  1. Default Hello, new to the hobby.

    Hello, I am new to the hobby. How did I start? Well, my boss brought in a couple stoggies and we burned down. I thought it was relaxing as hell, so now I'm beginning to setup my own collection. The only problem, is that I have no idea what I am doing, and my boss is extremely busy- so I figured I would ask the internet.

    What are some decent smokes for cheap?
    Currently, I am smoking genuine counterfeit Cubans and enjoy them ( but I have to admit, by the time I'm done the nicotine has made me rather buzzed).

    Any way, I am looking for something around the >2$ each mark, and I do not mind buying in bulk. I prefer bigger ring gauges also.

    Thanks,
    Light

    Welcome to the board, there is a ton of info available here, so, just start going through some of the older post, and I am sure you will see that almost all of your questions have been answered before.

    As for the Counterfeit Cubans, you will prlly outgrow them real quick. My suggestion is to try the newbie sampler, here, you will get a whole lot more fo your money than if you were to try and buy some out right.


    Live each day like it's your last, one day you'll get it right.

    Welcome to the board.

    I would recommend you up your $$$ threshold to about 4-5 bucks, and smoke less to fit your budget.

    I would also suggest the newbie sampler to get a broader idea of what is out there. The sponsor may also be able to help you with larger ring gauges if that is your preference. Do a lot of searching and reading here. Look at the reviews section and take your time.

    Welcome to the forums.
