id buy some rolling tobacco from ya, cant seem to find any anywhere


Hamilton Hotel, 2nd floor, tobacco shop. Drum and Bali Shag at 13,000 won a pack (includes papers).

I'd consider a huge importation of rolling tobacco, premium brand cigarettes and unavailable brands (like Camel), but don't want to mess with customs or breaking some laws. Reselling 10 packs of imported camels could even be illegal, I don't know. This is all hypothetical.

They sell rolling tobacco in the Hamilton arcade in Itaewon (tobacconist on the 2nd floor). It's not cheap though, and the rizla's will set you back 5K a pack.

My husband bought Camels in Busan the other weekend for 5k/pack... I don't think he's been able to find them here in Seoul, though. They also had Lucky Strikes.


Wow, they still make Lucky Strikes? I don't think they sell it in the US anymore?



Yeah, the "American Original" is not sold in the US, but this summer I found cartons of Lucky Strikes for 18 USD in the duty free shops. Also, American Spirits by the carton.

I could go for a pack of Luckies or Kamel Reds. These ultra light Korean smokes are a joke.

Anyone know where I can score some pipe tobacco? I am in Pohang, so we basically have nothing.

Ohh man...tempting. thats my brand but 8,000 is too much when you can get a pack of Marlboros or Par-li-men-tu li-uh-tuhs for 2,500. I'll just (HACK) stick (COUGH) with those (COUGH COUGH) for now.


Do they sell p-funks (parliment lights) in Seoul??? they are only $2.50, if this is correct I am super stoked!! I have been buying out every store that has the buy one get one free. Smile

Or was this quote a joke, I can't tell


lol, you call 'em p-funks too. It must be a south-eastern thing, because all my other friends have no idea what i'm talking about when i say p-funk

I was super busy last summer and forgot to import some camels. Sorry folks. But as mentioned on the first page, you can buy them in Sinchon.

Two words: clove cigars.

Sure wish I could find some.

Cigarillos would be fine, too.

You can get Camel Filters (yellow), Camel lights (Light blue), Luck Strikes (filters/lights) inside Dong-Seoul Bus Terminal...Also, regular Dunhills (the wide maroon box, w/10 smokes per section), Black Deaths, and some other ones I can't recall now....All for 3,500won per pack.

Last kiosk on the left, as you're facing the boarding gates/exit doors to the buses. There's a popcorn machine/salesperson just to the right of the kiosk.
