Some not so good news. Just got an email from Tamera at Uhle Tobacco Company and she was sorry to inform me that because of Michigan Laws she can't send retail orders to anyone in Michigan so I cannot buy Blend # 300 or as I wanted to sample some Black Stoker also.. So I guess I will have to try to contact a retail sales location in Michigan that handles it.. She suggested Two J's in Grand Rapids Michigan.. I will have to call soon to see if I can order these items.. Drat..

Did someone say "time to hoard?"

that's what I heard...

Smile

Makes one wonder what the controls for each state are moving too.. Like prohibition times in the old days.. One step at a time.. I think I have a cousin who lives around Uhle's But I shall check Two J's first.. Just had a another bowl of Redcake and it was yummy... Laughing

If they don't have it in stock, they may be able to order it under their re-sale lic. and have it " drop-shipped" to you to save a road trip.

I'm afraid we will continue to see more of this, increasing in strength, pretty soon. I visited a local parcel mailing/office services store today. The owner told me that due to new legislation (?) they won't be able to mail parcels containing any tobacco products. The only exception is cigars. Other tobacco products can only be sent through USPS. But I guess that will change too, from the way things are going.

That is interesting given that I just received a big old shipment from pipesandcigars delivered by the Brown Truck. I have another which is to arrive early next week, which has already been shipped. As far as I can tell, UPS is still shipping pipe tobacco just fine. Perhaps the franchisee of your local UPS Store was misinformed on the common carrier restrictions?

Velveteagle; check for a PM.

Drastic times call for drastic actions. Time to buddy up for a bump shipment between pipe men. Perhaps they can ship "overseas" to say Hawaii and then a brother can reship to Michigan. When there is a will there will always be a way. Brothers gotta take care of brothers. There are 50 states in this union and there are pipe smokers in all of them.

Thanks Stinger...
This is the first message I have had in the BOB for some time.. For some reason all the area's I have subscribed to do not give me updated posts.. I used to get email notifications of like what are you smoking etc.. But nothing anymore.. Settings are correct as far as I know.. Kind of a bummer cause you miss things.. Rolling Eyes

They can be sent by the merchant to customer, but not person to person, afaik.

Same with Uhles and shipping to WA state. They cannot use USPS but can ship UPS.
