Great stuff...
With these two, one could easily make his own pipe and cigar blends and roll yer own. Love the cigar rolling gentleman - down to earth, practical and darn if he doesn't roll a decent cigar using simple methods, no expensive presses, et al. As he puts it, he can make a $10 cigar for about 20 cents!
Since tobacco is grown worldwide, I've got to believe the leaf tobacco must be available from someone. Are there any Aussie pipe blenders?

These guy talks a lot of rubbish but in amongst his verbal diarrhoea are nuggets of gold.

If I was in Australia, Jimbo I'd have little problem sourcing or growing my own. Here in Germany though it's a whole different barrel of monkeys. The climate is just not conducive to tobacco growing without at least a partial grow indoors over winter and autumn. Then the quality would have to suffer I'd guess (probably, maybe, I think). Importing leaf from outside Germany would be fraught with risk. Customs here are brutal.
So effort vs outcome.
