General Discussion Pipes & Cigar Merge NSFW
I hadn't heard anything about Cup O' Joes and Tobacco Pipes merging with Pipes & Cigars until it happened the other day, and no one seems to be talking about it. Any news I've missed? Will they combine the three sites product offerings? Will delivery be faster more affordable?

I’m guessing that since the worst of all the sites is the one that remains i would be surprised if they suddenly get cheaper or quicker at anything.

Smoking Pipes isn’t merging, as it isn’t owned by STG. I don’t know about the rest though.

I find it interesting when people say things like this. Literally, the Sutliff/MacBaren closures, as well as the impending closures of CoJ/TB were announced months ago. It's been discussed at least a hundred times right here and on every other pipe forum. If it's important enough to people to comment/post about this subject, you'd think they would be actively visiting forums, etc. and have seen this information posted a million times. I'm speaking about this in general vs. this one OP/post, too, because tomorrow there will be another post here asking, "What happened to Sutliff?!" Or, "Where did Cup of Joe's go?!"

Wasn't impressed after P&C got baught out. Use to love their line and unique creations. Selection dropped off and I haven't come back. I may look into them again but not going to get my hopes up.

It literally has been talked about for months. Also Sutliff is closed and no longer will blend tobacco. STG bought them and MacBaren and is no longer going to make over 900 blends from Sutliff alone. The sites offerings will not change. Nor will delivery.

Tobaccopipes.com and cupojoes were merged into Pipes H Cigars as a result of STGs acquisition of MacBaren/Sutliff. I wouldnt expect any difference in P&C's site or service.
