I'm looking for a few sticks that CCOM doesn't carry, nor does my local B&M. While understanding fully that nothing compares with CCOM, if there is another online retailer that you trust would you mind sending me a name or link through PM? I've ordered from CI before it it was okay (but nothing like the customer service at CCOM) and they don't have what I am looking for at the moment either. I had a bad experience with Thompson and will not order from them again. Other ideas?

    Thanks for all the great advice guys! I guess another way to ask the question is "are there places you'd never buy from again?"

    Thompson, JR, Shopwiseguys(i think theyre out of business) all for heinous customer service and recieving cigars that look like theyve been through a dehydrator.

    I know I've emailed before and if they don't have it a lot of times they can get it. Tim got me several really htf smokes and the price on them was insane.

    Totally agree Glen. Just give andy, or tim a call and there is a good chance they can help out. For a wide variety of reasons they cannot always publicly advertise all that they have access to.

    Okay, whomever turned me on to the auction site you are a deadman. Bid on a bunch if stuff thinking I would certainly be outbid. I was not. Oops.

    That was NOT me. Nope. No sir. I know what you mean though that's how my cooler ended up with two boxes of Tats.

    yeah, just won a cutter and a travel ashtray. I thought for sure I wasn't going to win.

    Even worse, in my head that means I need to win more before my ship date so I can take advantage of the reduced shipping charges by combining the orders....

    the devil site is indeed dangerous. i don't know what has been sent to you other than that but I will PM you a couple more. One site I left a bid on a box of TATs thinking surely at under half MSRP I would be out bid. They are resting in my humi now.

    Smart thinking on their part. Consolidated shipping makes for OCD shopping. The other auction site has fixed price shipping of roughly $6-9 depending on what shipping you choose. It is alway my rationale for overloading.
