    Quebec Hikes Tobacco Tax Today.

    I agree, use the cheapest shipping method and be patient. In fact, I’m still getting about 1 order out of 3 coming through without duty. Finding by keeping the order small seems to increase the chances of it coming duty free…

    Returning to Canada with Tobacco: Receipts Required?

    That’s what I find when travelling down to the States from Canada. Never had a problem with 200 gr being claimed by myself and the wife claiming 200 gr. Caveat, that’s after minimum 48 hours in the States….

    Returning to Canada with Tobacco: Receipts Required?

    At the tobacco shop in Grimsby, Ontario they had some Capstan at $68 for 50 gram tin! A plain ugly brown tin with the dreaded cancer sticker on it. Oddly enough, unhealthy McDonalds French Fries come with no such warning….

    Proper Tobacco Shop in Los Angeles...

    My daughter and a friend are going to be in Inglewood for a few days in March. Would it be much of a drive for her to go to Tobacco Traders and do some shopping for me. We are up in Canada and it would be great if they could each bring back the 200 grams/ 7 Oz. allowed. I just don’t want her to...

    Quebec Hikes Tobacco Tax Today.

    Canadians, from your experience ordering from the US….which is a better choice, order tobacco from SmokingPipes and pay $5 shipping or order from say CupofJoe and pay approx. $20-$25 shipping and handling. In short, if stopped at customs would duty/taxes work out to be the same for either...
