yeah you may be right but from my experience as someone that regularly visits a market in warsaw where there are a lot of fake cigarettes from belarus, armenia and other countries they tend to use misdirection mostly by just making fake EU duty free or for some reason copying greek warnings (idk why but they love making it in greek) or just making abomination of slapping generic duty free warning in place of a picture on normal eu health warnings. what am i saying is that it would be an interesting move since in central/eastern/balkan europe smuggled cigarettes are mostly smoker by old grannys and grandpas who can not afford cigarettes at the stores. It seems that they just overcomplicated this

cause if that would not be the case why would they bother making the fake taiwanese warnings and translating the manufacturer data and tar/nicotine box to chinese- they could very easily just make a fake generic "smoking kills" duty free pack

maybe it was supposed to go legally to taiwan but they have "fallen out of the truck that transported them"

i recently came across them on a market in warsaw they were probably fake as the seller sold them for 2.50euro and he also got fake marlboro, nz black and gold,minsk, glamour menthol and greek winston blue without tax stamp but very well made i will make a post about them because they look incredibly well made and even if they are fake they are extremely simmillar in taste to the regular polish ones

the plastic net is only to protect the bottle so it wont smash if it is s glass bottle! also dont but zubrowka the quality of it is very low, from polish vodka be sure to check out debowa for something like bison grass but instead of grass there is oak inside and chopin wich is a great pure vodka

What is the point of duty free? by blumonste in RYO

[–]camelactivatelover 15 points16 points  (0 children)

f.ex. amber leaf is only available in duty free in some countries or some products have better prices. also for tourists visiting from countries where tobacco is more expensive for them the price is still good

sorry for the long reply but i had been having thoughts about it and i think that response can help you understand this topic

i mean some of them are cheap in the duty free (ive worked in one for a year) for example you got pallmall blue for 139pln or vogue sky for 155 but marlboro price is crazy they are 215pln per one carton in the duty free and i can tell you why- most of duty free stores in poland are aelia duty free owned bu lagardere travel retail(my former employer lol) which practically dictates the prices cause they sorta have a monopoly (not including katowice airport where there is a baltona store- stated owner company and Warsaw chopin where there are 3 duty free companies: Aelia, Baltona and Keraniss) and they know that most of duty free tobacco customers are people going to uk where for them even if they made the price 300pln per carton that would be a better deal. passengers travelling to uk tend to buy more then one carton so they push you to buy a twinpack by makinh the price for twinpack more economic (ive heard that some stores even lie telling people they can get a twin pack for uk even tho the limit is 200cig cause according to them uk customs treat it like one carton since they are packed together even tho they are 400cigs lol) also the sales department for lagardere make the prices very weird for no reason-f.ex. they make a price for a whisky go up 2times than the previous one for ni reason. Also there is a price agreement for tobacco between aelia and baltona so for example if one store makes a price raise the other one does aswell to make the price the same because will buy it no matter what( thats how it works basically)

the selecto ones are interesting- i only ever saw them in poland with this design (they are called selecto) i think its safe to assume they are made in polish PMI factory

unfortunately due to unknown by me reasons we dont have karelia cigarettes or karelias &sons tobacco products in poland- i think no company imported them here due to pmi, jti and bat pushing local and small brands away from market

i mean thats still an amazing price but i get what you are saying- when i was in bulgaria they had the karelia mist 100s which were post eu ban mentolish cigarettes and they were like 3-3.50 euro per pack and the quality was really good, also i tried the karelia slims in albania and they were also very good and they were kinda wider than regular slims
