The OMB3 place has the OMB3 sampler at (what is now) their lowest price $3.29 per cigar shipping included. Not as good as they once were when that site got its moniker, but still not bad.


I am passing this time as I am pretty well stocked up, but you like the Oliva Master Blend 3, this is the best deal you will find.

Just grabbed it and the Royal Flush sampler to get the free shipping. Wish they had the King's Ransom sampler in stock. It's a heck of a deal.

Thanks for the heads up.

YW.

Actually my favorite sampler from them (when it is on sale with free shipping) is their "Nocturnal Beasts" sampler. It is more expensive than the OMB3 sampler but all the cigars are really good - including Oliva Melanio V's , my favorite size of the OMB3 (double robusto), and you don't get the only OMB3 vitola that I don't care for as much, the torpedo.


BUUUUUUT, if I am spending money on that site, its hard for me not to just buy another box of the Room 101 MC3 Roxxos. Dang, they are good.

Will you knock that **** off! Seriously. Everytime one of you yahoos do that there's a run. That's how I got fucked out of my 2nd box of CCA's I had on the list for my next buy.

"Oh man, back up the truck these are great!"

Bam, out of stock. **** man, knock it off.

thanks Sunover,
I saw a 4 box sampler at the monster site but at 8.50 each with a free cutter/free shipping it still seemed pricey Not familiar with an OMB site....

Haha. But I don't think any of these are turds. Although I haven't had the San Cristobals yet.

Those that watch for OMB3 deals, just a heads up. They are on FF now and can be had for $3/stick incl shipping. I think these are an incredible smoke for the $. Really enjoy them.

That must have been a mistake that has been taken down. Currently the only OMB3 on FF are boxes of Torps and Churchills resetting at $145 - $150 ($7.50 each).

No, they are still up. I did screw up though in my post above. I was looking at the per bundle price thinking it was total when I posted that. I will fix that. So double that cost. $3/stick. Still better than the deal this thread was created about.

Benja you sent me an OMB3 churchill (which I already ashed) so either you don't even know your own stock or just got lost on the abbreviate
Either way thanks again Frying pan

You can at times find the same OMB3 bundle on free fall at a competitive price, but don't forget shipping which is "free" with the sales at the OMB3 place, but $7 here. That usually brings them pretty close in total price if all you are buying from cbid is that bundle. Now if you have other things to are already buying on cbid so can combine shipping, then you are getting a better deal.

Glad you liked it! They are good but the box press churchill is not my favorite vitola. I actually went and bought some after this thread. Still have a few somewhere.

Yeah, that's about as cheap as they go at OMB3 anymore. IF you watch closer and are patient, you can sometimes get them for a bit less than that here on Cbid freefall even with the added shipping. BUT with the shipping and CS issues here right now,I would probably just get them from OMB3-land

Here is a competitive deal going on right now here: https://www.cigarbid.com...-3-mega-sampler/3603511/

With Shipping, then that is RIGHT NOW, a competitive price, but could go up of course.

Generally better to wait until they show up on free-fall.

If you are willing to risk any customer service issues, the best deal right now is on Free Fall

https://www.cigarbid.com...-3-mega-sampler/3626540/

I have seen it get as low as $58.52 with $6.95 shipping for a total of $65.47 and, who knows, if you wait long enough it might even drop below that!

Of course, if you are already getting something else at the same time, the shipping would effectively be less.

Edit: $57.80!
