Hi, I would like to offer camel cigarettes of any kind for sale. I am offering a pack of 10 cases with 20 cigarettes each for 16 + shipping in bitcoin.

If you’re interested in any specific brand let me know. I can’t get cheap marlboros

Edit : Some people may be confused with my wording. You would be buying a total of 200 cigarettes. A box of 10 cases each containing 20 cigarettes. 1 box * 10 cases * 20 cigarettes = 200

Add: Also offering Marlboro red/brown now also for the 26 + shipping

Where are the shipping from?

The price wouldn't matter but the shipping cost must be more expensive than the total price.

If you look at his post history I think he come from Colombia and yeah even if he offering really cheap cigarettes the shipping cost around the world especially if the destination far away from the shipping origin would become a really matter.
That kind cross nation sales mostly failed due the shipping cost problem, people would prefer buying $20 cigarettes per pack in the nearest store rather than $10 or $5 from you that could possibly cost more than $20 per pack due shipping cost , tax (if any) and of course it takes a long time to ship it.

This business model is unlikely happened, unfortunately. Unless if you offers something special that we can't find it anywhere but there in your place.
So do you have any special offer on this sales?

For the ones who are interested with this product you must remember that importation of goods related to vices have different laws when it comes to our customs and you might not even receive the products you have bought from OP because it will be blocked by the customs immediately. If it ain't blocked then chances are your taxes will be considerable with all the tariffs and related cost for imported goods. Just try to calculate if you will really save something or spend more at the end because shipping imported goods is no joke.

Yes for anyone that wants to buy you should check this in your country. In most countries if it’s for personal use and under $X amount you won’t be charged. For example, Switzerland has a certain amount their citizens can bring in to the country tax and duty free ( 400 francs if I remember correctly).

They are allowed to bring when they travel into their country but for shipping process I don't think they will let this without taxes and I guess it will increase the expense into double if anyone buying cigarettes from foreign countries with strict regulations on bringing these things into their country.

I think it is less effective if buying and selling cigarettes online, what's more buying and selling between countries, I once tried to buy cigarettes online, after calculating the shipping costs, I will not get a profit and even loss, the price is only a little difference with the cigarettes around me.

Of course as what the reply above says it will need to pass the customs and they are very strict in receiving products inside the country or those in and out of the product. Unless, if you are hiring direct shipping just like backdoor transaction which obvious illegal. Cigarettes now are getting expensive and having a high demand in the market. If someone will carry this to get into the country you can sell this into a retailed price that based in your country.

By my understanding of his thread the whole point of OP's product/service is for shipping purposes and I don't see any people trying to "travel" in another country just to save a little bit on a discounted price for cigarettes because technically you aren't saving anything at all considering that you are also paying tickets for your plane to travel. Sure this will be a good idea if you are in the same country as the OP but I don't think this is intended for customers outside of their jurisdiction because for people outside it they will just be incurring additional cost just to bring it back in their country.

I didn't said that we have to travel to his place and buy cigarettes from there,I meant to say that countries will allow you to bring certain amount of cigarettes while you are travelling into that country but it won't be applicable for a shipping products,for thins like cigars the custom duty tax will be high so his discount will have no meaning if we have to pay more taxes for the same product which can be bought from our own country much cheaper.So OP needs to make clear about the custom taxes for his product which also included in his price or not.

Guys please only comment if you’re interested. To the guy saying that they would only save “a little” on cost, what country sells 20 pack cigarettes for $1.6

You can buy a pack of cigarettes in Ukraine for less than a dollar :) Or around a dollar and a half in Belarus. Smuggling significant amounts of cigarettes (>200-800) to the EU is another matter. If you won't charge too much for shipping it's still a very good price to pay if someone lives in a country where cigarettes are expensive.

For countries where cigarettes were expensive can go with this service. In my country it costs $2.5 for a pack of cigarettes, a pack of ten. This means quite expensive. By the way if I ship and get it'll cost me with shipping and additional to the same I'll be supposed to pay taxes which won't be profiting.

If OP is from Colombia, I doubt that shipping will be cheap. And I'm wondering how it would pass customs. Here in EU, it means that cigarettes are from third part country, so probably you would have to pay taxes. And you're allowed to get only few packs of it. So after, with all shipping fees included, it would cost you more expensive than buying in local supermarket.
And yeah, cigarettes in your mentioned countries is very cheap. This is why hal of my country smoke smuggled cigarettes from Belarus :D.

I can buy a pack of low quality cigarettes for .50 in my country. Camel and Marlboro deliver upper middle quality.


I SHIP FROM COLOMBIA and MEXICO

Yeah, that's very cheap. Cheapest I have seen was $0.70-80 in Ukraine for a pack of shitty cigarettes with no filter.

Do you know what's the shipping price for 1 carton to the EU?

Dunno how dutyfree.io does it but they ship worldwide for like 5$.

They charge 2.5x what I do. Shipping is $15 usd to Madrid

Yeah but their shipping is 5$  :D Free on orders over 50$.

So your offer is 16+15 = 31$
Their Camel is 39.97/carton

That's a very good price!
I'm unsure how it would pass through customs o.o
Good luck with your business.

Thanks

Can you source brands from any country ? I'm seeking something from Asia that I never re-found - PM sent.

Guys please only comment if you’re interested.

there was no intention, sorry if it looked that way. And having a competitor is a healthy thing on the market.
Good luck.

PS. a quick story how dutyfree wanted to promote their site here using my thread - they watched people who answer in my thread and PM all of them a coupon for 15% discount on their site. One of my clients showed me this so i posted this coupon code in the open. After that they deleted it))
