A couple of weeks ago I placed an order with you guys and when the order arrived there was a gold sticker and a code on the back, I was told that I won something and I was to get ahold of you guys on Instagram… I did. Yesterday I received my package, amazing! Thank you guys so much. It’s very appreciated.
Have a great week and enjoy your holidays
Sincerely

Besides the tobacco - your service is one reason I’ve been a Tinder Box fan for 60 years (I’m old…).  I knew Ed; the original Wilshire store was my store.

When I was growing up in California I remember Tinderbox was in
every big shopping mall. I was a teenager and would go into the
shop just to smell all the pipe tobacco in the glass jars. My favorite was the cherry almond and the one you sell smells
and taste great!
I like it so much I'm buying a pound of it instead of just a half
pound.

Hi Mary,

When we spoke, you asked me to do a review of the new Cherry Almond tobacco as compared to my old standard, Crown Royal.
Here are my observations:
Unlike most Cherry tobaccos, your Cherry Almond is not like smoking sugar and has very little bite. The aroma of both the tobacco and the smoke is milder and the smoke is much lighter and easier to handle.
I enjoyed Crown Royal and got MANY compliments on the smell of the smoke, from smokers and non-smokers alike. Haven't had enough experience with the Cherry Almond to comment as of yet.
The only criticism I've had on the Crown Royal is, my current lady friend says it leaves a "cigarette" smell in my beard. That's why I tried Cherry Almond, which doesn't seem to do that.
Both are fine tobaccos in their own right but I have a feeling this Cherry Almond will be a favorite going forward.
I hope this was helpful.
Thanks again for your attention,
Shannon C. (via email 6-4-23)

Dear Tinder Box,

It is always a joy to open the box from you all folks, it is always packed so well and there is always a little thank you note along with the invoice. It just makes me smile when I open the box. Thank you to all of you I’ll make buying from you such a nice experience.

Thanks Tinder Box!  I’ll definitely order from you again!

Your service is excellent. I ordered a box 3 days ago and I received it already. Not only that, your packaging is excellent too. You have in stock cigars I cannot find locally. You will be the first place I visit when ordering online in the future. Thank you!

Customer Service and Customer Appreciation
I have smoked a pipe since my Senior Year of High School. In the 70's The Tinder Box opened a store in a Mall in Charlotte. I thought I had gone to "Pipe Heaven" on my first visit. Today I order 1 lb. of Honey Maple from their web site, tinderbox.com In the package with the tobacco comes a note. This is with every order. This type of Customer Appreciation is a thing of the past. Never received one from Amazon or any other vender I order something from. It is both appreciated and keeps me coming back, to say nothing of the pleasure their product brings

Hello Tinderbox! 
I just wanted to let you know that by being so kind to me during
an Instagram exchange on the Foundation Cigars page, I just
ordered 4 Olmec cigars from you!
I explained to Nick Mililo that I can’t afford boxes of cigars
and rather buy individual or 5-packs. And someone at Tinderbox
was kind enough to tell me they would sell me a 5 pack or
singles! And I LOVE your shipping rates!
Looking forward to doing more business with you!
Thanks again!

I didn't know how to get in touch with you guys but what a great experience using you guys. The way the package came, the quickness, and (my opinion) having one of the best cigars I love in stock will keep me coming back to you for future orders. You have earned yourself a loyal customer. I don't know if someone will actually read this, but I would love an expert's opinion. I'm looking for something similar to the HVC 1st Selection Poderosos in flavor, value, and something you keep in stock. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated! 

Once again thank you,
A new loyal Customer

Dear Sir/Madam:

I’m a former customer [for many years] at one of your stores in the capital city of my home state but more recently moved to a small remote island off the eastern coast of the US. I ordered some pipe tobacco from your website earlier in the week and have been super impressed by the entire experience. The products were shipped the same day I ordered them and arrived within a couple of days to my home by USPS. I can’t tell you how many times I have ordered items from other companies and even paid extra to have them expedited only to have the fail to meet a standard for which I’ve paid more . In your case, you have over performed and far exceeded my expectation. The tobacco is very fresh and came sealed in a bag within a container for storage. I just wanted to say thank you for processing my order so quickly and exceeding my expectation having ordered the first time from your website. At a time when so many other companies  are struggling to get things right, you folks are getting it done extremely well.


Very much appreciated!

All the best,

WZF   (emailed) 8-25-22

I first tried your Captain Spice in the 70's while lining in Reno. I enjoyed both the aroma and how smooth it tasted. I have since moved from Reno, but was able to obtain Captain Spice at a local Tinder Box. The local Tinder Box was closed and I tried other tobaccos from other smoke shops, but they did not compare. I was able to obtain Captain Spice from the Tinder Box in Reno, as my children still live there. I was disappointed to learn that Reno Tinder Box was closed also, and went on line to see if there were any Tinder Box locations I can order from. to my dismay it appeared all Tinder Box locations had been closed. I tried other local tobacco stores and settled for one that was similar, but not the same. On a recent trip with some friends, I explained my dilemma and a friend found the tinderbox.com website. I immediately went to your website and placed my order. As I enjoyed  going to your Tinder Box locations to see your various lighters, pipe accessories, etc., I am happy I now can obtain the Captain Spice tobacco. Although I am an occasional pipe smoker and this will last me a long time, I am glad I now have a way to order more.

I must say, I was extremely impressed with my shipment. The packaging was great! I will look to Tinder Box for future purchases first.

Thank you for your response and looking into this matter. I absolutely love your pipes and they smoke so well. I think this is just a one of a kind thing and look forward to getting it repaired and with your service will definitely be purchasing more in the future.

Just a quick note to thank you all at Tinder Box for the excellent customer service! I received the North Sea Blend. It's just as aromatic and flavorful as I remember it being. Your thank you cards was most thoughtful

Take care & Happy New Year,

Thanks Mary for looking to save me a few dollars. They all add up. It is annoying that I need to rearrange my schedule to sign for pipe tobacco. But it is what it is. I'm a chemist who works 3rd shift so it's tough yo be waken in the middle of my night to just prove I'm over 21.

I've been a pipe smoker for decades and Tinderbox is currently my favorite. With you looking out for I really Appreciate it.

Hey guys, I just wanted to take a moment and say THANK YOU. Honestly, your customer service is like nothing else I've ever experienced. I placed and order Tuesday at 1:25 PM. At 2:00 PM I had a tracking number. At 3:42 PM it was accepted at the post office, and it was on my doorstep today.

I order a lot of cigars from a lot of retailers - no one does it like you. Just wanted to take a moment and let you know how much I appreciate it. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

I have been using Tinderbox for more years than I can remember and have had nothing but superb customer service from them. They always get to know you and seem to know your name when you call. They now ask me if I am ready to order my favorite tobacco before I am able to tell them. I highly recommend Tinderbox to anyone looking for pipes, tobacco, cigars or accessories.
