500 packets would be $5K. The doona was pretty full though.

I suppose the fact he got robbed , then to loose his stock , is in itself must be stressful . I hope they get them , I can't see him getting much of his property back . There are some real low life's out there !!.. Jim ..

It does not take a lot of Tobacco stock to add up to a lot of money.
When I purchase I will buy extra stock of lines on special so I make more profit on those lines. I might have 2 boxes of a certain cigarette that I bought at a better price, that is just over $28000 just there.


I do keep mine in a purpose built steel room which would take some getting into, the tobacco stock at the front end is locked into this room every night.
