A few? What is your definition of a lot?

Nice pick ups boys.

The tax in TX I believe is ridiculously low, like 1.5 cents a cigar. One of the retailers I went to said that they only charge sales tax. It's most likely since it's almost non existant as opposed to the tax here in MI which is about 30% of the cigar's wholesale price. Overall it's a decent savings at a few dollars on some of the more expensive cigars.

good pick up mac

I picked up a little something today...The B&M has had three boxes of the cohiba black churchill's for 3 years! I always forgot to put them out, so now he's reduced the price and is trying to sell them. Can get the full box for about $230 if anyone is interested! Also, I've never seen this crystal tubo rare corojo, so I had to pick it up!

Nice grabs on some great smokes people.

Being as I haven't bought a cigar in over a year, I kinda went overboard on my first purchase...

Started out buying a bundle of Famous Nicaraguan 3000's which I thought was a nice way to ease back into. Than I rediscovered my good old friend cigarbid.com and purchased a box of el mejor emeralds and a box of 5 vegas gold. Ironically, this is the first box I have ever purchased.

I forget how slippery the slope was!

Pics when they get in.
