Anyone From Toronto?

[sarmen25]

if so, are there any cool pipe stores to check out? or maybe a pipe group or something?
since i am 30 years old, it's quite hard to find people who smoke pipes....so just curious!

I work in toronto at least part of the week but live outside Toronto. There is apparently a downtown toronto pipe club. Google and ye shall find. As for stores, nothing I would call interesting. Thomas Hinds in Yorkville has some, but it's primarily a cigar store. Same for Smoking Cigar in the Bayview Eglinton area.

I'm from Oshawa, we're having our first pipe club meeting in Oshawa tomorrow, I contacted Eric and they basically meet during the warmer months.

Hey its great to know there is a pipe club in Toronto. Your logo looks great. I am from Northern Ontario but my sister live's in Toronto. Maybe I could try & fix things up so that I would be able to attend one of your meetings when I go visit my sister on some weekend this summer.

 

[brdavidson]

Sorry I should clarify, my club is the Durham Region Pipe & Cigar Club. But I will definitely agree that their logo is great. But if you're interested in driving a little east than your more than welcome.

I live in Scarborough.

Brassonly where in Northern Ontario are you from?

 

[pruss]

I live in Scarborough.

Well then MzPuff you should come out to Oshawa tomorrow night. It's only a hop, skip and a jump away. brdavidson is coordinating with our B&M in Oshawa, which has a commendable selection of pipe related paraphernalia. I'm in ajax and will be heading east for our gathering.

The only Tobacco shop I know of for pipes, cigars and tobacco is Walper Tobacco in Kitchener. I went there once, didn't buy anything. It's way cheaper to buy from 4noggins.

Believe me, I was very interested, but can't tonight. I'll do my best in the future. Hopefully things go well for you. Good luck and have fun.

Victory Cigars, Smoking Cigars, Walper, Cigar Studio, and Thomas Hinds all have a relatively good selection of pipes and tobacco...CANADIAN PRICES AND SELECTION (if you know what I mean). If you look hard enough, there's enough in Toronto to get you what you want.

Thank you gents,
I will try to make it out on the 28th, I'll have to check my work schedule first.

There is a very reasonable selection of tobacco @ canadian prices at a shop called " CHEERS " in downtown toronto on mc caul street north of dundas st west side about 1 block north of dundas st- he is a bit terse but lowest prices in toronto - semi reasonable selection for a canadian store -
cheers NOT usa prices @ 30+tax canadian compared to 10 usa from above posts.

cumberland is a nice guy to deal with but cumberland-ish yorkville prices

bayview clueless about pipes & tobacco - mainly cigars & gentlemens accessories for a guy who has everything type of shop
regards to all

buy from usa just watch the 200 - 250 gm limit & yes pipes ship separately.

Americans often ask me whats going on up here regarding prices - - yesterday i bought about 90$ tobacco from the first guy on my above list.

when i asked for a plastic bag to carry the tins as i use a cane & pockets were full they asked for 5 cents for the bag - about a year ago toronto tried to eliminate bags in land fill so all were charged 5 cents all over toronto & supposedly it was remitted to the city somehow - didnt work & was cancelled but some still charge & keep it- i guess 90$ for 2 100g tins was not enough - its called gouging - EH ( canadian expression - horrible ... eh
