@StayPufft If you're going to go head first into the pipes and tobaccos world (and no one here would blame you), it might even make sense economically to get a US mail box in Buffalo. It would be cheaper to drive there, pick up your pipes and tobacco at a huge discount and drive it home. Not entirely serious but, as an ex-Torontonian, I know the pain of provincial taxes and customs. Anyhooo ... welcome from NYC.
If I lived closer to the border, this is precisely what I would do. Mind you, with the rising costs of gas, you may not want to do that too often haha
Well of course if you came into Michigan to pick up your tobacco, then you could fill up your gas tank as well… ??
Yet even with the duty it is cheaper than buying at a local tobacco shop (at least it is in Saskatchewan). Criminal is the correct word
You'd have to spend 48 hours outside Canada every time, no? You may not be entirely serious, but I might be. I'm trying to get my head around the regulations. I'm not too far from the North Dakota/Sask border (at least I won't be when I move next month). I'm waiting to see if I get dinged on 4.5 ounces from SP. If I do, I will become even more serious about the cross border trip.
