Online Tobacco Sales in Australia: Between Health Warnings and "Cheap" Cigarettes 
 
A website has appeared offering Australian residents the opportunity to buy tobacco products with home delivery. The website, which goes by Australia Tobacconist Hub, presents a striking contradiction: aggressive marketing of cheap cigarettes alongside formal warnings about the dangers of smoking. 
 
Product Range 
 
The platform's key customer base is people who smoke seeking lower prices. Among the products listed are: 
 
Double Happiness (?? ??) — $190 per block (10 packs x 20's) 
Manchester Sapphire Blue - Dubai Version — $220 per block 
Manchester Special Edition Flow Red - Dubai Edition — $250 per block 
Manchester Blue Crush - Dubai Edition — $250 per carton 
Dunhill Blue - UK Edition — $220 per carton 
Dunhill Red (UK Version) — $190 per block 
Benson &amp; Hedges Gold — $160 per block 
Zhongnanhai (???) — $180 per carton 
 
The seller highlights “affordable rates” (Cheap Tobacco Australia) and the presence of well-known names such as Marlboro, Manchester, Bossku, Double Happiness, and others. 
 
Shipping and Billing 
 
The seller promises fast, reliable, and discreet delivery across Australia (Fast Tobacco Delivery Australia). They claim to accept various payment options including bank transfer, USDT, PayPal, Wise, and more. Customer communication is done via WhatsApp and email — a common method in the grey or black market for online tobacco sales. 
 
Mixed Messages 
 
Curiously enough, the identical platform that sells cigarettes (while officially noting that selling to persons under 18 is illegal) also features a “STOP SMOKING” image with an image of lungs crossed by a cigarette. 
 
In a part named “STOP TOBACCO”, the text reads: 
 
“Quitting isn't easy, but every effort counts. Within minutes, your body starts recovering — and as time goes by, your health and energy come back. Let's start today!” 
 
This public health message is placed near a list of items for sale with prices from $160 to $250 per carton and a call to action: “Purchase cigarettes online in Australia for the lowest price.” Such hypocrisy is typical of unlicensed or “grey market” tobacco shops that pretend to care about public health while still pushing harmful goods. 
 
Legal Issues 
 
The text does not specify whether the seller holds a valid Australian retail license for tobacco. Australia is known for having some of the most severe cigarette regulations globally, including plain packaging requirements and extremely high excise taxes. The offer of “cheap” cigarettes — especially “Dubai Edition” or “UK Version” — often suggests untaxed, smuggled, or counterfeit goods. 
 
Final Thoughts 
 
The presented service is a clear illustration of a dark-market cigarette seller. It exploits smokers’ desire to save money in the face of Australia’s high legal tobacco taxes, while masking itself with empty health warnings and claims of customer care. Those thinking of purchasing should be aware that purchasing unregulated cigarettes carries not only the chance of legal trouble but also a total absence of any assurance regarding product safety and authenticity.
