[QUOTE="onabullit, post: 141271, member: 1414"] The ebay FVF auction is mine. I never expected it to go this high, in fact it had an initial buy it now for $100, starting at $80. I'm not trying to inflate the crap out of the price, the bidders are doing that on their own. Ive also sold a few SG squadron leader 250 g boxes for 55-70 and penzance 8 oz from 50-60. I do really like these blends which is why I stocked up when I could find em, but doesn't make sense for me to hold onto this much bulk given that I only smoke a bowl every other day or so. And yeah it pays to be persistent and dig. I got that one pound box a few months ago for $45 from a B&M who did some online sales, also got 11 FVF and 4 SL tins the next day at another B&M. As for ebay blowing the whistle on tobacco sales... theyre making $ on it why would they. Only auction I saw em can was a guy trying to sell 6 oz stonehaven he had jarred from an 8 oz bulk. Kinda makes me wish I hadnt opened my 8 oz bag of the stonehaven as they also are fetching over 100. Great substitutes: Stonehaven - nothing like it in my experience Penzance - nothing quite like it... old ironsides, margate, latakia flake, all a little different. FVF - Union Square, dunhill flakes. Squadron Leader - Any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
