Been doing research on this one and ran across the price of $250 for a box of 25. $470 for 50. This sounds a bit off don't ya think? If it's true that would be GREAT but...........

I have only bought from them once and their product is legit. Too bad they no longer ship to Canada.

Cor: Steve, you have proven yourself to be a tremendous whack job.

My thoughts exactly. Most of thier other sticks are cheaper too but only by maybe $20. They boast the Habanos mark on thier home page and are advertising a authentic gauruntee. Offering free cigars with every purchase. If any of this sounds familiar please just chime in. If this place can be confirmed I'll jump on that deal in a heartbeat. My current place has them at around $350 like you said. If this is a holiday deal that might explain it but.....

My opinion has always been that you search for trustworty, service-oriented tobacconists FIRST.

If you start with price and work backwards, you will inevitably get yourself into trouble.

True enough but when searching on the internet it's not as easy. Most times you have to bite the bullet and possibly waste money or you come to forums and ask for somebody to confirm what it is that you're seeing.
Steve-thanks for the feedback. I'm about to send you an email if you're still around the PC.

To the best of my knowledge, Sir Winstons have NEVER been sold in cabs of 50. Only in the quite beautiful wooden box presentations of 25.

That price sounds way, way too low. Plus, it is my understanding that Sir Ws don't come in 50 Cabs (someone please correct me if I'm wrong)-- or are they selling two boxes for $470? Either way, something is fishy here.

No, they don't come in 50 cabs. That price indeed seems way too low. Maybe you could get Monarchs for that price, but not SW's.

One of my best friends passed away a couple of weeks ago and I've been dealing with that and busy trying to help out his family. That and just haven't been up to posting lately.

Peace,

It is too good to be true Sir Winstons do not come in Cab's as Ramon Allones Gigantes do not --I wish they did.

me too. I believe it said 2 boxes. I'm guessing it was a sale as the site said something about Churchill Week. I won't be purchasing from this site though. Sacre Bleu!!! I've only had 1 of ththe Sir Winston and loved it. I'm shopping for a box to make my X-Mas bright Big Grin
