Well, the issue is that cigarettes are very heavily taxed here in the U.S. - and when you sell people cheap cigarettes, what you're actually doing is not paying the taxes. Most governments have a problem with that. In addition, most people in the U.S. have a stick up their arse about smoking in the first place, so eBay and PayPal have a policy in their terms of service that you don't buy or sell tobacco products. There are all kinds of things like that... eBay and PayPal basically say "you can't do this because we don't like it" about several classes of products that are just culturally unpopular in the U.S.
But since he is from other country, Indonesia, he does sell cheap tobacco but the importer, the customer, will be the one to pay for the importation taxes on his/her orders.
its the Prevent All Cigarette Trafficking Act of 2009 (“PACT Actâ€) (S.1147) this restricted the importation of flavored cigarettes into the US by way of US mail and UPS . they specifically choose clove as a flavor , however left out menthol since it would affect US companies too much . political bs all of it .
But you are part of killing people, I know they are making their choices to buy and smoke a toxic substances, but you are helping them to slowly die of cancer. Try to change your business to something does not harm people. I am sorry if I am harsh in my comments.
GUYS I JUST WANT TO WARN YOU, THIS IPAYDNA IS A WELL KNOWN SCAM, three of my best associates were not paid last year at the end they held over $70000.00 in payments for one of them with excuses, reported false processing, they sometimes offer to take care of shipping products when it is about shippable goods, well don't do that you will lose your customers, they send fake stuff, after a while and held all your money for the chargebacks and refunds for fake products, and for sportbooks they wait until you have enough on the account to then keep all the funds. They always delay payments, so fraud, keep an eye on these guys they have been banned in many other forums.
Another problem you may have is that you don't know the age of your customers. Therefore you perhaps deliver your wares to kids without knowing it. But selling cigarettes and tobacco to children is illegal in many countries.
for me paypal sucks but still can't left paypal coz most of the users use paypal as a payment method and i sell microsoft keys so they can't ban me
