Hi, since there already is a post that mentions a member/members that you should avoid, I figured I should make a list with members that I had a great snuff trading experience with! Feel free to comment members that are good traders, and I will add to the list. Now, I am NOT saying that these members ALWAYS have something to trade, or are always willing to trade, but if they DO agree to a trade, then you can trust them 100%. Positive, trustworthy members: @jmahes @hitsuzen @Mnzfam @TerrapinFlyer @markstinson @AlKindiSnuff @RailroadMills @jmahes @SeanOCDPx @Ubert @basement_shaman @Noisebox @spyder @franko954 @Mouse @hgrissom @mrmanos @chefdaniel @lunecat @Firestarter @DireWolf ***I will keep adding to this list, as I am about to trade with a couple members at the moment. And, if anyone I mention wants me to take their name off the list, either for privacy reasons, or because they don’t do trades anymore, then let me know, and I will do so right away.
A couple to add to that list…
@markstinson
@AlKindiSnuff
@SeanOCDPx will add
Thanks @ RailroadMills! Please add yourself to that list
Here are some off the top of my head who are still active I would trade with again any day of the week (please IM me if you’d like your name removed): @RailroadMills @jmahes @SeanOCDPx @Ubert (even though customs intervened) @basement_shaman @Noisebox @spyder @franko954 @Mouse @hgrissom @mrmanos There are more, but allot of my messages never made it through the site switchover last year.
Oh yeah, and @chefdaniel. I found trading with him to be quite beneficial.
I’ve done very little trading, but two members I have traded with very successfully are lunecat and Firestarter. I’d would have no hesitations in trading with these two gentlemen
Thanks for this. I’ve only completed one trade here and doing another now. I like to assume we are all honest, mature people, but I know that’s not the case. I got burned once in about a dozen pipe tobacco trades elsewhere. It’s nice to know who the “good guys” are here–and I would have guessed most on the list just by their contributions to discussions here.
I haven’t traded with anyone, but I can assure folks, I am great, honest snuff sniffer.
I promise.
I have never traded with him, but I will definitely vouch for @DireWolf, my fellow Wharf Rat B-)
Gee, we seem to have a few Wharf Rats, self included!
@Hitsuzen @TerrapinFlyer What’s a Wharf Rat? Haha
It’s a member of a club that only accepts great, honest snuff takers. I made a single trade with @Pennanngalan last fall. It was fast and hassle-free. I’d trade with him again. I’m glad I can get Toque direct and I am grateful to have MrSnuff’s worldwide buffet. It seems the only hope I have of trying all the American ones I seek is through trading with people in other states, though. And no offense to anyone, but it’s a lot cheaper than overseas shipping.
@RailroadMills You just gotta poke around
Hey, there I am up there. Thanks, @Railroadmills I’ve always been honest in tobacco trades. But now… It feels great to be GREAT!
This reminds me of that scene in John Carpenter’s THE THING where they try to determine which of them isn’t human, and since no one has mentioned me yet, forgive me for what I’m about to say…
I know you gentlemen have been through a lot, but when you find the time, I’d rather not spend the rest of this winter TIED TO THIS FUCKING COUCH!
@Grant, I love that!
This is a better spot than where I posted before so I’ll add the names of the three individuals I have traded with, to date.
All were great to deal with and I would trade with them again: TerrapinFlyer, Mnzfam, and chefdaniel.
I’ve only traded with one or two people - from England - to get hard to find pipe tobaccos in the US. Germain’s Rich Dark Flake, Gawith Plugs, GQ blends. I’m too lazy - so I don’t generally trade. I did a little with @noisebox, but that was for a couple of FlipBoxes.
It’s a bummer it’s an issue - that people would take folks for a few bucks worth of powdered tobacco.
Funny you should mention the Wharf Rats, @Hitsuzen. As a one time friend of Bill’s (long story), the WR’s were (maybe still are) a group that had meetings at set breaks. I went to them for a couple years in the 93-94 range.
@DireWolf I first became aware of the Rats in 2004 (Wave Your Flag tour). At the time I thought they were kind of goofy, but as the years went on and certain lifestyle changes became necessary for survival, I came to really appreciate their existence. I stopped going to Bill’s house a while ago, but we’re still homies. Three years and then some.
