chinamon Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 the best method to get tobacco for any canadian is to order from the USA.to get your money's worth, you would have to order at least 3-4 tubs at a time due to the shipping costs but it is still worth it.

jfaltous Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 You missed tobacco tax at the border, which weighs in a bit higher than the PST amount iirc... i think around $0.25 a gram or something crazy.HOWEVER... use the right vendors, they know how to mark the package as a gift, with a reduced value, coming from an individual (not a business), and not mentioning tobacco. I usually order 5+ kilos at a time and never pay a penny for any of those things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erufiku Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Yea the government needn't bother posting the duties outline... the website should say "Bend over. Warning: no lube will be used" to better reflect reality.To answer your question: I order from MNH and hookahjohn, no trouble with the man yet.

jellywerker Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 How cheap is this stuff to mail once you're in Canada? Cause I go up there a few times a year plus I only live a few hours away, so I could take it through the border personally and mail it off from a Canadian post office. I'll make a post this summer when I am available with more details, but I feel like it's the least I can do when I hear about Canadians paying $60+ for a 250 of AF.Disclaimer: I can't do this now, but I'll be free to in a few months.

Shipping prices would be around 20$ with CanadaPost, depending on the size and weight, but it's still a good price if you can send a few at a time.

brownwarriors Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Here's my problem I ordered it, and sent to my P.O Box in the States. I asked my friend to go pick it up, and so he got caught, and essentially he left it there and it had to picked up by december 2nd. I'm going back in a few weeks to go pick it up, should i, send it back to myself, labeling it as fruit mollasses, or should i send it back to the company (alfakheronline.com), or should i just bring it back in the car?
