Thinking about ordering some cigerettes/baccy off teh internet. Just wondered if anyone's ever done it? What's the import tax biz? Is it legal? Any reliable websites??
Cheers

Might not be worth it if customs decide to check your package.

Did this once....forgot the site though, didn't really end up being much cheaper for 400 than if you would go shop.. like a extra fiver after pnp charge... Did 'shop around' too

In America, a cigarette is a derogatory term for a homosexual man.
This is in fact hilarious.

Does anyone else use the term 'Tabs' to describe cigarettes outside of the northeast?

I heard about an American Bass Player in the band the Wildhearts who are from Newcastle. He said on his first practise he thought the band were the most mental rock n roll band in the world because inbetween every song they would go for 'tabs' and he assumed they were taking frequent breaks for acid.

when I was a smoker I had done it before. but I was in the States buying within the States. Had no problems or anything but I don't know howd that would work for you & if customs would seize them or not.

I have a mate who lives in Spain, she sends me care packages of proper Spanish food, baccy and the odd box of cigarettes. Never been caught yet (touch wood), the parcel is always marked as a gift

My favourite phrase for scrounging tabs is 'here, gis beef off that'
yi cannot lose that way cos neeone wants to smoke the beef anyway, they normally throw it away before completion

I was buying smokes from an Indian Reservation before I quit...They were $1.50 a pack, and ALMOST as good as Camels...WAY better than any of the shitty brands you can buy in stores, though.....15 bux a carton!!!
