Default Re: 80 Cigar Sampler?

yeah, I'd stay the hell away from that.

edit: The 80 cigar sampler. Haven't checked the other one yet. But I never buy big samplers like this. I normally see a bunch of dog rockets/yardgars, with a few decent sticks thrown in to help the entire sampler sell. Although I did not see ANYTHING in that 80 stick sampler that interested me.

Take that 100 bucks, and get a bundle of tampa sweetheart 500 maduros, and their Fuente Work of Art sampler:

At least, if I were spending a bill on NC sticks, that's probably what I'd go for right now. I do realize that's only 26 sticks instead of 40, but all 26 of these are great smokes.

Only catch with that is:

A: Not real into maduros like everyone else seems to be, definitely a Connecticut or Natural wrapper kind of guy.

B: Surprisingly wasn't a fan of the Hemingways, I was so excited to try them, then once I did I felt let down.

I'll post another 2 samplers I was looking to get in a sec..

I'm not a fan of them either. I like most others but that one never did it for me.

As others mentioned. Looks to me like they are trying to move some stagnant inventory.
