure if this price is still an old price as it’s quite high.
Hi @115
Can you let me know the product and the price you are seeing please.
I looked into this. The 250g tub has not been in stock for over a year. Presumably this is because Dholakia have not fulfilled the order request, which I guess is because they have discontinued it. I have reached out to our contact in Dholakia to get a full product list, including prices. Before now we just had a category price list, but this did not include 250g tubs, so the prices for 250g were reduced during the price review but the new price was a guess.
So we wait to see what Dholakia come back with. If they still do it, we will order again, and hopefully we will get a true price from them as well. Until then, we have the other sizes in stock now.
He Jonny, Is Fubar discontinued?
No. It is still available from the website. We have some more on order but the Indian manufacturers have inconsistent lead times. Hopefully it will arrive soon.
Do you have a particular product in mind. I can check for you.
Goid news.
I just got confirmation that the manufacturer has dispatched our latest order, and that includes Fubar. We should be fully restocked soon.
I have an update for you.
It turns out that Dholakia are stopping snuff production in favour if manufacturing nicotine pouches.
However, they have agreed to continue supplying Mr Snuff with their top 10 best sellers, if we want. I haven’t checked yet but I am pretty sure Swiss Chocolate will be on the list.
@Jonny That’s good to know you will still be getting some. Hopefully this will be one let me know when you get the new prices on 250g please of this. I have bought 25g to keep me going a bit so hopefully it wont take long to sort. While you bought up nic pouches what are the chances of you stocking snus like General, Ettan and so on.
So sad, another manufacturer exiting the snuff making business
After losing Molens de Kralingse, Sternecker, Bernard, Pfalzer, Rosinski & now Dholakia it seems that slowly but steadily or beloved hobby is going extinct.
Those damned nicotine pouches, lately they are everywhere.
Lets hope that at least their 10 best sellers will be still produced and carry on the snuff tradition
Sorry to hijack the thread to vent my frustration…
These are the top ten best selling Dholakia products, over the last 365 days, in order. Is there any you would swap out for something else?
- DHO057 - Dholakia Swiss Chocolate 25g
- DHO064 - Dholakia White 25g
- DHO052 - Dholakia Sparrow Cool 9g
- DHO233 - Dholakia Lychee 9g
- DHO240 - Dholakia Roasted Nut 9g
- DHO246 - Dholakia Berry Frost 9g
- DHO243 - Dholakia Smoker’s Blend 9g
- DHO238 - Dholakia Sicilian Crush 9g
- DHO038 - Dholakia Manjul 9g
- DHO134 - Dholakia Medicated No.10 9g
Don’t worry about the size, we would get in all available sizes for each product.
Nope that looks pretty good to me. Glad they are still doing the chocolate and sicilian. Will any of these prices change?
Glad to see Dholakia white is on the list. Surprised that the black is not on there, may have to grab myself a few tubs before it dissappears for ever.
The prices are up in the air. We will have to see what Dholakia come back with, and at this stage we are not sure we are going to go ahead with the deal; but, just for interest sake, what would be the correct price point in your opinion?
What about the F.U.B.AR. line? Will it still be made or can we consider it defunct?
To be honest, I ain’t a clue but Id be happy with 250g for £15-£17. If I was you myself I would run a poll if you can on here to see if people like Dholakia snuffs. I say this as on reddit they don’t seem to get much love there so think a poll would help you know if you have the demand for them. I’d hate to see you stuck with products nobody wants. To be fair there are only two I’m after that’s the chocolate and the sicilian to try. I’m waiting on 25g of the chocolate to try atm I’m just going of the good reviews but if it’s as good as the raving I would probably get 250g of it or 150/170 odd g. The Sicilian I have not tried but going of reviews I will need to wait till I order again to grab one to sample but if I enjoy it probably get 150+ g.
Those are two I’m currently on the fence with. But if you have a good bit of stock I’d run the poll give me time to see what my chocolates like and hopefully I will have tried the sicilian to see if I want more. The Poll I’d run for a month get enough feedback see what the out comes is if there is not enough interest don’t bother with getting more.
If I were to take a guess at prices Id probably go at something similar to the 6photo prices 8g 45g 200g not the newer 30g tins for £.4.99. Like I say thats a stab in the dark for me to come up an idea.
If the out come is that the poll indicates no ones wanting it. Myself I’d reduce the stock a bit to help clear the stock and use that to get other stock thats selling or maybe look for some new products to trial.
I’d make it a announcement post/poll like the one you have done about shipping so everyone can see it.
At a guess I’d say no, If they are focusing on nic pouches. Probably depends how well they do producing and selling those. If they don’t do that well would be silly not to still produce it here and there if they can sell it and they still have the machinery to do so. We shall see what happens could be something they could trial here see if they are any good. I would give some a try if they are nice and cheap alternative to the EU/UK pouches for £5+. Idealy be nice to see them around the same price as the fubar chew bags or the gold rush snus bags. Thats what I’d be happy with lol
An update on our thinking with Dholakia.
We took a good look at the sales and honestly, they were not encouraging. Coupled to the poor rep we are seeing online, plus Dholakia’s strategic move to pouches, it is all making me wonder if they are worth the candle.
I am all for preserving snuff manufacturers, but unlike the historic European snuff manufacturers being killed by track and trace, this feels like more of a justified, natural death.
Maybe we just say goodbye to Dholakia? What do you think?
Fubar could live on mind you, we would switch production to Lachhman Das maybe