@Hitsuzen - They were a needed escape in the 90’s when I wanted to go to shows, but had some growing up to do… You can stick with things knowing there is a group meeting at set breaks, and you’re getting things squared away. I’m not a friend of Bill’s either, but hanging out with him for a few years was exactly what I needed to get my head straight. The late teen years were a bit rough, but those were a long time ago. :))
Anyway - sorry about the hijack.
@Hitsuzen, @DireWolf I had no interest in the Rats before 95. I finally got sober in 2010 and hooked up with them at some Furthur shows. I stay as far away from 12steps as I can, but I had a “Friend of August W.” sticker on my car until I sold it last year. I was at East Coast shows 84-95. Were we at any of the same shows? Congratulations on 3+ years. I just hit 6 years last week. Now back to snuff talk…
@TerrapinFlyer - 90-95, mostly PA/Ohio. Not near as many, or as far flung as I’d have liked. The early to mid 90’s were a rough time. :))
@DireWolf I actually only saw shows in New England plus Saratoga and NY, NY. Vague road trip memories might include Philadelphia or Harrisburg, but I know I never *got in* to any shows there. I tried to catch the shows I could, but I would have tried a lot harder had I known that it would end when it did.
@hitsuzen I appricate the shout out man. I’m always down for a trade. Cigars and also snuff.got boat loads of both!
Just finished a trade with @TerrapinFlyer. Would definitely deal with him again. Good to know that there are still people who are good for their word. I mean, how pitiful do you have to be to rip someone off for a tin of $5 snuff?
@Tobe should be on this list too! Solid trader for sure, and better at spreading American scotches around than American Snuff Co is!
I second @Tobe for this list. I’d trade with him again, no doubt.
yup @tobe is great to trade with.
@SHbickel @TerrapinFlyer @snuffsahoy Thanks for the votes of confidence! Much appreciated. I also have to say that snuffsahoy is someone I’d be glad to trade with again. Thanks for the Madras! Off topic, but has anyone heard from @RailroadMills lately? We were supposed to do a trade, but he never responded to my request for a shipping address and I haven’t seen him around here for a while now.
@Tobe My apologies. Crazy month. Finals for college, 3 jobs I’m working, so many bills to pay off, and a couple family emergencies. I will send tomorrow.
Damn it, I can’t edit the list, or I would add @Tobe
I’ll add @RailroadMills to my list of the trustworthy.
I’ll second or third (not sure where we’re at on the number now) @RailroadMills.
Thanks! @Pennanngalan @Tobe and back at you both!
I ad @Tobe unfortunately my package did not arrive…
I just did a trade with @hitsuzen. No problems whatsoever. I wouldn’t hesitate to trade again.
Thanks! I was very happy with my experience trading with both @Psicko and @noidea1263 and look forward to trading with both again.
I have had successful trading with @llo and @Hawaiian_Ryan.
@RailroadMills It would be great if you were able to edit your list and put in the country the good traders are from. It would be very handy and save some of us quite a bit of money if we ship and trade locally rather than internationally. Just a suggestion
Aamon
@RailroadMills. I got a vote from Hitsuzen. If you want to add me, I’m from USA if you want to add the country.
Im from the usa. So are the ones I mentioned.
Simcatty was great to trade with.
Thanks for the compliment @llo. Same to you!
I completed a nice trade with Marielle32. She’s in the Netherlands.
I’ve not seen Marielle around for a while
Just completed a trade with @dan11
Excellent guy to trade with. We agreed on snuffs, a date to send our packages, and voila! It was done!
No hassle, straight on time, honest guy. Highly recommend trading with him if you’re in Europe (Outside of Europe may be a hassle considering the postage).
Just to reflect the above post, the trade with @Rogue went as smoothly as one could imagine. Snuffs delivered within 2-3 days between Ireland and Norway. I hope all future trades go this good. Thanks my friend.
Just received my package from @Dan11 he is a very honest and friendly guy ! Hope he will receive my package on Monday.
@TShaq is an outstanding trader and good dude. Would definitely deal with again.
@willc not only delivers but goes over the top. Also a cool and knowledgable guy
I’ll add Marielle32 to the list. I’ve just taken possession of a great little selection of pipe tobaccos she sent me, along with a few instructions for the novice pipe smoker. Thanks!
I’m going to add Toque snuff to the list. This was the first time I ordered directly from him. I had problems with my bank card and Roderick helped me so well and got the problem fixed. Awesome trade!
