Title: Thompson Cigar - Super Premium 16 special
Post by: theoldcc on 06/22/2007 10:56 AM
This looked like a pretty good deal.  16 "super premium" cigars and a travel case for $39.95.  Take a look.

They also offered a deal of 20 premium cigars for $19.95 through an ad in Golf Magazine.  Has anyone ordered from them before?

I think there are better places to order from, but these guys seem to have pretty good deals.  I have not ordered from them yet.  We talked about them awhile ago here:

I've ordered from them, and they're not a horrible company.  However:

1. They are generally overpriced, except when they have a special running on a particular brand.  And they try to push their house brands over the others.

2. They will call you and ask you to join their "club" or whatever, where you automatically receive cigars every week or month.. HA I think not!

3. They put you on their mailing list and email list for the rest of your life.

Yeah, it is getting low.  But you know how much I love marketing!  They will probably drive me crazy with all of their offers! :notamused:
