I've been robbed!!!!!!!
http://i894.photobucket.com/albums/a...-16-59_747.jpg
So, I had this cabinet humidor in a room that several of us turned into smoking lounge. Had a "recommended donation" sheet in there along with a "Scott's Only" section. Came in today to check humidity levels and have a cigar. Noticed that some things were a little off. Several boxes were messed up and most telling, one of my recirculating fans was face down. I don't know about you, but I'm kinda particular about how my humidor is. So, I decided to look around a bit. HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!! First thing I checked was the Cuban boxes. MISSING 18 Cuban cigars...including 8 Trinidad Fundadores, 5 Monte Cristo #2, and 5 Cohiba Siglo VI's. Panic sets in. Someone went through my cabinet shelf by shelf. Left the bundles, the Gurkhas, the Padilla's and Perdomo's. Took the Diesel, the Fuentes, Punch, Fonseca, DPG Blue labels, Tatuajes, and a ton of others. Total, about 60 sticks. Whoever it was, knew what they were doing. They took the good stuff. The expensive stuff. I'm gonna go cry. |
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Time to use that lock now. 60 sticks is a ton of loss. Sorry to hear that man
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Key is in my pocket. Cabinet comes home tomorrow. So upset.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
That sucks man! you must have a hunch who it might be.....can you get homeowners ins to cover losses?
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
WTF... where is this room, in some shed out in the boonies? How many people have access? I'm wondering if this was more like an inside job. This SUCKS man I'm sorry.. yeah I'd be ****ing pissed too.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
This is WRONG!! So you supply the room, the sticks and only use a 'suggested donation' sheet and someone decided to be greedy! I'd close the room down and make it your room only. That really blows Scott, I'm sorry to hear this.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Damn It Man, That really sucks!!! Hope you find the guilty party.

Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
That sucks man. You must have some clue to who it was right? I mean it's limited access to the room correct?
Edit: you posted right before me. Hopefully you'll find something out. |
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Damn brother that really sucks. 60 smokes is one hell of a hit. Find the guy and beat his ass.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
If you find out who it is and you're having trouble getting them back PM me. I'm less than 2 hours down 90 and don't know anyone in Fairmont so... I can drive in, smoke one with you, punch the jackass in the face and then go home.

That sucks ass Scott!!
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Unbelievable. Whoever did it is obviously a cigar smoker who knows his cigars, but not one that I would ever call a brother. That's entirely scum of the earth type stuff right there.
Good luck on getting your sticks back or at least finding out who did it. |
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Def sounds like an inside job. Somebody knew what to look for and where to find it.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Just sucks every which way but loose, Scott. Sorry to hear it.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
The cubans hurt the worst....most everything else is fairly easily replaceable....not inexpensive but replaceable.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
So, where is your humi? In a building, not at home?
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Yeah...one of my friends owns an old building downtown. We converted the back room into a private lounge and the rest into a private movie theater...liquor lockers, full kitchen, etc. It really is a cool place. Just, sadly, not a place I can leave my cigars anymore. They've been there for about a year with no problems at all. Really sucks.

Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
That is horrible, sorry to hear. I hope the POS responsible is caught.
That lounge looks awesome, is that a dog crate in the corner? |
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Yeah, when this picture was taken I was spending a lot of time down there...brought my laptop down..did a lot of work from there and brought my Lab down with me.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
That sucks! Hope you get some answers!!
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Guys, I appreciate the thoughts...I was pissed and needed a place to vent. Being that they are cigars that were taken, I figured you guys could empathize. Gonna go try and sleep it off. Hopefully, tomorrow will be better.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Wow, that sucks Scott. Hope you are able to find the dumba$$ that did this.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Not much worse than having something stolen. Sorry to hear it!!
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
So Sorry To Hear This, Scott. It Sucks That You Can't Trust People. A Low Blow For Sure.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Sorry to hear it.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
That sucks dude. I hope you figure out what dipsh!t jacked your sticks.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
I know a guy who can can have a chat with the thief :sl after you catch them........sorry for your loss
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Wow Scott. That is unbelievable, can't believe that someone would take advantage of your generosity like that! **** they are right there to enjoy with brothers anytime and someone steals them!?!? What a scumbag. Sorry for the loss brother
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
I'm sorry to hear that man. If you do find out who did it, there's a lot of lakes up north. People fall through the ice all the time. Unfortunately, the fish often finish them off before the ice melts and they're never identified. Just saying.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Wow Scott that blows. I hope you find some kind of resolution. There are some untrustworthy people out there, sometimes CA makes me think all cigar smokers are good people. Good luck Scott!!!
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Sorry brother that sucks!!!! Hopefully you find out who took them, throw them out and get some of your smokes back!
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
hey scott i hope you find out who it is. I think it is kind of strange that your cigars where the only thing taken. I think that you would have nice rare or expensive liquor in there too. It had to be an inside job... Unless some liquor is missing... You need to find out who it is, this really sucks man i am sorry that you where stabbed in the back.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
That sucks man. Hopefully the person that did this gets what is coming to them. I hate when something like this happens and makes it harder to trust other people.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
I'm so sorry Steve, Was that the only thing missing? Just the cigars....If so I'm with everyone here and say it's an inside job as well, this truly sucks dude.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
That really does suck. But there is a lesson to be learned here.
Trust is earned - not to be given away. :2 |
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Sorry to hear Scott...hope you catch the dirtbag.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Bad deal. 99% of the people in the cigar hobby are good people who take care of each other while the remaining 1% are a few scumbags. We don't run into them too often but they are out there.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Terrible! It's on the theifs conscience. I go up to Vancouver BC every now and then to get my Cuban fix. By Canada prices, you're out quite a bit of dough. Hope insurance covers it. Damn!!
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
That really blows. Sorry to hear about it. Hopefully you find the person responsible.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Ugh. Sorry, man. That's the kind of suck right there.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Thief will return to the scene of the crime. You may want to formulate a plan or amnesty route for Mr/Mrs.. Scumbag. Too many cigars to smoke. (he/she) still has them, and if they have a conscious they are starting to burn inside with guilt. I would make a poster with a drop box or instructions on how to return the stolen goods. Can't hurt and gives you something to do other than fry eggs on your forehead.
Sorry for your loss. |
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
This is horrible, Scott. Best of luck in finding out who did this.

Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Scott, sorry to hear about the loss of your cigars from the community smoking lounge. Hopefully, you will be able to put together some facts and locate the subject.
Question: Is this community smoking room one that is lockable? If so, who else may have a key(s) to this room? Who used the room between the last time you accessed the humidor and when you noticed the loss from your humidor? Finally, I think I would simply keep my "inventory" at home from this point on. You can still use the community smoking room sans a humidor in it. Its a shame I know, but if you do not know others who may have access to this room, then you're simply taking a big chance (unless you enjoy playing Russian Roulette with your inventory):tu |
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
That really sucks! I hope you find the guy and your cigars!
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
thats a sick hangout---this is bullsht ill come over from NY and help you tune whoever it was up.......
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
That sucks BIG time.I would be willing to do bodily harm and so should some of the other guys that hang with you.Its a shame when some scumbag takes advantage of a good thing.
|
Re: I've been robbed!!!!!!!
Thanks for the support guys. Humidor is home, where it belongs. Lesson learned. Unfortunately, out looks like a ton of people went through there this last week. The building got rented to three different groups for parties. Gonna listen for rumors and keep an eye on craigslist.
