The address is in Florida, might be a sister company? I dunno I'll edit my post if it's not affiliated with CI.

I can beat those prices by 20% every day of the week but I'm not dumb enough to post a competitor reference here.

Are you sure? Because I looked for Ramon Bueso Cigars and couldn"t find them. Buesos and Cains are my favorite budget smokes...

Prices looked pretty good compared to a lot of places, not sure if they're a legit business or not though.

You would know it if I were on the payroll because you'd have already been banned from ever posting here again.

I also have other sources with even lower prices than the company you're obviously spamming for but would never post references or links here.

I happen to enjoy hanging out here, too bad you won't be around much longer.

Regardless of all the chit-chat and competitor talk- (even umbrella companies mentioned, yes there's a bunch under the C.I. name) we still aren't getting our product or responses. Guess it's like the discount code- only a fairy tale.

For those who don't know, CI has a wholesale arm that sells to various retailers. It's probably okay to say who it is here, since it's owned by CI and I don't think we "mere mortals" can even order from it directly (because we're end-users, not retailers) so here goes. Mods, delete it (with my apologies) if it's still considered a "competitor reference":

This is how various retailers have Diesel, Bueso and other CI house brands. They're getting them wholesale through M&D.

M&D is owned by Scandinavian Tobacco Company.

CI is owned by Swedish Match.

Nope, same entity, just two different names/sub-companies. From Wikipedia:

In 2010, Swedish Match and Scandinavian Tobacco Group (STG) formed a new company specialized in cigars. [...] The new company took over the name Scandinavian Tobacco Group.

Also, as seen here (in the right-hand column):

https://www.meierdutch.com/help/contact-us/ 

...they use the same good old "1911 Spillman Drive" address as CI and its many other arms do.
