DON'T GET TOO EXCITED....

THEY throw a nice event and it runs way smoother

Than the early years.

Problem is...it is in the middle of *****ING nowhere.

Again, a cool event if you go with friends.

Oh yea, They sell out in less than 5 minutes...

Some years less than 1 minute...

You gotta be a computer wizard to get one....

UNLESS C.I. CHANGED THAT PROCESS?

I don't know?

CIGARBID IS STILL THE BEST PLACE TO BUY

CIGARS IN THE USA !!!!

You'll have to excuse Mr. Jones as he is still learning the English language and is pizzed off Trump is about to deport his entire family, probably on shipping he paid to UPS . Eventually he will learn to write in a coherent matter but until then we should be polite and nod our heads in agreement.

Mr. Jones, I've been going for years and always enjoy it. It may be in the middle of nowhere to you, but is in the middle of everywhere to most. Easily accessible off the interstate to those that travel from New York, New Jersey, Philly, etc...and make up their usual retail customer base. Yes tickets go very quickly, so I hope I don't have any problems this year like I did the past two. New strategy of mine could reduce my chances of missing out. Good luck to all of you trying for tickets today. Hopefully if I or others miss out we have a fellow forum member with extras an a reasonable asking price, not like the scoundrels that have been buying them all up with the sole intent of reselling at a ridiculous price.

PS: I'm sure there arent any great locations that are happy to have 1000s of cigar smokers stinking up their indoor venue, which makes it almost unrentable again, and/or rent it out at a price to keep our ticket prices where they are.

Tried to get in the second it was available and sat there...and sat there...and sat there...while it cycled, then got in and was all sold out for Saturday so I looked for a Friday and had to settle for VIH. Really wanted Saturday General Admission, so hopefully I can find a way to trade them out with somebody else looking for swap.

Anybody get their tickets yet? I got a message saying they were being shipped but the tracking info doesn't show them actually being shipped.

DrMaddVibe can get that fixed for ya and will upgrade you to the Exclusivity package for your troubles. Just pm him all pertinent purchase information and the upgraded tickets will be next day air shipped right to your door.

And if you act now, he'll also throw in a 5'er of Gurkha Legend Double Maduros and a Special Bonus gift for Platinum Members.

Anyone here going? I have a ticket for Friday looking to swap for Saturday if anyone is interested. My friend had something big pop up on Friday but really wants to make it Saturday.

Another good Cigarfest in the books. Thanks to the CI staff that work long and hard to pull it off and are probably already starting on Cigarfest 2018. Thanks for the canopies to stand under while in line, with the crappy rainy weather it was a great idea.

PS: was there something else going on in the cigar business this weekend? It just seemed like so many of the people we see represented at Cigarfest weren't there this year; their brands were still there but the personalities behind some brands weren't.
