Where to sell cigarettes?

Sup,

So basically I have in 700ish Marlboro Lights, genuine of course and in unopened boxes of 20 a pack, UK duty paid.

I need to sell them but I don't know where... I've sold plenty to friends (including loads for their friends) but there is a limit on how much even smokers want to buy in one go lol.

Any one got any ideas?

Btw, this is completely legal. They are fully UK duty paid (specifically UK) and were not imported from Europe for personal use - please don't lock mods! :smile:

Should of thought about your target market before you invested.

I didn't 'invest' so to speak bro, they sort of landed in my hands from someone who has to leave the country tout de suite.

just keep them until your friends and friends of friends want more? would you be selling them for cheaper than shops or would the fact that you have paid the duty make them shop prices? do you regularly go to any pubs? can you sell them at work/college/uni? would you be willing to sell them to under age people?

Go to the local corner shop and try and flog them there to the retailer but obviously offer them for a price cheaper than he gets them for to ensure that sale.

Yeh pubs is an obvious choice but I don't really know any 'regulars' - I can't just walk in and start selling them, will get barred lol.

An no my parents don't run a corner shop lol.

Yeh but after selling bare **** ****ing loads of them, I still have 700 lol - ideally new avenues would help shift them soon coz I'm going to uni soon.

They are much cheaper than normal retail price so obviously people would want them but I can't find them lol. Answered the pub suggestion above, I don't know the regulars so I can't exactly offer to sell without getting barred!

Won't sell to under aged, don't want a conviction for a few quid lol.

You could get 700 to university easily, I'm sure I saw an 800 box of Marlboro on a ferry once and it wasn't very big

How much are you charging per pack anyway?

Marlboros are going up in price here this month, and they're already 8.50. I'm panicking :emo:

Yeah...nightclubs usually sell them for extortionate prices in their vending machines, so you could probably sell them outside well :wink:

Keep them in case you ever need to barter yourself out of being raped in the showers in prison
