I've "volunteered" to buy some for a colleague and was wondering if its cheaper to buy on departure or return (at Murcia airport)?

Sorry know nowt about tax on them.

they're not for you so why should you care?

either way you should mark them up so that they are just as expensive as those bought in a UK offy...

Do people still bother with duty free?

Isn't it all now just another rip off "retail experience"?

Murcia San Javier?

Cheaper at a shop outside the airport.

It's cheaper to buy them in a shop in downtown Murcia. There is no "duty free" across Europe any more, however fags are much cheaper in Spain as way less tax. You can take as many as you want back for personal use. The airport shops will have quite a mark-up on them.

Yeah - Murcia San Javier.

Hi
If you are flying within the EU I didnt think you could buy ciggies on the way out.
I have never bothered but someone I flew from Manchester to Toulouse wasn't allowed to buy.
I could very easily be wrong though.
Buy at the other end-much much cheaper
Cheers
