Maybe 🤔 ... my luck, I'll get a Mark Twain sampler and I'll feel like a turd if I complain after getting 8 LAdCs for $12.

Been looking closely at those Hoyo dark sumatra boxes you mentioned, may hafta snag one of them and try ordering the Cain sampler again as an add on.

Just looked at my MB3s and the robustos are all the same size, but I think they are the larger ones ( seem smaller than the older ones I have). Not worth complaining about, but makes them look careless.

The Deal is Back, back on again today(2/20)

Been very interesting over there recently. In the past the SUPER good deal on the MB3's happened just a few time a year for a short while then it was gone. Recently, it seems to be on every other week or so for quite a while. Not sure if they got a huge boatload of these in or if they might (finally!) be getting near the end of the MB3 supply (which is supposedly a "limited" release!) and they are clearing out their stock at a good price as they are doing with the Room 101 offerings.

I actually assume it would be he first of those and that, with the FDA rules still hanging over people's head, there will NOT be an MB4. Instead the MB3 will just continue on and on and on as one of those permanent limited releases we all know and love....

I get that old hands like to protect their deals but it's amusingly frustrating as a noob trying to learn the secrets lol. Forget the specific products you're talking about but can someone at least send me a link to the site in question?

There is a difference. Noticable when taken out of the cello. I messaged them as well and they replied back explaining the difference.

Also if you notice the robusto cello have a label that says 5x50

The robusto extra are the ones with out the size on the label

I think the box press on these help make that 54 ring gauge seem smaller and more manageable.

Thanks. I was half kidding when I said it’s hard to tell the difference between the two....not that hard.

BUT, when looking at them in a desktop humi, amongst other cigars, without my glasses, and marginal lighting??

Then it gets tough...

...smaller and more manageable.

kind of an unfortunate description to use here in the testosterone room.

would you like a do-over? or use one of your lifelines?

But I do tend to find cigars less enjoyable once they start to hit that 54-56+ spot

Never been a fan of puffing on a tailpipe.

A few days ago CBID put up a lot on auction starting at $ 69.95. No reports on the overbid topic yet.
