I received a WoS Princes a while back, 25g, and I just opened it. And inside is the biggest clump of snuff I’ve ever seen. It’s like a stone. 1 1/2 inches long, 3/4 of an in across and 1/2 an inch thick. Rock hard, and of course the tin is all corroded. I like this snuff a lot it’s too bad all the tins I get are messed up.
Onc time on my way to work when I was in high school about 14 years ago I stopped and got a can of Copenhagen in this little town called Moulton Texas. got to work and opened the can and the entire underside of te lid was rust and the snuff looked like coffee grounds. It surely made for a long day at work. good thing I worked with a bunch of old men in Shiner Texas (where the famouse shiner bock beer is made) and they all spotted me chews throughout the day. I feel your pain brother it was 14 years ago and I still get irritated when I think about it
Also too bad that WoS customer service is so crappy (from what I have heard). Still I’d take some pictures of it and send them to WoS
It’s weird hearing all these WoS can mishaps. I’ll admit the cans aren’t very nice to keep your snuff in, since they easily spill, etc…, so I usually transfer them to another container, but I’ve never had any real problem once with any of their products. Just lucky maybe, huh? P.S: Though that’s unfortunate in some ways to have been delivered a brick of snuff, it also sounds kind of awesome, and if you could (no problem if you can’t) I’d love to see a picture of the thing saucy_jack. It’s sort of a situation like all those fanatical people you hear about in the news, finding pictures of Jesus or Mary in a piece of burnt toast or something: this snuff stone may be holy or something. Actually, now that I think about, that’s getting a little fanatical myself.
I recieved a small tin of WoS Princes that was all rusty inside. I emailed them with a photo attached. They were quick and courteos with their answer and sent me a tin of F&T Princes – perhaps it’s same snuff…
Wilson’s service is excellent and not just from what I have heard but from what I have experienced as a very satisfied customer for many years. I am quite sure that they will resolve the problem in their usual professional manner.
I had bought some WOS Gold Label that was different in flavour than my usual and Wilsons sent me a tin in the post which was fresh and spot on. They were very nice about it.
I have to agree with ermtony - they have never been less than friendly and completely professional in my dealings with them. The one and only time they got my order slightly wrong a replacement tin arrived in the mail the very next day.
lol sfingle “this snuff stone may be holy” made me chuckle! Hey Saucy, a picture would be great, if you’ve not already broken the thing up. All nestled there in it’s tin, “The Stone of Sharrow” (-;
Ha, the Holy Stone of Clonrichert (any Father Ted fans out there?).
Sorry james only saw it once and it was funny but haven’t gotten around to watching it again. Though my mom is a big fan of that show.
Guys, let me apologize for misspeaking about WoS’s customer service. I have had no personal dealing with them but remembered reading they were unresponsive. However, it seems clear that such is not the case. My sincerest apology
Ok guys, here it is - the stone of sharrow. mind, i’d broken up a bit of it already so in the picture is what is left of the stone.
Nice! Thanks for posting. I thought some of the chunks I had in my snuffs in the past were big! This takes it to whole new level.
All be respectful and humble afore the Stone of Sharrow rotflmao
Guess, if you could just assemble enough of these snuff stones, you really could build a snuffhouse.
Until it rains, then it would be a mudhut.
I looks like the snus I am about to bake.
You could grate it like old style rappee garrotte.
@Red Star: LOL. Made me groan.
