If you were to have everything in a one stop online shop, what would it be? Tobaccos, tubes, etc.

You see, I'm going to take a stab at an e-commerce site here real soon with hopes of obtaining a store front within a year. I want to make sure I have what people want.

I realize that you specified an online store. But, frankly to be "perfect"you would need a distribution system that allowed a person to run down to the nearest gas station and grab his favorite tobacco as consistently as they can a pack of Marlboro, Winston, etc.

Wouldn't that be nice?

Only problem is, it seems as though when distribution gets that large, it's hard to maintain the quality in the product you were looking for convenience with in the first place.

For me the best I've found is the tobaccostation and ryo tobacco (not ryo cigarettes)

since ryo tobacco warehouses and ships for tobaccostation it all comes out of the same location. I get my order two days after ordering and has always been perfectly packed so no damage occurs.
I did just order from D&R today and we'll see how they do.
But what I would like to see in an online store? A combination of tobaccos from all over the world, a combination of tubes from all over the world. Since that is not going to happen I will probably stick with ryo tobacco because we like the Sagamore long cut. But I do want to try some of D &R brands of tobacco as well.

I ordered from D&R on tuesday. Hopefully, it's here today. They're in NC and I'm in AZ. That plus Christmas time = possible delays, I would imagine.

I am also in Arizona and ordered from D&R on Wednesday. I know priority Mail coming from Texas to here is two days. I was going to hope that maybe one or two days extra from North Carolina.

As far as world tobaccos go, as long as it is a shag :-) I would be interested.
You should get your order at least a day before I'll get mine so post up here or e-mail me and let me now what you think. I linked my e-mail to this post
