Other than that there is maybe 2-3 peoples opinions I trust (based solely on flavor profile) and a maybe 1-2 reviewers I trust.

I refuse to buy 10-15 cigars to make up my mind on a box. That's about half a box right there. May as well have bought it and probably got a good enough deal that it would be 25% more to get a full box instead of half.
I can agree with this, I just honestly can't see myself buying a box unless I find for a really good price, I am enjoying singles and samples at the moment.

Singles & 5-packs online, mostly through CI. That is, until I found the Devil Site. Now I have a humidor upgrade on the way and more to buy!
