What all of these guys said. I would also add that almost all of the samplers and what not offered at Cigars International and Famous-Smoke are offered on their auction sights. CI's is cigarbid.com and famous' is cigarauctioneer.com. That being said, always be sure to check what an item is going for on the retail site so that you don't overbid. Also, tupperware is great but it can fill up fast. If you're going to get more than 50 cigars I would recommend a cooler and some cigar beads. These are all the things I had to figure out within the first few months.
Have fun!! It's a blast
