I stumbled onto this website after receiveing an email offering me cheap priced tobacco products. Now, all you non smokers will be against promoting smoking and I agree it is a filty disgusting habit but us smokers are addicts just like all the other junkies out there but don't receive the same sympathy. I wish I had never started smoking and thankfully non of my children smoke but in saying that I enjoy my fags and although I have tried to stop several times I have never succeeded. You have to die from something so better to die happy than end up in an old folks home. Sorry I am deviating so ... more

Right here we go.My first review so please be kind.So i wanted to buy cheaper cigarettes online and i found tobacco king.Seemed cheap got a 10% discount which was nice.Website easy to use.Payment direct to a bank account was a bit dodgy i thought but now i realise its so you cant claim your money back unlike a credit card which you can claim a charge back [im sure theyre called that].The website keeps you upto date with the progress of your order from order accpeted to payment accepted then to dispatched.The items were dispatched 2-3 days later then it took about a week to two weeks for me to ... more

These guys are a bunch of con artists. I ordered two packages several months apart and got them no problem.

I viewed the details and the number they quoted me had been seized BEFORE they had said they ... more

If you have any sence at all then you will not give tobacco king a single penny. They took £108 of my hard earned money and gave me nothing. They claim that they sent the tobacco and that the reason i hadnt recieved it was because customs had seized it. I phoned customs and they wanted a tracking number if i wanted to pay the extra tax to get my tobacco, Tobacco king conveniently send all tobacco as normal post or thats what they told me even though in their `contact us` form where it asks which catagory you are contacting about in the drop down menu TRACKING is quite clearly one of the ... more

From personal experience its probably better to go for your own, tobacco but maybe the previous review was right it could be illegal?? which doesnt seem right in some respects if its for personal use you can buy whilst on holiday, we belong to eu?? so why then cant you buy abroad online for delivery to yourself for personal use. I expect customs will charge tax though if they suspect packet is tobacco, you hear of this happening. I feel that this is all a very grey area and maybe someone should make the facts clearer?? Nb thanks for the comments re stopping smoking its not as easy as you think ... more
