They were in NY for many years.
I believe 4-5 years ago they moved to PA.
Actually, Pipes and Cigars have been in PA at least since 2011, when I first started ordering from them. Russ lives in PA also, and he used to run the shipping part, as well as making blends for Hearth and Home. They also used to be a sponsor here, till their shipping department fell apart. Is there a chance you may be thinking about a different company?

No, but it may have been longer ago.
It was 100% P&C but was probably much longer ago.
Heck, I tell people my 29th birthday is coming up next week......I was born in 1971.

I just found it on this very site.
They started shipping from Bethlehem PA in April 2013. This article is from April 16, 2013.

They must have been breaking the law then haha, cause I actually started smoking in the Fall of 2011 (my freshman year at college) and P&C was the first place I ordered from and they still advertised their location as being in New York state and they did not charge the legally required PA "intra-state" tobacco excise tax. This is a tax I don't have to pay from out of state purchases like SmokingPipes but do now from P&C Based in Bethlehem. Their acquisition and move was between 2013 and 2014

@Sig @NookersTheCat
My bad then, but I could have sworn that I had ordered from them before joining here. Anyways, I'm glad that we cleared that up. puffy
Not at all, I didn't see that Sig replied until after I did haha
Him and I are just more intimately familiar with it being from both of the states in question, respectively 😂👍

It actually is a core memory of the start of my piping journey lol

I swear I have eliminated the 7 years I stopped smoking a pipe.
From 2017-2024 I didn't smoke one pipe.
So, if you eliminate those 7 years, my 4-5 years was spot on. :)

Just kidding, I'm just a dumbsss.

I'm pretty sure that it is a requirement of becoming a member here. If you don't click the "I'm a dumbass" tab, it immediately dumps you out into the smokingpipe's "finalize cart" page puffy
How ironic.
I literally just punished myself for this thread by ordering a Peterson System Standard Rusticated XL315 and a couple tins of this Blood Red Moon everyone loves so much 15 minutes ago. :)

It is funny bc you never know what you don’t know. Living in NY I ruled out ever buying tobacco from Cup o Joes bc of the exorbitant excise tax. I don’t know how long they were in VA before I knew it. I never actually bought from them before Sutliff was disbanded.

I had that first experience with P&C back in.....who the hell even knows!!
Sinse then I've heard some pretty bad feedback about them, so I stay away.
If I can't find something at Smoking Pipes, Mars Cigars or WCC....I don't need it.

Or ebay :)
