    Not a bad price but I strongly disagree with a few of them...IMO samplers are a waste once you know what you like...buy what you know is good and you can always trade and barter for what you want too try

    if you are looking to try a lot of new sticks its a great sampler. The price is very attractive also! wait, how come i haven't ordered this yet...oh yea, andy isnt at work until tomorrow.

    Keeping in mind that I'm still at the "learning what I like" stage, wouldn't you still keep ordering samplers and 5ers to try new things?

    i always have a soft spot for fivers!! But some on the list IMO are things they are having trouble moving. Take for instance the ab family blend...IMO a sub par smoke others may like it but for a top something these shouldn't be close! Ccom has much better stuff in that range

    Isn't that the give and take with samplers though? You get a padron 64 and a dc max for $4 per, but you have to pay $4 per for a macanudo and the ab family? Those cigars end up in troop packages or given to my mooch friends who don't know better, but I get the good stuff at a deep discount.

    it pretty much is but there were some great samplers that maybe only one wasn't up too par. I guess I don't think of it as money more or less as the space and well if you don't like most of them then it's more then $4 a stick

    Any "Best of" with a Sancho Panza is definitely biased in some way.

    But to speak to the sampler; there's lots I'd try but enough I don't want I considered calling and seeing if I could modify this and get a half sampler or something. Still thinking about it.

    I'm going with no...I'm sure the ones you don't want others don't as well...this is a way of getting rid of them

    Good sampler I guess, but also a great way to sell some cigars we see all the time....see: Bueso, Park Ave, AJ's stuff, Son of Anarchy...but I guess it is a business. Some very good sticks there as well, and a good price. It was said as ia joke I think, but I do think this is a list biased list in favor of "good business", but if we get a good deal in the process----all is well.
