Placing an order
How can I place an order?
On the Home page you will find all the available brands. Select a brand and click on it. This will take you to the selected brand family page. Then click on 'Buy Now' button for the flavor of your choice. It will be automatically added to your shopping cart. If you want to buy more than one brand or style just select another brand from the 'Choose Brand' column and repeat the process. When you are done click 'Confirm Order'. After entering your shipping information, click on 'NEXT' to review your order. If everything is correct, press on 'Go to secured checkout'. You will be taken to Secure Server and you should enter the required information. After that click 'Pay Now'. At this point your billing information is checked and you are due to receive an order confirmation to your e-mail address. If no e-mail is received within 1 hour, please get in touch with our Support Team at [email protected].
What payment methods are acceptable?
You can make a purchase in our store using CREDIT/DEBIT CARDS. Payments through all methods are processed on-line. It usually takes not more than 2 days for credit cards processing operations. When orders are accepted and processed customers receive notifications sent automatically with their order details. Payment options provided on our web site are safe and secure.

Unfortunately no. This method of payment will be available later.
Is there a maximum order?
No. The quantity of cigarettes that can be purchased at 4Cigarettes.Net is left to the discretion of customers who must be aware of the laws in force in their country and the sanctions they may incur. Please note that for first time customers the maximum order is set at 12 cartons.
How can I find out my order status?
After you've placed your order at 4Cigarettes.Net you will be automatically notified by E-mail when we approve and ship your order. Please notice that we do not ship orders within 24 hours to give you a possibility to change or update your postal address and/or the order items.

Will I incur any additional surcharges?

About our products
Are the cigarettes sold at 4Cigarettes.Net first choice?
The cigarettes sold at 4Cigarettes.Net are of the highest quality available on the market. We sell brands made in Europe. Please note that the images of the cigarette packs displayed on our website may slightly differ from the appearance of the actual packs, due to the fact that the manufacturer may change the designs from time to time.
Do you sell other brands of cigarettes besides those advertised on your site?
Not currently. The only brands we sell are shown on the Home page.
Will you be offering other brands in the future?
Yes. The number and type of available brands may change in time.
Is there any difference between the white filter and brown filter Marlboro Lights?
Yes. The first are made to match the taste of American smokers while the second are suited to European tastes. Philip Morris does not provide any other information on this matter. According to smokers (and suggestions), the "white filters" may be slightly stronger. There is only one way to find out. Try them!

If I make an order on Saturday, when will my order be dispatched?
Usually, your order is processed in 24 hours. Orders received on Saturdays are sent on the first working day following reception (the same for Sundays and public holidays).
I bought 5 cartons of cigarettes one week ago and I have received only one parcel containing 3 cartons. Is that normal?
Yes. Large orders are shipped in separate parcels (up to 3-6 cartons per parcel). The parcels are always shipped on the same day but in rare cases they reach their destination together. The time between the first and the last parcel delivery is on average 2 to 5 days in Europe and the Mediterranean area and 2 to 10 days in the rest of the world.
Why can't you send my entire order in one single parcel?
Because it would be subject to duty since the width and value would not fall under the prescribed international parameters.

Legality
Is it legal to resell cigarettes ordered from 4Cigarettes.Net?
No. This is against the law in any country of the world.
Is it illegal to order a large quantity of cigarettes, for example, 50 cartons?
The quantity of cigarettes that can be purchased at 4Cigarettes.Net is left to the discretion of customers who must be aware of the laws in force in their country and the sanctions they may incur if their intention is to resell cigarettes. It is the responsibility of the Buyer to ascertain and comply with the laws relating to the purchase and use of any tobacco goods. In order to determine the applicable limits on purchases or taxing responsibilities, if any, imposed by a particular state, the consumer may want to contact state authorities.

Customs
Do you guarantee that no duty will be paid worldwide?
We cannot guarantee that no tax will be paid worldwide because some countries may occasionally apply the international postal regulations and standards.
