Jay wrote: Good luck in finding an online distributor that charges free shipping for cigarette cartons. Even with the shipping included in my own orders, 35 bucks for a carton is still cheaper than paying 60 bucks on a single carton. No typo. With the recent cig tax increase here in Illinois, I now live in the U.S. city with the 2nd highest cigarette pack prices.
If there are any other online tobacco shops that don't charge for shipping, I wonder how that shop is able to maintain cheap prices without forcing customers to pay for carton taxes.
We'll soon know why shipping is no longer free - I just now e-mailed yesmoke. |

| I've ordered couple of times from smokelounge.com and so far experience was positive. Found them here by the way. They don't charge anything for shipping and their prices are lower then at yessmoke.com, at least for the brand I'm smoking - Marlboro. They deliver from Europe and sipping time can be long, once I had to wait for about 3 weeks, but hey - for those prices I can order ahead to make sure that I will not run out of cigs untill next order. |

| Do you know by any chance where those cigarettes are made? And also, if they are not made here - are they very different in tast? |

Yesmoke should change their name to YESJOKE.
I placed an order back on MARCH 20TH, and received absolutely nothing from them. All they do is tell me to wait another few days and they'll "send me another carton". Why, so I can wait another month+ for nothing?
This place is BS and now they are charging shipping. The BEST source, which usually only takes 2 weeks to get to me here (Idaho), is mcity1.com or mcity4.com - most major brands are $15 a carton and there are no shipping charges. If your bank is full of sh*t like mine and banned transactions with Jumbomall (mcity's parent company) you can email them your credit card info and place the order that way.
Good luck! |

Dude,
It's obvious that mcity is your site. You get the cigarettes the same way that yesmoke does, but the only difference is you don't have a direct connection with cigarette suppliers. You have a third party site. It may be very good for now, but what happens when your company or your parent company folds. All those orders on your books just don't get filled, and you or your parent company keeps the money. That's just the reality of that business, so I'd just stick with companies that have been around like yesmoke or the New York Senacas. |

It is "my" site in the sense that I find them the best to order from, certainly. It is NOT "my" site if you mean to imply financial interest or anything like that - I am just a customer. I have been ordering from them for just over 2 years now so I don't think they will be going anywhere soon.
By the way, YESJOKE refunded me today, 38 days after I placed my order - still no smokes and I'll have to wait god knows how long to actually have the money credited to my card, but we'll see. I would avoid YESJOKE until they can actually ship within a decent amount of time. |

| You're full of crap - you won't even create a real account to post with. I've ordered from http://www.yesmoke.com lots of time with no wait and no problem. |

| I agree, Yesmoke is a trustworty company. I know I was leery of ordering cigarettes from overseas, but I have been generally pleased with Yesmoke's service. The only problem I have had was when I received 4 counterfeit packs of Marlboro Lights, the ones from the Philippines. The other six were good though, and Yesmoke gave me a refund for the carton. So I count as a satisfied customer. Their new order regulations stink though. |
