OK, so previously illegal cigs were 10% of the market, and now they're 80%. But the market has shrunk dramatically. From the article:

In 2010, about one in seven Australians smoked daily.

The country's main national household survey last year found that rate had dropped to about one in 18 people.

    If you assume the market halved, absolute illegal trade still went up 4x
