mathuv Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 there are big tobacco duties in the UK and as far as i know, there are already several importers of AF in the UK, try contact some of the big ones for a wholesale price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im looking to do the same but its not worth the hassle. Ordering from AF UK you have to get 6kg + of one flavour for a discounted rate. Tax on a kilo iv heard is around £16 so officially importing is just not worth it. If your looking for shisha for a hookah cafe or something then i can get some around £27 a kilo, seen as RRP is £40 its pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaia.plateau Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 (edited) Order from a US company that will declare your order as a gift, not containing tobacco. Edited April 25, 2008 by gaia.plateau Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll even declare your order as a gift, and not tobacco, so you won't pay taxes.umm.. hes gonna have to show somewhere that he paid import taxes on it if he plans on reselling or using in a lounge.

addicted2shisha Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 With delivery from the US on 1 kilo tubs its not really worth it even if Neal does me a great deal i still end up paying around £25 a tub after delivery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
