Ok…time to fess up if you happen to be a member of this forum. I have been on the receiving end of several mysterious emails. When I try to reply the email is kicked back, so either it is fake or the sender has a full inbox. I will admit you have piqued my curiosity with all this talk of: ‘the world’s best snuff’; ‘made with only the finest most expensive natural ingredients’; ‘Spanish Jewel and F&T being inspirational’; and other hyperbole. If you are here, and you are interested, and if you will ship to the UK (if you are not in the UK already), then I will happily stock some of your purportedly wonderful grind and let fellow members decide if you are indeed the master snuff maker you imply, or if it is simply relabeled snuff from one of the big snuff mills. We know these things… Dave PS: if you are genuine, no offence meant. It is getting frustrating, that’s all.
Sounds bogus to me. Apparently this person doesn’t even know that F&T didn’t manufacture their own snuffs. The real composition of Spanish Jewel is still as much of a mystery as it ever was, unless somebody’s figured out something that Roderick, stitch, Pieter & I couldn’t.
I think you are being hoaxed, Dave. lol
Sounds like a hose job to me.
After thinking a bit more about it, it has Mateo’s signature all over it. The guy is sick.
Yep, he probably wants to sell Tuli or Tulu or Tutu, whatever that stuff was.
I’ve been looking for some Tuli.
Doesn’t he put out that awful Bru 45?
Haha…good theory. I did receive another email though, so clearly he is lurking at the very least. The cynic in me agrees with you guys, but the ever-hopeful-snuff-rules in me hopes this is for real. I will play it out till it dies a death (or otherwise) just in case. Here’s a couple of quotes from today’s email: ‘a jet black silky snuff with a unique aroma’ ‘Its very dark and very flavoursome and some of the ingredients are not available easily: for that reason I never produce anything more than a very small batch because its takes a lot of time and effort. As you asked my opinion, here it is: this is great snuff, but I’m afraid the amount I can make this year will again be small’ Notice this: his spelling of flavorsome/flavoursome. British spelling. The plot thickens. Dave
Maybe he makes Jaxons.
Quote “Maybe he makes Jaxons.” Now that made me laugh, and it hurts my aches and pains.
@SnuffHead, John where have you been?? Shit man, I’ve missed you and I was really worried about you! So glad to see you back again. Where’s Tony?
Here! Life has been far too complicated of late, leaving little time for posting
@ Pieter: They’re both drinking, just look at them.
.
I think there was thread on this ‘world’s best snuff’ here earlier, started by this mystery enterpreneur himself. ^5 bru!
And both of us in the St Johns
On Merrion St?
Hey, Welcome back @ermtony and @SnuffHead! I’ve been away too, good to ‘see’ the old crowd here again! As to the subject of this thread, I remember Mateo from before I went away and it does sound suspiciously like him or something he would do, and the email kick-back sounds pretty dubious. Surely someone legitimately offering a product would actually make sure they could actually receive replies from potential stockists?
Welcome back John and Tony! Stefan
