Thompsons Brand . . . Good or Bad??

**jaewing** · 04-04-2005, 02:30 PM

Thanks for all the info.

I ahve ordered from Thompsons . . . just not their brand before. So far all I have ordered were some samplers. Great price too. After checking around their box prices are alot higher. As with anything you have to shop around to get the best prices.

Thanks again guys/gals.

I've been able to find some good prices by running searches on Froogle...

Type in Ashton VSG for example and then click "Price Low to High" in the left hand menu. That sorts by best price and Voila! Beats sifting through the top 50 organic results and looking through each product one by one.

Anybody else try famous-smoke.com that Chrisboy recommended? I'm looking for a reliable online dealer, and my highest priority is finding a place who sends cigars in good, no great condition. Good prices are my second priority.

I'm also looking at seriouscigars.com and tbs-cigars.com

Any comments on your experiences with these places or others would be helpful!

Sorry for the shameless plug, but I own and operate http://www.caminoviejo.com, although my selection is currently a bit limited, I pride my self in storing cigars in optimal conditions and offer free shipping with every order. I’ve been open for just under a year now and have some excellent, happy customers.

Thompson's actually got me started with cigars. I responded to an insert add for a humidor and some cigars. I got a nice 50 count humidor, a lighter, cutter, and 50 house brand cigars for around $40. The cigars were OK but the humidor has worked great (unlike some others - see other post

). I was in their cigar club for a time and got some nice Drew Estates smokes for a decent price.

I recently ordered a sampler pack from Famous Smokes after I saw an ad in the paper. The cigars arrived quickly, well packaged, and in good shape and they have been excellent. I got a catalog with the order and I'll most likely be trying some of their other samplers in the near future.

I also have ordered from Cigars International with good results.

I've bought from Cigar Internationl, no problems.

I also like Lil' Brown Smoke Shack (www.lilbrown.com) where I picked up a nice box of Montecristo Platinum Por Delacroix (Tube) delivered for $94.50 (best price I could find). Although now I see that you must call for the price.

Have also bought from www.gttobacco.com and had no problems there.

Cigar International & Famous Smoke Shop have been a real value to me. Very good in both quality and price.

I've bought from Famous-Smoke, CigarsInternational, SeriousCigars, JRCigars, AtlanticCigars and they're all fine. Never any problems with any of them.
