How long before they do this to cigars ????

PACT Act
THE SITUATION: Right now there is legislation pending in the United States Senate - the Prevent All Cigarette Trafficking Act of 2009 (“PACT Act”) (S.1147) which contains, among other bad ideas, a provision to make ALL cigarettes and smokeless tobacco products nonmailable. This legislation has already been passed by the House of Representatives and has PASSED the Senate Judiciary Committee on November 19th 2009. Please call 1-800-828-0498 to contact your Senators office now and tell them to VOTE NO on the PACT Act.

According to a goverment website, the act has passed committee, but has not gone before the entire senate for a vote, So it should still be legal to mail ciggs, Correct? The web site info was dated as of today Feb 3rd

The law isn't passed yet, but Postal policy now dictates that no cigarettes are to be mailed, no matter the quantity.

This is just a way to be certain that you buy locally and pay the tax to support the S-CHIP boondoggle. A-holes.
I'm getting tired of this. I just may pack up and move to a free country. Anybody know of one?

There are plenty non USA based companies in Europe or Asia to buy from. As with ISOM's Foreign companies could care less about american laws. They just lie on the custom forms. I know of one in the Ukraine I have used, cheap as hell but they will only ship one carton at a time. ie. Marlboro $8.25 a carton + $6.50 S&H. Still a great deal, but you have to go through the bullshit of placing 5 or 6 orders to get enough to last a month.
