“This guy isn’t doing anything wrong. These people will smoke on Pesach anyway. All he’s doing is making a quick buck on some Machmirim that think everything is a Chashash Chometz. It’s Muttar M’Ikar Hadin for a few reasons on Pesach.”

Rav Elyashiv, Rav Moshe Shternbuch, Rav Nisim Karelitz and Rav Yisroel Belsky and many others hold that cigarettes are Asur on Pesach. In the Litvishe Velt (at least in E.Y.) almost no one smokes Pesach.
