Hi there guys, i am new to this forum and new to the whole idea of pipe smoking. Now i am posting this question because i need to know whether or not i am able to order pipe tobacco online without it being taxed by customs. I know that there are harsh taxes although on what amount are they really enforced? Are there any other Aussies who get away with ordering online? If so how much is enough to stay under the radar?

We used to have an Australian lady on the forum that could give you all the information. But she has not been on for a while. I think your best bet is to contact one of our sponsers 4noggins.com. You could find them on the list of sponsers on the bottom left corner of this page. They have a reputation of selling overseas, so they would know the rules.

You could have it shipped to Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea, then go get it in a row boat.

I don't have anything to offer on your question, but welcome to the forum. Glad you're here.

I think the question I want to ask all of the Australians is, "Does the blood rush to your head on account of living upside down?"

Welcome to the site sputnik. I have spoken to many people in situations like yours and they all use 4noggins for their tobacco needs. I cannot imagine how you guys live with those insane taxes, unfortunately I think the US is headed in the same direction.
