I Fail to See the Point
Simple, for me, it's because I'm a cheap SOB. I hate to waste tobacco. So when I smoke a cigar, the last inch or so goes into a cob. I smoke 50 ring cigars and they fit perfectly into the cob.- raevans

Rad Davis briar

Best place to order pipe tobacco
I mix it up mainly using our sponsors. Smokingpipes.com and P&C offer free shipping for orders over $95 and $79. Tobaccopipes.com is another site that offers free shipping for orders over $75. It depends on who has what in stock and what may be on sale at the time.- raevans
