Ok where can I purchase cigars online without joining a club?

[Maximum Closeness]

Hi Gents,
Just want to purchase cigars and accessories without getting involved in the Thompson nightmare I finally got out of. Please give me some options. Cheers!

Argh Thompson’s Cigars!

Cigars International will do right by you. I also like JRCigars.

Yep, JR is good, Cigars International is good. If you want to play in the deep end, cigarbid is also good. But don’t blame me when you have 7 boxes of cigars on the way to you and you need to set up a new coolidor to store them all!

Others can weigh in, but my understanding of current regs, is its ok to buy them abroad and bring them back, but not technically ok to mail order them.

I agree that Cigars International is a good vendor. I get regular catalogs from them and Cigar.com, and have for a number of years. I haven’t seen Cubans in either catalog.

I agree that CI and JR are good. I've also had good experience with Famous Smoke Shop.

Thanks everyone!

I like cigars international and their deal of the day. You get a good price and free shipping.

My son just got back from Cuba and brought a bunch with him, no issues. I do think there is a limit though.

 

[TexLaw]

@opus The limit is 100 sticks per adult.

I think he brought 25. I havent even had one yet and I think they are dry already. We're working on that though. Then again, I wouldnt know a good one from a bad one.....yet.

My current favorites are:

Famous Smoke Shop

Small Batch Cigar

PuroCigar

I always used JR's

Primarily JR's. I've always signed up for JR Plus, which gets you free shipping with no exclusions. I think it was cheaper when I first started, but now is $60/year. Their shipping charges are a flat rate $6.99 or approx. 8.6 orders to pay for the subscription. What I like is I'm able to buy anything I need without thinking about the s/h costs. For example, I can buy one lighter or a few bags of pipe cleaners with "free" shipping. Since I've started smoking my pipes again, I'm smoking way fewer cigars so my strategy may have to change at JR.

Just placed an order with Famous Smoke Shop! I have a new lighter, butane and some Baccarat and Cao flavored sticks on the way.

CI is the best. If you haven't been to their Bethlehem or Hamburg stores....you need to.

Famous Smoke
Holt Cigars
CI
JR

Compare prices before you pull the trigger. There always seems to be a giveaway or deal when you buy a box with Famous or Holt.

Check cigarbid.com as well.
Same inventory as CI because if it isn't the same company, I know for a fact they use the same warehouse.
