Why the heck would they hire a guy to work in a cigar store who's never had a cigar?

I did this same B&M (Davidoff vs JR cigar) run in NYC in early Sept. I too was completely overwhelmed with JRs selection of smokes.

As far as the clerk who "never smoked a cigar". I noticed in the half hour I spent there, they like to mess with the customers a bit. Its our east coast sick sense of humor.

For example, I asked the clerk ringing me up if I could buy some of the 5 finger bags that they pack your cigars in. He said that he absolutely could not sell me those bags, rang me up and then said, naww, im just f-ing with ya... and gave me about a dozen for free.
