It's only tobacco, good tobacco mind you. 2015 I'll be missing a lot, less than a pound left. McClelland still has plenty to offer but like everything good, it'll end one day, so enjoy and hoard it while you can.

It's a conspiracy to move inventory before floor taxes are due. In two months a new batch of "the right" red Va. will be discovered and production will resume. :lol:
Yep, though you run the risk of getting screwed by an unscrupulous buyer since you have zero protection through either eBay or PayPal because what you are selling is forbidden per eBay "rules".
I have some of the 40th on its way, as I bought a 5 more tins the day before it sold out. If you really want it, start checking with B&M's. There's still stock on shelves. You'll have to pay a few bucks more for it, but you'll have it to smoke.
It was a first run of tins. Now that that first run has sold out, there should be more down the pike.
There will be more dudes! This is like the 5th time it sold out just to be restocked. Take a breath, better yet, go smoke a pipe and relax. It’s been noted (officially) that they plan on keeping this one around. What’s funny is I’ve seen it on eBay going for $40 a tin while it was still on the shelves at SP and P&C. It was advertised as a rare, discontinued, no longer sold item... I emailed the seller and told him that it was currently in production (as if he didn’t know) and he basically told me to f*** off! Some people just suck.
The parallels between The Great 5100 Crisis and the various firearms/ammo shortage/ban scares that have occurred over the years are unmistakable. Someone sends up a flare that the sky is falling and before you know it, there's a shortage where none had existed previously. I have suspicions though that like the hi-cap mag scare and the ammo scare, and the AR scare, there will be a lot of people who paid way too much for something that will once again, in the none too distant future, be a commodity in good supply.
I second that. If a harvest comes in of that particular Virginia and there is an abundance of it; I see no reason why 5100 would not be re-introduced since it's such a fan favorite. Just seems like a good business decision.
I always tell my co-workers that President Obama was the best gun salesmen in the history of the US. Just by suggesting that Congress look at more gun laws after the unfortunate Sandy Hook incident; thousands of people freaked out and bought up everything they could (guns/ammo/magazines etc.). It was great business for tons of mom and pop gun shops all the way up to the big manufacturers. Plus it helped arm many citizens that acquired pistols/revolvers for personal protection/home defense.
