Is it normal to spend $400 a week on this site. I have only been doing this a couple of weeks and I am going broke quick.

after you are here 3 or 4 years, you will slow down the bidding.

i remember my first year. spent tons on "great deals" of crap cigars...i feel there are fewer crap cigars out there nowadays. do they still see victor sinclair's?

i think you are choosing well. i like

Rocky Patel--Vintage, Sungrown, Edge!, decade, olde world
CI Legends--orange, red, yellow, maroon, black, especially
5 Vegas--A (NOT the boxpessed), relic, miami, cask
Oliva--try them all
Excalibur--good stuff
perdomo--i tried all when i was a noob
CAO--brazilia (GOL! rocks), soprano, all the X2's, black (aged)
Don Pepin--ANYTHING you can get
Tatuaje--EVERYTHING you can get

some are for beginners, others will open doors that will make you regret the purchases you have made thus far. some i bought when i was new, others were traded to me--and changed my tastes.

just keep wnjoying them.

it has been a LONG, LONG time. this is STILL my philosophy--instilled by my mother; try everything once.

in my life, i have pitched only 2 cigars because of flavor. (a few due to plugging) Thomas Hinds black label (my first internet source sold me that crap). and i barely remember the other one, but it is here.

you figure the worst a company could do is make it taste like tobacco. how bad could it be?
=======================================================
answer:i do not remember the slow aged being bad.

FATBOY, I am a noob too, and yes I have spent a chit ton of money too, but I think it will stabilize. The Humi's can only hold so much right?........Right?
