I was at the Mall yesterday with the wife and kid. Anyway, there used to be a cigar store in the mall but they just closed down. While looking around a new store had opened called the "SC Store"... in the back they had a case with all of the old stock from the cigar store. They had it humidified and their reading looked good. SO...... there is a sign that says 50% all cigars and Colibri lighters So I bought the reminder of their Padron 2000's for $2.25 a stick plus they gave me the box. I also bought a $32 lighter for $16. I have never smoked the Padron before.... are they a good smoke and did I get a good buy?
FYI, anyone in the Columbia SC area this was in the Columbinia Center Mall off of Harbison Blvd.
That is about the right price for padron 2000s if you buy them online. I hope you enjoy them. They are in my regular rotation. I think the maduros are a little better than the naturals.
Hard work may pay off eventually but laziness always pays off now.
hey Jack...I'm about an hour away from Cola. don't get there as often as I would like, but may make a trip soon...they have anything else good in stock?...Tiny TIm would probably be VERY interested in your post. Keep up the good work bargain hunting.
Smalltownsmoker, ok.... SMALL world.... I used to live in Manning, actually went to high school there. I could not find your e-mail, but mine is: OutfieldJack@yahoo.com
That's a very good price for the 2000's. I personal like the 2Ks & 5K Maduros the best from that line...but I'm looking forward to trying the new 6000s.
Not sure where "pmp" is shopping online and getting a price like that.
Betcha they bought that stuff for about 10 cents on the dollar (perishable goods) and might be happy to double their money by selling to you for 20 cents on the dollar especially for the cigars, but you're gonna have to make it worth their while by offering to buy most of it.....(or at least make a BIG purchase)
Ruger, Idesign posted the place I was referring to. I am not going to split hairs over 5 bucks/box. I would say that anything in the 2-3 dollar range is a good price for those smokes seeing as most people would and often do pay 4-6 if they go to a brick and mortar joint, especially in california.
