    The moderator is incorrect. <mod snip>, in the UK, is entirely legal and is one of the few that ships to Ireland via Royal Mail and An Post. Excise duty might be charged depending on the order.

    You are incorrect, naasrd. The T&Cs of that site, condition 8 specifically, says that it is compliant with UK law only. So, just like every other non-Irish site, it looks like they'll simply post tobacco to Ireland and what happens afterwards is none of their concern. This is illegal.

    I'm happy to continue debating this if you have anything which shows that, for example, they're VAT registered in Ireland, which is one of the legal requirements. But please don't name them in-thread again.

    If you can find a cigar shop in the EU which ships abroad, then, in my experience, you'll have a 95 percent chance of receiving the goods. I can say that with a lot of experience in doing it, having purchased at least several hundred cigars in this way over the last several years, and another parcel on the way that's already been sorted and will be delivered to me, Monday, for an absolute fraction of what the equivalent would cost me to buy locally with the utterly ridiculous duties and excises placed on them here. You'd want to have more money than sense to be buying them in Ireland if you smoke on anything like a regular basis.
