Does any one know, if de Kralengse snuff can be purchased in bigger containers, like 50-100 grams? And if affirmative - where? Thanks guys!
I don’t know if they sell it in larger containers, but you can make bulk orders from them. I plan on putting one in once I have my snus stockpile built up. I remember that when I looked, it was way cheaper than buying from vendors. I want a giant tub of the Chococremesnuif. That stuff is delicious.
@viking NO. I tried to purchase 300g of Choco and 200g of Chococreame direct from Jaap. He could not send bulks so he sent me a ton of his plastic dispensers with about 12.5g in each. I dumped them into a container I like using from Bed Bath and Beyond. It is the OXO with a single button on top and is air tight. Comes in many sizes. So, in essence I made my own bulks…
The problems are the Dutch tax and custom regulations. Selling to tobacconists outside The Netherlands have other regulations than selling to private persons. When selling to private persons in and outside The Netherlands and also to tobacconists in The Netherlands we have to put a tax seal on every unit we sell. The fixed price is on the seal and about two fifth of the price are taxes and duties. We have to buy these seals in units of 96. So you can imagine what we have to invest before we can sell one can of 100 g or 250 g to a private person. Jaap Bes.
Mars Cigars sells them from bulk (generally in smashboxes) You might order with them. They might also just send you 50 smashboxes full. Don’t know, might be good to ask. A couple of these I could fantasize about getting in bulk. Prins Regent and Macuba for starters.
Xander, the thing is that when ordering from a non-EU country the snuff might very likely get busted in customs, with fees and the rest as a result! :o(
Snuffmiller - That’s really sad! Because f ex in Denmark, we have no snuff sellers, and so my only option is to order over the net. And receiving 20 plastic containers is not an attractive idea. Aww how sad, I really like your snuff a lot :o(
Snuffmiller - I don’t understand that? What is the difference between putting 10 seals on one 100g can and putting one seal on 10x 10g cans? Same tax label right?
If it’s like cigarettes, it could be quite different. RYO cigarette tobacco, individual packs and cartons don’t get the same tax stamp on all of them. There could be a seperate one for each weight level.
shikitohno, You are quit right, there are even regulations how to glue the stamps on the boxes! If there is enough interest in bulk I will look into the matter of investment in tax stamps. Anyone who is really interested in buying bulk can contact me: info@snuifmolens.nl I’ll keep you posted about the situation. Jaap Bes.
@viking Not a big deal if you want the bulk. The caps come off quickly and then you can recycle the containers. That is what I did and I am happy with Jaap’s good service and great snuff.
around here we can only recycle plastic grades 1&2. My de Kralingse containers are 5s. I’d be happy to send them back to Jaap to refill if he wants them :0)
Mars sells there’s in larger smashboxes if you get more than 5g. I would not be surprised if they would order you a 200 or 300g bag if you want.

Bigbuyer> It will take more than even this wonderful snuff to convert me from using a snuff box to use a plastic container :o) he he he…
@viking I dump all of them into my OXO air tight containers and pinch from there, right out of the bulk! 
^^^^BB, now thats what I call a snuff box
@snifs That is my bulk boxes. The large on can hold about 200 grams or so and the smaller one around 100 grams. They never leave the house. They do refill smash boxes and snuff boxes. I do pinch from them too. Something about having a bulk. The snuff stays better I think.
It certainly does keep better in bulk though I’d be wary of pinching often from bulk as some moisture and flavour will be lost every time you open the container. I only ever open my bulk containers to fill a snuff box. That way the snuff will stay good for years.
Good to know because I have been wondering how fresh bulk snuff would stay as the bulk container went down. I know on tins that 80% fill is minimum to have it stay fresh.
