they need 2020 Best Shopping



You do know those “awards” are just marketing schemes right? There’s no award show ceremony about it, there’s no finalist list, there’s no criteria....it’s literally a “you’ve won” type of letter that comes in the mail...along with an order form for a plaque at a mere $49.99 price tag to it.

My thought would be to ask for pictures of specific products with peoples forums names next to the boxes or something....just an idea

To be honest Raj, I'm sure your a decent guy and I'm sure your supplier out of Maryland is too but we're already pretty well connected with people in and around the cigar industry. Personally I am connected with several reputable dealers here in Texas. We don't do group buys normally and if we do it is for Custom rolls and extremely limited and hard to find stuff. Thanks for the offer.

I understand and completely get the “no we’re good” type of response. If you change your mind or would be interested in something like a group buy, let me know. Group buys can be as small as 5 guys to as large as 100. Either way, having another “guy” in you Rolodex of deals, never really a bad option.

Hopefully this helps, last two group buys were the following. Davidoff Nicaragua Diadima, had enough guys buy it to bring the price down to $152 a box. Also we did a pre-buy group by for the new avo limited edition 2020 with prices down to $165/box. Just saying that was on Facebook, could you guys imagine what we could do on a cigar forum?

^Are you getting some sort of commie kickback for group buys? The Commie 13 is the only ones allowed here for such actions.

I don't think they're real commies.... If they were the purge would have started by now, at least 3 dead and they'd be split into two camps vying for control of the people's souls. Not one manifesto posted yet and not one demand we all consolidate our cigars so they can be fairly distributed among the comrades. But, Frank does keep pm'ing me insisting I call him папа медведь. Awkward....

Stop!
Your contact is no better than those of ours.
Your boasts/posts are not going to get you anywhere here. You are a new guy who needs to develop some street cred before any of us would risk a group buy with you.

Agreed with Rfenst! A lot of shady individuals in those FB cigar groups and so many groups they just move on to the next when outed. You would have to build cred before anyone would trust you with money on here. Most on here don't search out Davidoff or AVO LEs either.

With that being said, I've reached out to a few guys that are magnificently reputable and no one knows this guy.

Understood, street cred is necessary. Not sure who you reached out to on Facebook but if you really needed referrals, I can pm you. Either way, I get it guys. Don’t want to ruffle any feathers. I’ll be more active first then offering group buys

Theeconnection, thank you for being willing to contribute to the community. After building some cred I’m sure that there will be a group of people who would be interested.

Don’t let the guys bother you, they all suffer from small **** syndrome. You are being too nice, hit back brother!!!

I left a text with Bart that I spoke to Raul today about the LGSB. Raul said he still hasn’t received any new information on the other two crates. He said they are shipping slowly and is hoping to hear back soon. He sends his apologies to everyone about the delays. I thanked him for his efforts in trying to retrieve the remaining crates.

I don't like the fact that my post and Franks didn't get the laugh they deserved. We moved the comedy into the Russian language! Try getting that for free anywhere else. Bunch of born critics. Of course on the flip side I've been drinking NyQuil like it's water for the past four days or so. So, maybe my judgement is slightly impaired. Nah... I'm not buying that. We're funny damn it!

clearly we have spoiled our audience.
look at it this way...their collective ennui should serve as inspiration for even greater comedic achievements.
Let us not fall into the trap of blaming our victims.
