CupoJoe's wants $51.16 for a 250 gram box of SJF. I think not. I'll wait.
 
JimInks exactly, it can usually be found at the small online shops, which means way too high. They'll sit on the shelf ageing for years,  that may be worth it.   :lol!:  The tins are hard to come by, though I did hit a one day sale six months ago, called them and took all they had at $6.50.  :bounce:

St. James at Smoking Pipes, limit 8 boxes per customer. Better hurry!

No, but that is under the consignment tin section (he's selling the tin for someone else). When Rich gets legitimate stock in he charges regular rates, so no need to panic :)

Yep, Pretty flaky operation. They don't update there site and let you order something they don't have, then make you wait to get your money back.

It's only one guy there. Before ordering, call him to check availability. That's what I did.
It turned out that there's only one bag of Penzance, and I called because there was no option outside US. I called for assistance how to order, and by the way I asked whether it's available, it turned out there's only one bag.
Also, there was only one tin of BS, and now there isn't anymore because I've ordered it.

There's option however to order as much as you want. No quantities update. You better check to be sure.

Gees! It didn't take long before someone seen my post before I deleted it.
I retracted my statement because I was thinking or another site with a name close to it.
In others words "Never mind wrong place!"  :fpalm: 
 
Every time I get this update, I hope to all that is dear Penzance, Stonehaven, Margate, and/or Peacehaven are back in stock. I've yet to get my hands on any of the above for sometime because this stuff is hoarded to the greatest degree possible. Being half-way across the world and 8 hours ahead doesn't help the situation.
 
Watch City is a great company. They have some excellent house blends, if you like VA/Pers I'd recommend their Flake 556 (which is really a crumble cake, not flake). Great stuff.

It's never going to be "in stock" at the prices they are selling it for. It sells out before you can reach for your wallet. Just a fact of life and market conditions. I don't really care; they're not the only game in town.

One brother here (doody) ordered from Watch City and vouched for them and their in house blends.
