Cost of cigarettes
There was hundreds of big boxes with thousands of packets of cigarettes in 2 trailers and yet he was only selling them for 5K the guys buying them was haggling for 2K and later on Axel said that he couldn't accept 2K cos they'd know he was a cop for selling so cheap.
How much were they back then cos 5K seems awfully cheap for all those even back in the 80's?
Plus the one of the guys he was selling them too was already in the truck ready to drive off even before the cops arrived, was that part of the deal too?
