Linkie linkie - Just navigate their site until you come across the pipe tobaccos and select either domestic or imported to find a few of your favorite blenders

Pretty much any of their choice pipe tobacco selections seem to be around $1 under where I usually find them elsewhere. Not to mention shipping seems to be under $5 which, i'm sorry to say, beats the pants of PipesandCigars, at least when ordering a small number of tins as I think there is a set shipping charge per tin.

The link just takes you to their search page.

If I remember correctly, JRcigars has some good prices on tins, just not the best selection.

If you check out the McClellands, they have the anniversary and christmas cheer cheaper than anywhere else (assuming they are in stock).

Yeah, that's why I pointed out it would be beneficial to order off this site if you're looking for just a tin or 2. I compared 2 S&G tins from pipesandcigars and this site, and the final price was around a $6 difference, which to me is worth it. That's like a whole 'nother tin i could get!

Well, not just a tin, there's a minimum order. (not sure how much.)
Not bashing JR, I have spent thousands there on cigars.
Just sayin'.

I get my tobacco at pipesandcigars or smokingpipes
and always buy enough for free shipping.

Oh no problem at all I'm all about pipesandcigars but i just couldn't help in noticing the prices. I mean, i can get a can of HoTW for ~$10 where it would be more like $15 at pipesandcigars. Seeing how i rarely ever buy more than 2-5 blends at one time, i'll just keep my eyes on JR

Minimum purchase is $15, so i can still save ~$5 on 2 tins that would cost a little more on pipesandcigars. Though, since their selection is limited, pipesandcigars will be my staple site for quite some time

Re: Is it just me or are these prices pretty low?

Factoring in shipping for "large" TAD attacks, 4noggins and smokingpipes offer free shipping (upon $65 and $95 respectively). The latter also has some very good prices on tins and both of them ship it lickety-split.

JR is fine for some tins, but sometimes if I have a "large" cigar order truckin' its way over from them - I may toss a couple of tins in. Considering what I paid for the sticks, the couple of bucks difference is laughable

I quit doing business with J.R. when they started charging per piece shipping. Those charges really add up. I'll second smokingpipes.com. I get cigars here ----> http://www.bonitasmokeshop.com/

FWIW, Lew says that's built into the pricing.
