Best way to build you smoke portfolio?

dsaylesdsayles Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 123
I am really enjoying the site and have tried some new smokes since being on here reading different reviews and all of you guys personal favs. I finally bought my first huni 3 weeks ago and was wondering the best way to start getting it filled with some variety. I thought about purchasing online from here but with never doing so I don't know the quality or condition of the smokes. if I do buy from here should I stick with daily deals or ampler packs. And thanks to everyone in advance. By the way I am currently enjoying a Por Larranaga cabinet Seliccion as I type. By the I have 7 smokes in a 100 ct woohooo.

    Well you are off to a good start with a decent size humi! What I would suggest is email tim "the beard" Blythe here at cigar.com. He will always steer you right in terms of price and service and knowledge. Tell him what cigars you like and what you like about that particular cigar and he will make some reccomendations. The quality here is off the charts! If there is ANYTHING wrong with your order or sticks, they will fix it at no cost to you. Humidified shipping and it is very safe for the sticks with the air pillows they use. tblythe@cigar.com is all you need my man!

    I think I replied to the other thread but I'll say it here too. Samplers let you try a lot of sticks at a great price and its not a big deal if you dont like it cause you only had one. If you dont like a daily deal you are stuck with 9 of the same stick. I got a medium bodied sampler when I started out and it was a great choice.

    Welcome to the forums! Ccom has always had the best quality and condition of cigars of anywhere I purchase from, be it online or local retailers. Something I would suggest in order to try out different sticks and fill out your humidor is to sign up for Ccom's Cigar of the Month Club. Have been receiving the CotM for about 9 months now & have been turned on to some really good sticks I would never have tried otherwise.

    hey man welcome to the forums. I agree with all thats been said so far, ccom has the best customer service and quality product, Tim and the gang will take good care of you. Daily Deal's and samplers are the best way to get some variety, and once you get some inventory in your humi you can begin to trade with your fellow BOTL's for different sticks! have fun here man there are a great bunch of guys here and tons of useful info

    Definitely call the customer service line...... Tell 'em your situation, give 'em an amount you want to spend and they'll hook it up.

    Welcome. All very good advice here. Where I got most of the things I normally wouldn't have bought would be in the trades, passes, and bombs. Lots of fun and the stuff you can get there is pretty sweet. I would say def. call in and see what they can do for you. Jeff Jackson really hooked me up with my 1st major order with a great selection of sticks.
