How am I gonna survive

I like his cigars, a lot. I don't care for him. On another board I belong to, he joined, was all buddy buddy, but come to find out he only joined to screw the vendors that were giving us a break on Tats because some of his vendors were whining. Considering we all were promoting his brand, I thought his methods low brow. We gave him an appropriate goodbye. Many don't smoke his cigars any more because of his actions.

This. I smoke the Havana VI and the Miami's. I like them....and, shocker, they are regular production sticks and readily available.

And, of course, this:

Cigars? I thought he made trading cards, collector boxes, hats, shirts, wine, etc. Do you have a link to cigars he makes? Sounds interesting.

For me, purposefully and artificially created exclusive shit....inflated prices.....and "rock star" image completely turn me off. Don't get me wrong, he ain't the only one who does this shit, but imo, he is the most unabashed in his approach. Craig is definitely right, it works for him. The only drawback is what it is doing to the evolving generations of cigar smokers.
