Buying cigars online?

    Does anybody know where I can get cigars online, I know of a few sites that offer worldwide shipping but not as cheap as US sites. Would one of those sites that gives you a temporary US address and charge you for delivery be worth the added cost? And what experiences have people had dealing with online buying, customs or declarations got involved?

    I just placed an order with these yesterday and found the pricing very reasonable http://www.hacico.de/

    they're advertising boli ce's at €206 a box - if they're genuine thats some bargain seeing as the ce's were deleted a couple of years ago.

    Just received my first Cigars from Cigar Terminal - a sampler costing €84.
    Just got hit with taxes of €75.90 because the box was labelled "Cigars". After having chat with An Post delivery man he said next time get box labelled "Gift" as they are a gift and theirs nothing illegal with that.
    So does anybody have advice on where to buy and they would do this?

    also can I get any of the taxes back?

    Seriously broke cause of this and worried sick as I have €400 worth of Humidor and
    asseccories and cigars from America from CheapHumidor.com.
    O God. Please help

    Certainly for outgoing mail An Post says that "Gift" is not an acceptable description. I don't know if that means something inbound which says "Gift" is more likely to be stopped.

    No. They are the taxes you were trying to dodge, you owe them fair and square.
