Thanks to all the hoarders who created this shortage and immediately it is sold out again because I get to save my money.

You think it was hoarders that caused Tobacco Pipes to sell out in 30 minutes or less? And are causing "this shortage"? You need to rethink that. SG shipping only once every 6 months or so might have a lot more to do with it but why bother considering the facts?
The SG will hit the other internet shops and will also hit B&M's over the next week or two. So if you decide you don't want to save your money, you'll have plenty of opportunities to spend it.

B&Ms here only sell vape now. So there. I think hoarding is now the norm, and the voice of reason will surely be drowned out. Even if those hoarding have already enough to supply 10 people for several lifetimes.

If you can't afford a 10 dollar tin of tobacco when available, then maybe you just shouldn't be smoking. When I started cellaring about 7 years ago, Gawith was readily available except for FVF. Since then, it has been pretty much been available with stuff occasionally out of stock. The current shortage appears to be a domino effect of people cellaring like mad after McClelland closed shop.

All interesting points, whatever the reason is, those who want will have to be quick. I learned that the hard way.

Was lucky enough to score 40 tins of St. James Flake before all the hoarders bought the rest up.

Was just looking for St James Flake.

Bam!

. And there are dozens across the country who have phones and will ship. You can call them or you could call a waaaambulance
And you have someone who bought 40 tins "before the hoarders bout the rest up." I surely hope that was tongue in cheek and meant as a joke.

If someone spent $400 on something that will sit in a cellar probably never to be opened is none of my business. I am lucky it was sold out otherwise it might have tempting.

 

[hoosierpipeguy]

You make an awful lot of totally unfounded assumptions.

Just stirring the pot and trying get a laugh! I did not buy any SJF, but I was happy to finally grab a few tins of 1792. Been looking for 1792 for many months to no avail!

Thanks, weedsnager. They even remove listings when they sell out of something, so there's no clicking through to dead ends. What a concept. Well worth a couple extra bucks.

Hmmm, do tell. If you quit spitting venom and cultivate friendships on here, you get tips for where to look. As far as hoarders causing immediate sell outs, I got a 1792 tip earlier today, and ten hours later after I got home from work I ordered this.

I took the advice and followed the example set from from experienced folk, who said stock up while I can. Best advice I ever took in relation to the matter.

Harris, Peck, Duane, Mark.... All motivated me to get focused on getting my cellar right.
I live in a country where the risk is extremely real that tobacco will not be available in any form, in the very near future - and I'm glad to nearly be at a point where I feel comfortable about my hoard, and have no regrets for having done so.
Im a hoarder, and pleased to be so!

I always find the ceremonial pissings from folks that missed a sale, tobacco drop or whatever, highly amusing. Must be tough living in a basement stealing your parents internet.

As well you should and glad to have helped. There's going to come a time when tobacco is either going to he completely unobtainable, or far too expensive to buy, and I'll never feel shame for stockpiling.

I hope the new forum software has a "like" button. I'd like your posts, Ash and Duane!

Some search the top three or four online suppliers and think it's gone. There are several other online stores not to mention B&Ms that still have it in stock.