Roderick is a great guy @Llo, when you buy Toque direct from his farmhouse it’s really fresh and good. That’s the way to buy it for sure. I’ve bought and sold off and on here at SH, and everyone I’ve dealt with has been great. Honest and fair, and fast shipping.
I traded with @illini_mac8504. Definitely would trade with again.
Thanks @psicko, would definitely trade with you as well. I enjoyed those cigars.
Just did a trade with Hitsuzen. Excellent trade and everything went off with no problem.
Thanks, @JosephJames. If you like it and need any more, let me know. I literally have a stack of cases full of those tins. It’s one of my long-standing favorites.
Did some trading with @Badiker last week, and it went off without a hitch! Would gladly tease with him again, and in fact hope to do so B-)
I’d like to add @gilliat to this list. Recently did a deal via Paypal and it went perfectly. Nice communications too. Recommended anytime.
Dealing with @Hitsuzen was a pleasure and completely stress-free experience.
I highly recommend him and looking forward to trade again in a very near future.
Yep…I’ve sent and received stuff to and from @hitsuzen a number of times and it’s always been nice and easy.
Just confirming what others have said above: it’s been a pleasure trading with @Badiker.
Had a nice and easy trade with @ParlousState. Highly recomended.
As above Traded with @Badiker recently. More than grateful,will recommend to anyone and trade again in the future hopefully
For me Sixphoto in India.
I agree with Gokul. Vikas (@sixphoto) is a genuine guy and it’s a pleasure to know him.

@Hoffwell - very smooth transaction and pleasant to deal with
@larrysson - beyond words, seriously expanded my rare snuffs collection for almost nothing in exchange
I have to add a quick thumbs up to @spyder for being an amazing and *WAY* above average trader/seller. I could not be happier and wish all members were as upstanding as he is. Thank you and cheers!
Fast, easy trade with @spyder a couple of weeks ago.
Trying the snuffs @tobaccobob kindly sent to me. Tried 5 of them - Gekachelter Virginie, Ambrosia, Rustica, Elmos Reserve, Taxi Red. Buddy, now you got me interested in these. I think I might need to speak to Dave soon. Thank you so very much!
Don’t deal with any new member that don’t post in our fourm. I had offer to sell some and said he could name his price. he offered way too much then when I didn’t respond cause I wasn’t on the forum that day ,he gave me 24 hrs today to respond or the deal is off. I told him I don’t jump for anyone. I have a sneaking suspicion of the deal and happy with my decision.

Hi. My name is Jim and I want to buy some De Kralingse Limburger Tabak–any quantity, fair pricing offers. Please contact me if you have any for sale.

Hi, my name is Jim. I live in Arkansas (beautiful, lingering Autumns and Springs). I’m retired but still paint a litte (see The Brushworks Online on Facebook. I’m a lover of De Kralingse snuffs–especially their Limburger Tabak and would love
I can happily recommend @Effy. A gentleman in all respects of snuff trading, including having to wait an abhorrent length of time for my package to arrive (2 weeks longer than it took for me to receive his, even though we both posted the same day. The mail can be funny).
And @dan11, who was itching to send out a replacement within a short time of the package being given up as lost. Well packed and well recieved snuff
Trading with @Conk was a pleasure!
Never had a bad experience with members here when it came to buy, sell or trade. For the most part you can read people by what they print to be read as a post or comment and any photos shared including video.
Shout out to @skydog, wonderful transaction.
Thumbs up for @lieho, operative and responsible trader.
@volunge - Great guy, now buddy, who sent me two packed snuffs to try and couple of Tonka beans along with a handwritten postcard which I cherish the most!
Got to put a thanks in to @skydog a great person to trade with and a good communicator.
Nick
Big plus for @willynelson Wonderful to communicate with, excellent trader, and nice deal
SammyD13 great Guy Great trader as well hooked me up Good.and Honest.
@Remjob great communication and trade- went above and beyond
@Remjob goes above and beyond in trades. Great sense of humor, too
@SammyD13 is good trader
@ar47 is an even better one
Here to say SammyD13 is Awesome! And that Rogue is the Shizznatt!Straight up.Rogue is a true hardcore snuffer and connoisseur.Hail Norway for making such fine Gentleman but a Rogue nevertheless that I merely stand within his shadow when it comes to knowing the deeper understanding of Snuff. And SammyD13 is the Man with the plan to trade with!without a doubt Outstanding performance by both these two Fine Fine Gentleman.
