when I first heard of snuff I was one that mocked it, now I cant imagine being without it and why anyone would not feel like me. total hypocrite, I know.
I spend my days on the internet trying to find recipes and processes for the inevitable (what a member here termed) snuffmageddon.
i’m going to bed now with a batch milling down in the basement.
well we all know you can get it from smokes-spirits, maybe just spend a bunch of cash now and lay that fear to rest
786 @Hitsuzen, I’m sorry you don’t like the tone. I’m a bad man. If you can point to a specific “insult” that I called you, please identify it and I will apologize.
So I see you were indeed around. Then I disagree with you. I disagree wholly. And I am allowed to do so. Strongly if I so wish. Let’s not turn a mutual disagreement into a fight.
Regarding your statement E, I know you did. That’s the only part I agreed with. I meant if it had been the entirety of the statement, I would agree wholeheartedly. That was all.
As it is there aren’t any American vendors who can even stock a good selection of American snuffs. And those are ALL labeled, and have always been labeled.
The paltry little outfits that everypony seems to mention as “proof” that buying American snuffs is just as easy now as it was then lack two things: a good selection and the ability to keep that selection in stock.
If you can produce a reliable American snuff merchant who stocks a large selection of snuffs from all over the world and does not continually run out, who does not list snuffs which are not in stock and will never be in stock, only then will I believe that things before and after PACT are even remotely the same or will ever be remotely the same.
PACT or no PACT, it seems like Swisher (for example) doesn’t even know they make snuff nowadays. I’ve reached out to try and identify a regional distributor of their wide variety of dry snuffs, and the responses have varied from no-reply, to “we make snuff”?
In my opinion it’s a combination of heavy-handed legislation, and a market that’s been declining for a hundred years. Hopefully snuff takers continue to blossom, and 'murican tobacco companies wise up that there is money to be made. (But never so much that we attract the attention of our “ruling class”.)
All I know is that in Colorado, where I live, I have three legal marijuana shops in my little town, but none of our grocery stores carry any American snuff. I’ve had to resort to ebay and find old, sometimes rusty tins of whatever I can. I try to find ones with no rust on the tins. I’ve actually acquired a rather huge amount. The latest was a 5oz jar of unopened Garrett Sweet that I scored for 5 bucks. I also have found Peach, Tuberose, Tops, and Navy, plus an exceptional pristine unopened tin of Red Rose, which is my current fav. So, you should spend a little time looking on ebay. I’ve even found a one pound, unopened can of Gallagher’s High Irish Toast, shipped to me from Australia!
@mrmanos I can get WE Garrett, WE Garrett Sweet & Mild, and Tube Rose locally. I don’t think Colorado has a state mail ban on smokeless tobacco, so if you’d like to work something out, I’d be happy to send you some.
I don’t recall hearing about bans in my state, but I don’t see any snuff for sale anywhere. A head/tobacco/pipe/cigar shop had some G&H and Silver Dollar tins, and they were a dried out mess.
Can’t recall any US brands anywhere. Maybe @Noisebox knows of a place in NW Oregon?
I’ve seen W.E. Garrett Scotch and Sweet Scotch at two places on Division in Gresham, All Stop and Tobacco Outlet. T.O. also had 6 Silver Dollar scents. 82nd Ave Tobacco and Pipe supposedly carries “American Snuff Co” products but i haven’t made it out that way yet.
@DireWolf It would be quite a trek, but there is The TinderBox in Tacoma, WA. I’ve seen WE Garrett, Poschl, and WoS. Call before making the drive, or course. 
Thanks @mrmanos, I just got a WE Garrett off ebay for $6.
I would like to buy some scotch snuffs too. A few years back, Snuffstore in Germany had the full range
but at some point the scotch snuffs did disappear from the list. I guess it was because of PACT but i am
not sure. I know that MrSnuff have some in his list but to be honest they are too pricey.
Thanks @Hitsuzen! I may take you up on that. At the moment I’m almost too full, if thats possible, of American snuffs. At last count I have about 12 tins and big glass jars of Honest, Red Seal, Garrett sweet and almost all the others, even an old box of Bruton. I keep looking on ebay for the old unopened ones without rust on the lids.
Came today from ebay purchase. Thanks for the idea @mrmanos 
I heard Sams club sells Scotches. Weather or not it available at your nearest store is another question. http://www.samsclub.com/sams/search/searchResults.jsp?searchCategoryId=all&searchTerm=Scotch+Snuff+&fromHome=no&\_requestid=32036.
@McSnuffy Do you know if that seller has more?
@RailroadMills, yes he does. You can make an offer and he’ll tell you if you get it right away. I offered $6.00 and got it. I bet you could offer $3 or $4 and still get it. Shipping is $2.08. It is a small tin, 1/2 ounce.
I went trough EBay at first and bought a few. Now I go through http://smokes-spirits.com/. They come in 12 packs, but it averages out to around four dollars per container and quite a collection of Scottish snuffs.
I can only buy scotch snuff where I live they only have 3 kinds around here
I have some for trade if any are interested
@Mnzfam What have you got? And perhaps more importantly, what do you want in trade?
FYI… Mr. Snuff has some of these in stock now. Might want to act quickly.
