Buyers remorse is upon me. Those marketing geniuses at EZ know they have me as one of their suckers who pay blind extravagant prices + shipping. Oh for the days of auction only discount satisfaction

Never enough but only working 30 hrs a week right now so other things first. I probably have enough for a few years anyway.

How do u have buyers remorse b4 trying them? Lol. Yes I got some. The EZ/Nomad/Cigar Federation advert wording is ridiculous. But that being said I've never felt I got burned with an EZ nor Nomad release. I have got burned with one or 2 of the Cigar Federation releases. I can weed through those fairly good now. Herfing

I don't particularly agree with EZ's sales plan. They release seemingly "rare" microbatch blends at a rediculous price "never to ve produced again" and once sold out the appear as reccurring items in their cigar of the month club.

Not saying their cigars are bad, in fact I like their seconds. That's probably the better way to go Honestly

Matter of fact, Cory, if you want to try their blends I would recommend buying the seconds first and then judge according to that.

400 ct humidor almost full we know it doesn't hold 400
300 ct humidor full still not 300
3 115 qt tupperdores can't add another box
1 105 qt coolerdor can't add no more here either

All this is mostly full boxes and some bags

I just counted one tupperdore it has at least 25 boxes in it and it had probably about 50 more cigars in bags .

I never said I don't need more just I don't think I will run out anytime in the near future. When I get back to 40 hrs a week I will go back to buying again.

I can occasionally (maybe twice a year on average) find ways, usually ways that are very non-obvious (e.g. a sale plus a killer obscure multi-promo-code stack) that let me get world-class cigars for $3.00-4.50 each or so, so what I do is load up heavily when that happens.

The vast majority of the time when there is NO such way to get them cheap, I have a ton of them already, so it doesn't matter. I just wait for the next time I'm able to find an ultra-cheap method and load up heavily again.

This way, I never have to pay the usual far-higher prices ($9.00-15.00 each or even higher) for really good cigars.

The large amount of money this saves over the years? Invest it with DRIP, so it compounds completely automatically without any effort from you, perpetually. Yay!

Not only do you smoke top-notch cigars, but you ALSO have a big-ass pile of money when you're older. Win!

Several guys have asked what DRIP is, so I made a post about it on the "General Discussion" board, have a look:

Are premium tobaccos traded on the cbot? Or just the cbid?

I have a very similar problem, but worse. The winador is full, my humidor is full, and I'm not even going to verbalize the count. It's insane.

I'd recommend go shopping for coolers but the rabbit hole goes pretty deep once you realize how quick and easy it is to set up. Be cautious
