Is Tobaccopipes.com Owned By Sutliff?

Not sure if this has always been the case or not, but I just sent an email to a TP sales rep I had dealt with in the past and received an email notification from postmaster@sutliff-tobacco saying the address was no longer valid. Obviously they no longer work there, but what stood out to me was the Sutliff email address

STC Holdings, a sister company to Sutliff now owns the major share. They moved their operation from Florida to Virginia.

Who owned it previously?

As long as they continue good service I don't care in the least who owns them.

Especially with those sales they've been having lately.

I believe they were a small, private shop prior.

It WOULD be nice to see them sponsor this Forum. They are a great company with great selection. TP and SP are my go-to online retailers but I must admit that I lean toward SP.com due to their sponsorship...

Where do you track this stuff? I'm interested in the business of tobacco, but I learn about it mostly by surprise.

Are you using the forum links to go to SP? It's how the forum gets credit for member purchases.

Multiple other forums. STC took over back in June.

Anyone know what happened to the previous owners?

Nothing for sure but I heard he was going to consult for them awhile.

I do but this is a good reminder for everyone.

Customer service is still exceptional. I placed an order on Friday. They emailed me today that 6 of the tins were out of stock. They asked if I wanted something else in the same range. I change the tins to ones that were $3 a tin more and told them I would pay the difference. They said sorry for the inconvenience and covered the change.

Ultimately, the owner is MacBaren, since they own Sutliff.

So TP is now owned by MB, as they own STC (not to be confused with either STGs), who makes stuff for WCC and SPC - but not the SPC, who like C&D are owned by Laudisi (acronym needed)

Had to double check my post, yes, STC Holdings.
