Hi, I used to post on here fairly regularly, a few years ago now. I'm in uk and am trying to buy some cigars, can't get them in uk. And cigarpage won't ship to uk.. wondering if any of the lovely people I used.to deal with are still here. Or anyone else who wants to help me out, of course I wouldnt expect it to be for free.. please message me if you think you could help a desperate man in need!! Good day all.

You can't buy cigars in the UK?! Seriously?
 
Yes, cigars are available for purchase in the UK. You can find them at specialist tobacconists, both online and in physical stores, and even in some larger department stores like Harrods and Selfridges.

Now I’m confused. Maybe the internet is wrong?

Hi, well.. cigarpage for example.. has some deals that equate to about 4.5$ a cigar.. they would cost me 30£ in uk.. so a bundle of 20 is 89.99$ free shipping..in uk that would set.me back 600£ or 810$ !! So 9 times the price.. some us sites will ship to uk.. cigarpage does not, also there are alot of cigars you cannot buy in the UK at all that cheap in us.. typically a retail order of 100$ would be marked as tobaco or cigars. Uk customs sees that, and they will likely weigh the package (packagig as well as cigars, charge something like 450£ per kg as cigar taxes, plus an import fee which i belive is between 20 and 50% and then handling and admin fees.. so I've heard of people order 10 sticks from neptune cigars, less than 100$, customs seize it and add over £300 on top! I had a person who had helped me in the past.. , who had a friend in us, who would order them, send them marked as candles, or gentleman's supplies, 15$ declared value and 9 times out 10 would get through.. but. Now he's making it more like a business. So. Wants to make 60£ on the deal as well as his us contact.. so the 89$ package (67£) he wants me to transfer £260 .. which irritates me to pay as I know know, it's 67free shipping to whoever in us, admittedly plus taxes depending on the state. Shipping to uk expedited would be about 40£ so all in their costs couldn't be more than £130 give or take.. so if someone could help me, there could be some cigars in it for them or some money for their troubles, plus of course the immense satisfaction they would get for doing their good deed for the day and sticking it to stupid bloody lifestyle taxes!!!

Hi, sorry it is specific cigars I cannot get in uk, and from cigar page which do not ship to uk.. on top of that. Customs would add about 300% taxes on top of order price at customs if sent retail and declared as tobacoo.. inhave ordered some cigars in uk, but for example. 1 drew estate cigar I purchased which was on sale and on offer at the time in uk was £30. A deal in us had 5 of these at $25.. so i should have written it as, certain cigars you cannot get in. Most shops don't ship to uk. And if you just buy cigars in uk they range between 3 ton5 times the cost.
