JR Trick or Treat?

s15driftking · 10-22-2009, 11:13 AM

Did anyone buy either one of the samplers this year? If so, what was in it?

Last year's sampler SUCKED!

Hoping this year was better. I did not participate.

Me neither - I'm not a grabbag kind of guy. Cigars can be enough of a crap-shoot as it is.

I heard the JR trick or treat last year was a bust for most people.

Yeah, General Cigar owns JR, so if you like stuff put out by General then you might enjoy the Trick or Treat, otherwise I would stay away...

As I remember, some were very happy with the scwag they got last year. Not the greatest assortment of cigars but ashtrays, shirts and lighters.

Altadis owns the majority of JR not General.

some good deals to be found here but I wouldn't trust them to pick out my cigars for me. They're likely to give you the stuff they can't sell.

Sorry to disagree but Altadis owns JR's not General.

Anyone buy one? Curious on weight if it shipped yet.
Don't need anything but mystery items always get me.

JR sent me moldy cigars for this deal last year... twice! Never again JR.

s15driftking · 10-28-2009, 06:56 PM

jledou · 10-28-2009, 07:34 PM

tried again this year ... disappointed again this year

5 nat sherman tubos
3 partagas
a pack of trinidaditos (30)
and a cheap leather cigar case and lighter

I tried twice, just call me a quitter

SmokinApe · 10-28-2009, 08:07 PM

Call me crazy but I would never and I mean never do a blind buy...
