Cigarette prices
 

So. I have a friend who has just been on holiday and he brought back a sleeve of benson and hedges and a sleeve of L&M.

Now , he doesn't smoke.

So what kind of price should he sell them for over here ?

They are £6 - £7 a packet in the shops BUT the overseas ones taste pretty awful. So say £30 for 200.

Depending on what country they come from.....yes they can taste vastly different.

However, for most brands the tabacco is usually refinned in very few locations, with each country tending to then have a manufacturing plant simply to "construct" them locally (in poorer countries)......so tend to taste the same. What you however can't bank on is how long the ingredients / finished product has been sat in a container etc...hence why they frequently taste different.

In this country, most are manufatured in asia and shipped/sold almost immediately - hence taste much fresher - in other countries that is not always the case.

My bro works for BAT so has all sorts of crazy tales......for instance, he is now living in Minsk - where you can buy a packet of Cigs for the equivelent of 29euro Cents!!!! Just highlights how little cigs can be made for.

Quiff - back to your original question, anywhere between 25-30 quids is reasonable and most smokers would pay it considering current prices.
