I do believer that there shouldn't be advertising on the message boards but being an "x" smoker those prices sure seem cheap on that other post about smokes. I wonder if the same respoce would be had if someone advertised gas for $1.50 a gallon. huuuuu uuuuu ummm!!!

I was just making a joke about the add. Wasn't thinking I was going to get such a serious response. But as far as the going to jail part I can see your point. I live in S.W. Michigan. About 20 miles from the Indiana line. Cigs in MI are about $60 a carton now I believe, IN is around $28. Same thing as far as the law goes,(not legal to go over there to buy) but it sure is funny when I used to get them in Indian state and local cops from MI would be right beside me buying them.

They are avoiding the tax. Actually hurts your state, if like me you don't smoke....

I don't really like the tractor ads placed within the message forums - that's what the classified section is for. Use that.

Gas would be a tiny bit related to old tractors at least. Wouldn't like that either.

Smokes ads just have no business at all here.


There used to be a 3rd part to the internet - 'Newsgroups' or 'Usersgroups' which were unregulated message forums basicaly. Really, really neat.

Being unregulated, all types of these ads were posted across all the newsgroups.

You couldn't hardly find a message about (tractors, emmus, coin collecting, thousands of other topics) because of all the junk being spammed across the groups.

This part of the internet still exsists (Google took it over kinda) but no one really bothers with it any more, most of you don't even know it is there.

It was killed, by ads for smokes and other such garbage.

Please don't ask for that to happen here. It is _aweful_ to have to ade through all those useless messages to find anything that interests a person.

If you want a good deal on smokes, go to a smoking message board - you will find them out there. Google->Groups will get you to the public ones; Yahoo has more controlled message forums on all topics. Others do as well.

Don't wreck this one. There are not many useable web sites discussing old tractors. Please let this one be.

Many of the online cigarette stores ship their product from indian reservations, avoiding state taxes. Although their home states can't do much about it, if you buy cigarettes from one of these outfits your state can come after you. I don't smoke, but if I did I sure wouldn't risk going to jail to save a few bucks on cigarettes.
