The best online retailers to buy pipes and tobacco from are SmokingPipes.com Pipesandcigars.com and cupojoes.com.

i heard about the Uk are better, its that true?

I have no idea what you mean by that, but welcome to the forum.

Certain pipes, like Petersons are much cheaper in the UK. A pipe that would cost me $120 at a US online store is only $68 at a UK shop. Add shipping, and it's still cheaper.

Ah now I get it never mind.

From what I have seen its not cheaper about the same price.

The sponsors of this site are always good.

Welcome hermano!
I tend to stick with 4noggins and smokingpipes.com.

I've bought a pipe from tobaccopipes.com - they have good prices, not sure they ship international - it's too bad they don't carry tobacco.

This certainly depends on what you're looking at, how much you peruse the site and other vendors, and what you mean by "about the same price." As for the latter, for me, a small difference can mean a lot.

I was referring to UK vs USA pricing.

For online site vs online yes major differences. You really have to watch the shipping charges.

From what I hear from my brothers to the north 4noggins followed by smokingpipes are the best international vendors. I deal with both of those companies and when it comes to customer service and price, there really is no one better. When it comes to pricing, I look at it this way, every 10.00 I save is a free tin of tobacco so I am extremely price conscious.
PC does not ship internationally anymore from what I understand.

For tobacco, I've begun to take the majority of my business to 4noggins.com. I'm in the US, but I hear good things about their international shipping.
However their pipe selection is a bit spendy, somewhat limited, and their descriptions aren't so wonderful. So for pipes, I'd go with smokingpipes.com

+1 tobaccopipes.com. Good pipes, good prices, good service.
