    You want info on starting your own shop?

    DON'T DO IT

    It's extremely difficult to make money running a cigar shop these days with cigars so readily available on the internet. Not only that, the cigars that most everyone wants to buy (Opus X, Padron, Davidoff) you'll never be able to get your hands on so you'll just be stuck selling the low end stuff which anyone can get cheaper on-line. There is very little money to be made in the business and if you have to borrow money to start the business up, be prepared to lose it all once you have to fold the business.

    If you're hell bent on owning and running a shop then I would highly recommend that you BUY and EXISTING business AFTER you look at his books to see if you can really make the money you need to make on your investment.

    There are thousands of better uses of your money rather than losing it running a cigar shop. It's a lot easier and far less headaches just buying cigars and keeping your money than it is to own your own shop.
