It's good to see some folks have enough $$s to do this!! I'm doin good to be able to order TWO tins of anything a month!! :twisted: :twisted:d4klutz":i6r7zl1a said:I ordered 10 tins, and then proceeded to fill the cart so i could get free shipping... grrrr Stinkin TAD. :lol!:
I am proud of myself, and did not place an order. I was tempted. Very, very tempted but I actually really do need to start buying less tobacco, oh and smoking more.Brewdude":s7r59ffc said:SOLD OUT @ 1PM PST.
No I didn't order any!

Ya I was sorely tempted as well, and was looking at what I could add to make the free delivery. Then I reminded myself that my discretionary spending needs to be directed in another direction for the present due a project I'm working on. Sure was a great price though.DrumsAndBeer":xmwifjt5 said:I am proud of myself, and did not place an order. I was tempted.

I wish I could get in on the free shipping deal. I pay $20 for shipping 8 oz and even with the exchange rate it's still alot cheaper than what I can purchase here with all the taxes. Oh well sounds like were still better off than alot of the places over seas.Cartaphilus":60ci1gmh said:And NO! I didn't order any. Almost but, after seeing that it cost just as much with shipping as I pay for it now I decided against it.
I have plenty now, besides I order once a month from another retailer with free shipping.
Our R/$ exchance rate sits at R10.74 for each and every dollar.Hawker":2ke5gr4n said:I wish I could get in on the free shipping deal.

It's the only one we can get in the UK so I'm more than grateful for DLNR but £6.75 a tin would be a dream let alone $6.75monbla256":zrtbswho said:.... glad there's Dunhill's Deluxe Navy Rolls. Same stuff, made by the same folks, Tastes and smokes the same though it is more expensive but it's ALOT easier to get ahold of !! :twisted: :twisted:
Don't follow that Michael. From my POV Escudo has been readily available for quite a long time on multiple sites.monbla256":ofw3o6ry said:These sort of "deals" make me glad there's Dunhill's Deluxe Navy Rolls.

I can't really make a valid comparison as to previous iterations of either blend as I don't smoke them often. ( my preference is for other VaPers) But I have smoked Escudo back when it was made by Cope Bros, and have had the 4 iterations of DNR from Dunhill through McConell, then Murray's and now STG/Orlik and my impression is all these firms did good jobs of maintaining the original profile of the blends. My recent experience with DNR vs Escudo ( last year I was given a tin of each ) was that I was smoking basically the SAME tobacco , just packaged in two different tins.

Now, I haven't had the Dunnie product so can't speak to experience there. I do see it's more expensive though. So my question to you is this - has it gone through the same change in quality as claimed by others here who smoke Escudo regularly?
