hello all..this is my first post and i want to share an experience i had. i ordered some cigars from cigars.com and although priced a bit high, they were great and packaged very well with free humidifying pillows. the next week i ordered some baccy from cigarsinternational.com for the first time ever calling them...and they already had my name, address and credit card number. wow i said, how is that? well you must have ordered before....nope. so when i received my goods, i noticed they came from the identical location as cigars.com. same company you might ask? they say no, just share the same billing department, same storage facility and apparently have the identical receipt layout. then a few months later, i order from cigarbid.com and voila..all the same again. they will swear that they are all different companies, yet i think maybe walmart is getting into the tobacco world and taking over. just kidding, i think its swedish match who owns them all....just a few billion poorer yet still a huge company in our world. the only reason i rant is because my first order from pipesandcigars.com came today....9 days after i ordered a $105 package (which comes in 2-3 days for the same order with free shipping from 4noggins) and again same spillman dr, bethlehem pa. address and same style receipt. sorry rich, i should have ordered from you but i had to try the anniversary kake. i like to send my money to the guy who not only can blend but also answers the phone and will b.s. for twenty minutes..ie rich at 4noggins. hope im not overstepping my first post rant limit..just late at night and i miss all the local shops we used to have before the big boys came to town.
