Hello fellow inmates,

I have a friend that I want to send some sticks to. He is in London I'm in GA. How would you guys ship? Any tips?

1. Seal cigars in a large zip-lock baggie (suck out all the air with a straw).

2. Encase (wrap) the baggie with bubble wrap.

3. Place the (padded) cigars in a box.

4. Go to your local US Post Office. They'll explain and take your money.

don't write "cigars" on the customs form and give it a low value. UK customs are a *****, just ask Adampc22.

Priority Mail International. Better not to mention "cigars" on the customs form 2976-A.

thanks for the heads up everyone. I should be getting them out soon will include a link to the asylum for him.

classified as "Gift" on the forms.

Agree:
Do NOT mention tobacco nor cigars. . . "hand made gift(s)" is all they need to know.
