Hmm it's great if you can find anything in stock you want, i went with a few tins of Crumble Kake.
I've always rarely ordered from them. But, after the fiasco of my last order from them, (a 3 week wait to achieve shipping and taking a prolonged attempt to talk to an actual customer service rep to get their butts in gear), I shall never order from them again.
I've always hated their shipping options, it always seemed they are looking to make a couple bucks off of shipping unlike other companies that have fair shipping prices / times. P&C's "free" shipping is like 8-12 day slow boat from china.
I usually don't go for sales that depend on certain prices on orders. I end up with items I don't want. It's my own damn fault, but it just never quite works out.
I've had acceptable service from PC, so I don't avoid them, but I have heard the complaints. For some items, they're the best source, as with Stanwell pipes and Russ' blends and some match blends. I really like my Stanwell pipes from PC.

I’ve had good service from them over the years.
I’ve had the occasional glitch with every vendor I’ve ordered from frequently but things were always fixed. YMMV.

It is a dysfunctional company.
That said, the only real screwups I've encountered (as a customer) were in my favor. Like the 10% BriarNation discount code that was actually a 100% discount. That was interesting.

I believe in the case of their screw-up with my order, I called customer service several times, hanging up after 20 minutes each time and then finally called and stayed on the line for around 45 minutes before reaching a live person who confirmed the company hadn't bothered to send my order out after 3 weeks and how she would e-mail "management" to send my order out.
I've ordered several times from them with no issue, however with the continuing litany of problems from other folks I choose to spend my money elsewhere.
Just got a coupon code in an order from P&C, not listed on their website:
$10 off orders $75+
$20 off orders $100+
code: SPRINGFEVER

I have more tobacco than I'll ever smoke because of this(these) sales from the past few years. Remember "Tobacco will never be cheaper or more available than it is right now!" (Generally, that is)
Pretty much anywhere in the states is 3-4 day shipping. The furthest place from P&C and only way you're getting 2 weeks shipping is if you live in Australia lol. Not sure what to tell you in that case
Never had a serious problem with P&C. One time they sent something I didn't order, and their packing is generally completely inept, but then so are most of the online stores, if it comes to that.
P&C bashing is a popular sport, and they earned it some years back when they converted their sales tracking system to an app from deepest depths of hell, something that took a couple of months and a couple of tortured coders to finally fix. Seriously crap software.
Other than that they seem little different from any other online stores. They just don't pretend to give a crap.
