    Default Davidoff, VSG, Cuban Cohiba, etc Freebie

    While browsing this past issue of Cigar Aficionado, I came across an ad for Cigar500.com stating that they were giving out a single free cigar to CA readers who visited their site. This has been done many times before by other companies, but this site is offering cigars like a Cohiba Robusto (isom), Monte Edmundo (isom), Ashton VSG, Davidoff 2000, etc.

    As it turns out, you still have to pay $1.00 for "handling". So, while the cigar isn't "FREE", you still get free shipping and a $15+ cigar for $1.00. I got the Cohiba Robusto.

    Steps:

    go to www.Cigar500.com/specials

    enter key code: CA1000

    and pick your stick.

    I got an invoice within 5 minutes of the order, so things are looking good. I'll post again when the cigar gets here (hopefully it WILL get here!).

    I can enter the code, but it doesn't seem to accept it.... keeps resetting

    Sounds like a good deal tho

    Is that the issue of CA with all the articles on Cuba?? gotta look closer when I get home

    Hmmm...sorry you're having trouble with it.

    For reference, it's in the August 2007 CA with Tom Beringer on the cover. The ad is on page 147.

    nice.

    Well, all of their other prices seem extremely high. I'm guessing that they're trying to build up loyalty and confidence among potential customers by giving out free cigars, and hoping that recipients will come back there for business (and spend more than they would at another vendor).

    I am sure it is a legit offer, however with the way the OFAC has been cracking down on Americans trading Cuban goods recently, I would be weary of who gets my info if I was a citizen.

    Heh, I'll confirm both once I get them. I am happy to be a pioneer here and take one for the greater Cigarsmokers team. Especially since by "take one", I mean "potentially get a world-class cigar for a buck".

    No charges yet to my bank account...which can be interpreted as both good and bad. The cigar hasn't shipped yet, but at least my bank account hasn't been robbed.
