EEK! Re: purchase of cigarettes online

Is it legal to purchase ciggarettes fromoutside of the United States and have them imported into the states?
Because I have seen some cites say that it is. But i saw somewhere that in 2004 it was legal. But that was 5 years ago so maybe things have changed...

Default Re: purchase of cigarettes online

Some states have enacted laws that restrict the sale and shipment of cigarettes over the Internet to consumers in that state. For example, it is illegal for Internet vendors to ship cigarettes or cause cigarettes to be shipped to consumers in New York State. Moreover, a number of states have enacted age-verification laws to ensure that minors do not purchase cigarettes illegally over the Internet. Depending on where you live, it may be illegal for a delivery service to simply leave a package of cigarettes in your mailbox when you're not at home.

In addition, under federal law, it is illegal for Internet vendors or consumers to cause most branded cigarettes to be imported into the United States. Cigarettes that are imported illegally into the United States are subject to seizure and destruction, without compensation to the purchaser.

Not sure beyond this
