    Well, the ONLY reference I could find to these cigars were in a thread at the CS board under the worst cigars ever smoked. Post # 12.

    I'm going to be asshats beware here and tell you a little story here a2vd6. Cigar boards are nothing like eBay when it comes to selling things. These boards are communities rather than yard sales and those who come here out of the blue trying to sell cigars on their first post are ALWAYS met with skepticism..

    Ever since eBay (which is a shitty company to deal with in the first place) banned the sale of tobacco on their site, we've had quite a few guys like you popping in and immediately setting up their lemonade stands trying to sell cigars on their first post.

    We don't give two shits about your eBay "rating". All we know is that NO ONE here knows who you are so I can 99.99% guarantee you that you won't find a buyer here.

    I would also suggest that you don't try this on other cigar boards either. If you do, chances are very good that you'll catch a whole lot more crap than you got here.

    Wow, I didn't think someones first post selling something would be met with a bunch of ass$le comments. I thought most of you guys were joking, so I fsomeone comes on here and tries to sell something they are automatically assumed a scammmer? WTF? Makes us newbs feel real welcome.

    A2.....calm down...as has been suggested to you by others.....

    1...newbie post
    2...fit in with the crowd
    3...ask if anyone is interested in a trade....but check out prices so that you're sure you're not gouging...

    as i mentioned....i thought that cassar's were from Nic & Hon.....i'd be surprised to see them in the D.R.....btw...i've stayed at the barcelo bavaro in punta cana....been to the D.R. twelve times...

    Now that's not very nice. Actually, CC was being pretty kind. And he makes a good point. If you think this place is bad, try to sell those at some other boards... I've seen it - and it ain't pretty (to try for yourself, go over to CigarFamily.com on a Friday afternoon).

    So why would we automatically assume you are a scammer? Hmmmm... Why would you automatically assume this board is looking for you to start off here us wanting to buy something you're selling? I dunno - don't you think that's a bit odd?

    Think of it this way. You move to a new town - you find the local hangout where everyone goes to smoke cigars, chat about things, and relax and enjoy. Do you REALLY think you'd receive a very welcome reception if you came strolling in with a trench coat, whipping it open to expose all of the watches and other crap you have for sale? Don't you think that would be a bit forward on your part??? And how long do you think it would be until you'd be tasting the parking lot gravel...

    So why don't you introduce yourself - stick around - get involved in the board. And then (sometime in '07) think about putting up some sales... Trust me - things will go much smoother...

    Whats frustrating is I actually have these cigars and willing to sell them at fair market value. I try to post some feedback as creds but it get shitted on. If people had a sec to actually look at my Ebay feedback, they can see I dont sell cigars online. Don't know but you would figure havign that many transactions would mean something.

    I think a lot of the newbs on here (myself included) feel real welcome but then again we're not trying to sell stuff right away, make a quick buck, or possibly scam someone.

    E-bay rating.... woooooooo.... cuz I can't find an account with a great rating and post it up.

    You want to establish trust... how about you send a free sample of the smoke to one of the FOGs.

    George, you bastard!!!

    Allright, take my original bid and add a big ball of used masking tape, color blue, with a nice eggplant semi gloss latex.

    And that's is the absolute best I can do.

    Jesus, twist my goddamn arm....allright, take the old brush, the stirring stick, and the tray liner...you've absolutely tapped me out.

    Man, I'm exhausted...what am I bidding on again?
