too much and I think you know who you are. It's like a Jeff Foxworthy joke... “If you have more tins in your closet than most Brick & Mortars have to sell, you might be a tobacco hoarder.” But it's not all that funny to those of us who can't ever seem to buy any of these beloved blends and flakes. I love Pelican, have for years, but it's also been way too long since I came across a tin to buy. Maybe it's not coming back. I hope it does. I understand cellaring tobacco, I even do it myself. The difference being I don't hoard tobacco like the end of the world is nigh, accumulating more than you could ever need. All too often when I'm searching the web for a favorite I get results that are in someone's cellar and unavailable for the rest of us. Anyone who keeps checking knows which ones we'd love to get our hands on just one more time. There out there, just already owned by others. Then there's the Dunhill & McClelland departures, and I know it wont be long and they'll be stashed away too. I do alright, but obviously there are some out there buying hundreds of dollars worth when these tins are in stock intending to make a fortune reselling them on eBay who never intend to smoke them themselves. If you have a cellar full of tobacco you intend to smoke or use as trade, great, but if your cellar is more of a stock room? I'm all for capitalism, but these middle-men are just jacking up prices. Let's not confuse Supply & Demand with Demanding Suppliers. Kudos to Smokingpipes.com for limiting amounts, I think buying 5 or more tins at a time is being a bit greedy, especially with limited productions. I know some pipers who'll fork over a small fortune on eBay, but that's not me, especially when there are so many tobaccos that are available that help keep the sanity. If you can get yourself a tin of Pelican, it's a wonderful Balkan blend and I hope you go ahead and crack it open to see for yourself. It's like having a hot rod that you never take out of the garage. Some things in life are meant to be memory makers, not simply dust collectors. I hear you, I “should have cellared more (myself) years ago and I wouldn't be in this mess”. Aargh. UPDATE: I just want to say the pipe smoking community is full of great people, many who go out of their way to help fellow hobbyist, and where and when they've helped me, I am truly thankful.
