I only had a few pounds in 2012. The deaming threat kick started my buying then with progressive company and blend losses I was well stocked to deal with it.

Drive off it where? Mid ocean?off it. To drive off it. You know after you get tired of the wife and she takes her new care for a spin
Speaking of yachts I have always thought Aristotle Onassis had the best yacht. I believe he cut the top off a British battle ship down to the deck and then built his yacht super structure on top!
First comes Cigarettes and then Roll You own tobaccos, or vice versa, at least here up north in Scandinavia & Holland,( snus and those idiotic nicotine pouches in Sweden& Finland)Pipe tobacco is definitely the poor relation of the tobacco world. First comes cigarettes then cigars then a distant 3rd are pipe tobaccos. At least we can lord it over broke ass snuff
yeah thats how billionaires get "divorced"
Now MANY MORE can get spammed by their dogshit catalogs! And good luck getting them to stop!
But I love flipping through pages of the exact same blends with the exact same descriptions in a slightly different order every month!
There’s hope yet!
Glad I grabbed about 5 kilos of the leaves that are important to me from them Sutliff folk.
It’s a start…
And how else would I know that the old image of a professor puffing on a pipe filled with a latakia blend still lives on?
Zombie professor is awesome. And he's smoking capn black regular, that's not lataka you smell it's them (hard to be sure if he or she when that much of them has flaked off).And how else would I know that the old image of a professor puffing on a pipe filled with a latakia blend still lives on?
Just received order yesterday from pipes and cigars and they shipped my 15 tins of capstan in a larger than normal box with no wrapping or bubble wrap! The were just banging around like lottery balls! Thanks for the memories I’ll miss you
In this uncertain world it’s good to know that some things never change.
At least you received your order.
I ordered a 1lb box of ODF from pipes and cigars a few days ago. The website said they had 8 in stock when I ordered it. The next morning it said they had 6. Two days later I got an email saying that the item is on backorder and my order can't be filled. I get the feeling that they've sent that email many many times before.
I really liked tobaccopipes. I'm sad to see them go.
I don’t get it, wouldn’t prohibitions, heavy taxes, or strict regulations on cigarettes ultimately benefit pipe tobacco and cigars as niche hobbies in the long run?Pipe tobacco is definitely the poor relation of the tobacco world.

Except governments like to lump taxes on tobacco based on weight, not differentiating between cuts or processes. Because to them tobacco is tobacco etc etc
There is a learning curve to a pipe. Most smokers wont bother. Its especially difficult since they mostly begin with goopy blends that burn and bite when you dont know what you are doing.
That’s so funny. I actually enjoy the catalogs.
Not in the UK and places in Europe. Cigarettes and hand rolling tobacco is taxed far more highly than pipe tobacco and the UK government sets what the cut is for RYO versus pipe. Snuff has no duty on it currently.
That’s good for the pipe tobacco industry, right? It’s interesting how most people can’t usually differentiate between tobacco and pipe tobacco, often seeing cigarettes and pipes as the same thing. However, it’s reassuring to know that some European countries do make this distinction. I wonder if this is because of the strong pipe smoking tradition, particularly in Northern Europe.
