If anyone is looking for a cheap way to stock up on fine tobacco, this is where I go. For about $2000, I have gotten around $8000 worth of tobacco (MSRP). Great deals on both pipe tobacco and cigars. Of course, please support your B&M (brick and mortar) stores when able, but this is the cheapest way to fill your humidor. Note of caution; it is dangerous and slightly addicting. If anyone else knows of other good sites, post it!

Yeah, I always bundle/ship on one day to save some money. Otherwise, it's $5 a pop, like you say. It's another way for them to make money. I wonder (as they're tied to Cigars International) how much they actually are paying for the sticks.

I don't you to dox yourself, I'm not going to, but we used to have regular meet ups. I had a few poker games and BBQ at my house, we met at a few bars....those were fun times, honestly.

So is it every day I buy something is only $1 per item after the first one, or is it every pouch is lumped together, every cigar pack, etc.? It is not clear at all. I need to start doing that. Unfortunately you cannot smoke indoors around where I live and patios are unusable this time of year.

So, how it used to be was.....a flat fee for every item covering shipping. Buying big objects like humidors is a higher shipping cost than cigars, but minimum was $5. Additionally, you can have items you "win" ship to you Daily or Weekly.

If you buy one item a day and ship every day, then you pay for regular shipping cost on the lot. If you buy three items one day and ship that day, then you get a discount on the shipping depending on the category, but generally is a buck. So, first item is $5, second is $1, third is $1.

However, if you choose to ship one day (Thursday, for example), then you get a discount on the shipping cost for the items you buy over that week period. So, if you buy 15 items over the week, you should pay full shipping on first item and then a buck for the rest.

At least that's how I understood it. I never really bought a lot, mostly just Ashtons or a Opus (when they were available), about twice a month. I did get a few boxes over the years. Did lots of trades, so that was really how I got more sticks.

It would be awesome to find a local group that enjoys that. I live in an old 114 yr old "mansion" that I turned one of the basement laundry rooms into a billiards room. Has that cool old feel to the house. Maybe I should start hosting a club. The problem is, people always try to mooch. So you'd trade with people in your club?
