Kicking myself for not buying more of the 5 Vegas when they were on the Blowout? Hind sight is indeed 20/20.

I feel your pain, brother, but it does no good to look back. We must keep our eyes on the deals yet to come, for they will be plenty. I'm just glad I didn't buy more of the Hojas and Blue Ribbons.

I have to confess that all the cigars i have bought from the blowouts/specials have worked out for me. I have a large electric humidore that holds i would guess 2000 cigars, it keeps them very well. When I buy these "cheap" cigars i try one right away, if they are bad to horrible I put them in the back of the humidore. I rediscover them every month or so and they have never failed to "bloom" into at least a decent smoke. Time heals all, don't give up on those "less then great cigar buys". Invest is a good large humidore and let time and bloom save the day......Russ

Sound advice, Russ. Thanks.

you know, I suspect we will see this 5 Vegas cigars again in the next CI catalog, so maybe it will work out for you. I have noticed that more times than not in the past that when CI has a blowout auction, these cigars surface again in catalogs.

... and even on their website ...

How much were they going for at blowout? CI has all kinds and sizes available ...
