Let's try again... by the "rules"...
I recently purchased some cigars by the brand name of "Chavon" from a competitors web site (who will remain nameless and by admission of this very fact would indicate a lack of poor judgement on my part for the initial purchase)
However... be that as it may the smokes were excellent but I find myself in the unfortunate position of being unable to replenish the stock from Cigar Bid or correctly identify from which company who initially manufactured the cigars. All that was asked was help in this identification and possibly a suggested substitute from the many varied and wonderful brands offered by Cigar Bid and conducting the most capitalistic of our freedoms, to enter into profitable commerce. But alas... the "experts" who faithfully monitor the forum appear to be well versed in rules and regulations but less knowledgeable in cigars. I do take comfort however that with the free society that we live in, individuals such as the "experts" may find worlds of opportunity as censors that would make best use of their talents. How ironic that some supposed free-spirited cigar smokers feel obliged to meekly "play by the rules" set forth a governing authority. For myself, to descend to this level leaves be feeling cheap, dirty and disgusted. Fortunately DaveyG posesses a backbone and provides others a model to emulate in dealing with individuals with rigid views and closed minds. For demonstrating this he is set upon by others and effectively chastised as a non-conformist... in my mind a true badge of a cigar smoker. Bravo Davey G!
As for the rest... while I can't agree with your opinions, I respect and and even encourage your freedom to express yourselves.
For myself... I think I need a good smoke!
