I also would like to see a discount on Boxes as well...
Most of the BORK's I see here find a good cigar and then buy a box... If you had more boxes that'd be great (Not ideal to have the 4 - 5 Packs cuz I personally like the actual box, but I'm not too picky...
Also, the brands and deals you have I'm sure are hard to pick, I'd bet you just try to either move old stock, abundance stock or the like... I'd like to see a % off of a certain category (Either 15% off all Fuentes', or NUBS... OR a % off of certain types like ALL samplers or All Boxes or ALL Robustos etc...)
You can be specific about how many sticks or about the style of cigars but I'd like the idea of a choice to pick to use the discount on something I like!

Also, I cannot stop myself from buying Cigar Stuff.... Lighters, Cutters, ashtrays etc.... If you could get merchandise with certain purchases (Or at least a discount on merchandise with purchase) that'd also be sweet!

You know, I am a sucker for brand merchandise. I would probably jump on a deal with some Tatuaje-emblazoned stuff, whether that be a hat, shirt, lighter, cutter, etc.
Yeah, if you could pair the price protected brands with the non price protected brands then that'd be great. The key, for me at least, will be not pairing them with turds. I'm not buying 5 camacho triple maduros, for instance, with 5 crappy cigars just to get the camachos at a good price. Put them with some JDNs though, and you've got my money. I don't want to feel like you're trying to pawn something off on me that won't sell. I'm not saying you guys would, or have done that, but I've seen it on many, many other sites, and I don't bite then either.
Russ, not to worry. I can mix any brands I want, I just can't sell all one line or all one company. I will get some nice combos planned for you guys on some great lines. There won't be anything that will feel pawned off. I will have some fun with it! Keep em comin guys.
Awesome. I'm genuinely excited to see what comes of this.
Some of the cigars I've been buying of late, and would love to see are the Avo/Davidoff lines, Fuente/Ashton, and LFD. I know those are real strict with pricing, so I'm not hoping for anything outrageous or unrealistic. I don't want to see you guys endanger you're relationships with them just to pass us a deal.
Help us improve our site!! Please let me what brands and types of deals you would like to see more of. Make suggestions and be as specific or general as you want. All feedback is greatly appreciated.
I think its great that you guys listen to feedback. It wasnt but a few hours ago that there was a discussion about the daily deals and you guys are already on top of it. You guys are awesome!
Alex, is there any way we could see free shipping on DD's every once and a while, even if you just buy 1? This may be my frugal side coming out, but sometimes I see DD's and think, "wow, a 5ver for 17.95 is a good deal, but not for 22.95 once you add the shipping"...Sometimes I dont necessarily want 10 sticks for 35.90 just to get the free shipping...
I am a bargain shopper Alex, no budget for high dollar stuff.
+1 you actually said it better then I did.
Guess that's 3 of us, high-end cigars are a rarity for me, most of mine come from the COTM, and I DO appreciate them.
Speaking of which, I've never seen a DD on the Gran Habano Cabinet Selection.

Me too. Just last night I bought the Leon Jimenes DD because it was a 5 pack with free shipping. I've never had one of these and I have no idea if I'll like them or not. A 5 pack is pretty low risk, if it was buy 2 for free shipping I wouldn't have gone for it, I don't want 10 of something I've never tried.
I'd like to see more Don Pepin Garcia stuff on sale.
Thanks Alex, it's so great how much you try to accomodate the dreams of this forum.

Thanks for this alex, here are some brands I would like to see added to the DDs:
1. Padron
2. Alec Bradley (Tempus or Family Blend)
3.Oliva V or V maduros (i know the maduros are probably a stretch there)
4. Ashton
5. Monticristo
6. Casa Magna
7. Cohiba
8. Davidoff
9. LFD Double Ligero
10. Punch
one more note...few years ago Ccom did a weekend blitz on Padilla Miami. 20 cigars, diff sizes robo, toro, churchill, torp...for $49 i think. I would love to see a return of that one too! I still have a few from the last time the deal ran, they are aging nicely!
Love the Ccom service - thread goes up asking for more DD's and we get the head honcho asking for suggestions! Love it!! So here's my "Want to buy" list:
- RP Connecticut
- Joyo de Nicaragua Antano Dark Corojo
- MOW Virtue - churchill
- MOW Puro
- Oliva - all of them; O, V, Conn. Reserve, etc
- Padron (4000 Maduro please!!)
- AVO
- Perdomo 10th Anniv. Champagne
- RP 1999
- La Glorida Cubana Series N
- 5 Vegas
- Some mixers; maybe maduro's of a certain flavor profile, maybe some connies that go well with morning coffee, maybe some hidden gem mediums that aren't widely known, etc - Oh, and please keep the big rings coming - love me some 54+ gauges
I like this idea were you get 1 of everything the maker makes but I would rather 2 of everyone so I could enjoy the sampler with a friend without having to buy 2 of them.
Wrapper samplers I'm a sucker for as well as merchandise. I think a new release sampler would be great as well on a dd. It'd be a great way to try new stuff without going 5 or more deep on them to find it's not their cup of tea. Maybe a dd to be a guest for a Nicaragua trip? Lol
I like the idea of brand samplers that has been proposed.
I tend to be a mixed value/premium purchaser. One thing I think would be great is to put together a Profile Sampler. Use the Alex-ometer and the palates of your staff to put together a 5-er of cigars with similar flavor profiles. Maybe 2 Premium and 3 Value smokes that have similar flavor profiles.
gran habano brand sampler would be great! as well as el cobre if yall could start carrying them. and A. Turrent triple play? myabe a deal with the a turrent 3x and camocho 3x all in one! thatd be awesome!

+1 I really like the COTM collections. It allow me to try cigars I would not normally try. And the collection is usually themed or company specific. Samplers like those would interest me. I like variety. And I don't mind trying the lower end sticks. You gotta try them.
I always liked the $10 deals. these were key for me when I started this hobby. I would also like to see the Alec Bradley sampler with the Brazilian MAXX on a DD again. I think the super cheap stuff from the warehouse should never be on special though, like Pirates Gold and stuff like that. I think some Padilla would be great to see on the DD. I would also like to see some pairings like the other guys. brands I would like to see by themselves are San Cristobal Tatuaje La Flor Dominicana Graycliff (not 1666) MOW La Aroma de Cuba Ambos Mundo La Riqueza and i think some of the best deals were always the 5Vegas deals. I second the thought of merchandise as well. I know the warehouse has it so is it possible to get 5V shirts like CI has. I haven't ever bought one because I would rather buy cigars with that money but if I was to buy one, I would want to get it from you and not CCom

I'm actually the opposite. It's cheaper for them to sell it without the box and I'd rather pay a little less for 4 5-packs. I don't have much use for a box once I've smoked the cigars, but I always have use for the money I save.
EPC New Wave and/or Elencos. I'd bite on that one. Would also love to see you guys bring in some J Fuego stuff, such as the Origen, Sangre Del Toro, etc.
