Greetings......I am a relative newcomer myself. My attitude towards online buying is its gotta be a really good deal and don't forget shipping cost. If my local B and M 's are anywhere close, I'd rather give them my business, even if they are a little more. Saving a few cents per stick is not worth strangling the b and m. We need to continue to support local business.....so just buy more cigars and it works both ways! On line makes most sense on boxes, less so on 5 packs and really questionable on singles. The auctions let you low ball lots of stuff if you can resist over bidding (check out over bidding thread). Enjoy.

Stay away from the waffle/pancake discussion. Next thing you know someone is going to send you looking for the thonginator.

I live in the Poconos so there is no "local" B & M within 14 miles. I have had bad experiences with B & M's, so I mostly buy online. One B & M follows you around to make sure you don't "handle" the merchandice. He even keeps the humis locked so you can't handle the merchandice and the cherry on top of the sundae is that you're sure to get a political speech anytime you enter. The others in the area are either way overpriced or they are run by people who know less about cigars than noobs. No thank you; I stay online. 😞

Got a call from my wife last night - I'm out of town - that it appeared alarge hand grenade had destroyed most of our front porch and a good sized box for Hawaii was in the middle of the crater untouched.

I warned her to handle it with care and that I would take care of it when I get back today. Can't wait to see what it holds!

After arriving home I can definitively confirm that my porch was destroyed by a Hawaiian bomb. Conan absolutely demolished me with a variety of Aloha State goodies, accessories (the cigar sort - get your minds right!) and a fair few cigars - none of which I have tried before! I'm blown away and appreciative. Someday, when I'm a grown monkey, I'll do the same to someone else.

In the meantime, I'll let these acclimate to Alabama, then take several with me down to the beach in a few weeks. This has been one lucky monkey reporting from Birmingham!

Good suggestion! Btw, I'm planning on revisiting the Bahia Blu in a few weeks to see if the one I had just needed rest.

Great! Glad I was able to help broaden your horizons.

And yes, no return fire, whack some unsuspecting n00b next year or so. 🐴

From another thread:

I believe that was a hit on the first anniversary of me joining the forum. Hit a few others as well. As I recall it, you sent a massive noob hit on me about a week after I joined. Just a small token of my appreciation.
