Mars has been around for donkey years and is one of the earliest online pipe tobacco retailers (as you can tell from the site design and antiquated prices). Mike Rutt owns the place and he is very responsive to emails.
Yes. Trust the person and things will go well. I have purchased from similar sites before and things have indeed gone well. Of course I placed an order myself before publishing the tip.

Mike doesn't typically announce his Germain's/Esoterica postings but one time I lucked into a fresh update and scored big time. So, I've a great fondness for the site. Of course, I've not had the same luck since!

They're great and I also have to give them the local big ups. They're from not too far from me. They used to have a good Brick and Mortar store too. But almost no issues and the few got fixed really easily. Heck even the one that was totally my fault they fixed with grace so only issue is their pipe selection is kind of weak.
