The attorneys general consider all Internet cigarette sales to be illegal because they violate one or more state or federal laws aimed at stopping sales to underage smokers and collecting sales taxes. They said many of the sales through foreign Web sites also violate federal smuggling, cigarette labeling, money laundering and contraband laws.

It also says in the article that they're worked out a deal with UPS & DHL to stop shipping cigarettes completely. I know this is true. I was notified by the place where I buy mine that they would have to ship via USPS, and I must pay via a draft from my checking account because the cr card companies have stopped processing this type of transaction.

I have no problem trying to stop minors from buying cigarettes, but I'm 62! Force me to provide PROOF of my age, make me sign for the damn delivery, but stopping all commerce on cigarettes is wrong!
