Dude as a smoker who travels overseas allot...

Let me be the tell you that duty free Winny's suck ass....

Winny Blues are $67 a carton at coles and the duty free ones have tobbaco all over the place. I mean you get a half a smoke out of them....

Ill over you $80 for both cartons... Plus $5 postage...

Cartons in coles i have seen are $73 and these cartons have 10 packs of 20, making it 200 cigs not 250 like i have 4 sale.

My mate used to smoke whinie blues and he has had duty free cigs and u r speaking a load of shit.

How about, just for you a special, you can give me $400 and ill give you 1 pack. Dude.

Just so SAU doesnt get in to any strife...

Smoking can harm you baby, heath, friends, others in general, can start fires, is bad for you, and SMOKING KILLS! I think that covers it all :D

I thought somkers would b jumping at this opportunity!

$150 is lowest, not big drop but i need the cash bad.

A carton for 200 cigs (10 packs of 20's) is 73$ at coles, the cartons i am selling are 250 cigs (10 packs of 25's) so ur basically getting 50 cigs for an extra $2 each carton. How often when you go to buy cigarettes you get a deal to get an extra 50 for $2 that could b an extra 2 days of smoking for a heavy smoker.

Hope that made sense.

Enjoy.

ok, I go overseas abit, and duty free winnies are $30 a carton. hehe

remember that the reason why cigs are so high priced in aus is cos of the tax. duty free, means tax free..

you should be selling em at $50 a carton.. MAX...

DaGr81 i can probably get medals made up for 50$ sounds like u need one, congratulations on selling them for 50$, damn your cool.

DD thanks for telling me what to do, i need to wipe my ass after i have a sh*t can you tell me how many wipes and also how many pieces of toilet paper i should use, because your advice is REALLY useful.

Tax or no Tax, a smoker will be getting two cartons of 250 cigs for basically the same price as they would get two cartons of 200 cigs. so its still a bargin for a smoker.

If you are not interested in wat im selling then dont f**kn write anything :Bang:

If duty free products are not allowed to be sold on ebay or in the paper what makes you think the forums are any better. What kick do you get out of paying other line owners out.

You say you are saving for a line. Well ripping off fellow liners is not very nice then is it.

As stated above and any smoker will tell you. Duty free smoke are not exactlly the same as the Aust purchased items. Take for instance i smoke. I bought a carton of B&H lights (which are 6mg here) the other week from thailand and they were 20mg... Also id like to mention they tasted like crap. Im now using them as give aways for the bums at work.

Last night my cousin came over from NZ and bought me a carton of Winfield Blues. This carton is made up of 8 packets of 25 smokes. As you pass threw customs you can only have 200 smokes and 2.3 litres of alcohol.

So how did you get 250 smokes?

Time to cut your losses. I suggest you ditch your username as its in most people ignore list by now. Get a grip and re-join the forums when you learn to comunicate at an above child level. Sell you smokes to people you know, in your local area. Not on the forums.

SAU would be responsible for the taxes and duties from this sale....!!!!

How am i ment to know about duty free products not being able to be sold on ebay or in the paper, i do not buy anything from ebay nor do i use it. I have not read anywhere that such products are not to be sold on here.

I get no kick out of 'paying out' other members on these forums, however i do get annoyed at people coming on and telling me how to sell the product and what i should be doing.

I pesonally did not buy these cigarettes so i had no idea of how much they cost 'duty free' i was just basing my prices on what i saw for sale at 'Coles'.

Going by a mate who i know who has smoked duty free winnies, they said they could not notice the difference so i assumed that they were exactally the same, for this reason i got annoyed at the people who said they were different as i had been told they are exactaly the same.

They were pruchased by my relatives who went to vanuatu, and they were able to buy a carton each and it says on the carton they contain 250 cigs. They purchased them and they got it through customs so the law must be 250 per person.

Most people in my position would try and sell them for as much as they could get, still well bellow what you would pay for the in Aus. I thought that i was selling them for a cheaper price, not ripping anyone off as i thought they were the same quality as the cigs here.

I will however take your advice and not sell them on these forums.

Its very frustrating when trying to sell something when people rubbish the product and their views conflict with other things that i have been told. So ofcourse i am going to get pissed off and retaliate with stupid comments.

Thanks to all the 'Normal' people who just offered and did not create a hassle.

Goodbye.

ppl ppl ppl. what dont you just let the poor cu*nt sell his stuff, if you like to buy it, then buy it, dnt spread the forums with shiit, this is the FOR SALE Section not DISCUSSION. So let the guy do what he feel like, it is not breaking any forum rules.

And to add somthing about the price, maybe it is a bit high considering its Private Sale, so "Paradizzle" think about droping it a bit if you wanna sell em, however i still think its reasonable considering they are well over $160 in the shop for 2 cartons of 25's.

And this is private sale, of course you can negotiate with the guy, he even droped it to $150, meaning even a greater buy.

Cheers

Good luck Paradizzle selling it.

Thanks 'ratedGTR', apreciate it mate.

if i knew it would hav been such a hassle i would have neva botherd.

No hard feelings Col-GTSX as i can also see from your point of view.

Cya's.

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
