    With anything new I always go a bit crazy when ordering. Last night I learned if I use this CigarSprintSale with some patience, common sense and know my pricing before I hit confirm I can actually get a better variety of sticks staying within my monthly cigar budget.

    Last night I picked up 2 10 packs of the Torano Exodus Silver Robusto for under 60 bucks putting each stick at roughly $2.90 a stick. Every time I try to nab a deal on these at auction some idiot comes along and bids them up almost to full retail. So I think I will be checking this site first before going anywhere else.
    I grabbed the Exodus Silver for $2.68 each yesterday on the sprint. The silver is my favorite Exodus.
    Good deal brother. This is one of my favorites too.

    Been watchin for quite a bit since this rolled out and I gotta think that they are holding back on the premiums until they calculate what the take is. Until then they are puttin up items with the most built in margin. Where it wont hurt as much.Of course I could be way wrong. Theres much to consider, inventory, manufactures who are on board with this so on and so on. . Im suprised that we havent seen any Gran Habano's .

    mmmhmmm....MOW Ruinations. Like Kid, been hunting some deals today.

    Been evaluating this and there are many pros with this site... 1. Its a faster pace, they do cycle through deals extremely fast. 2. Mostly box purchases. I do tend to buy more 5 and 10 packs but its a great way to score a box of one's favs. 3. Frequent repeats so if you dont get it the first time, chances are it'll be around again. So I feel better about leavin the computer like I did today, came back and saw the same deal I missed out on earlier. 4. Cigar.com reputation and service. Top notch as far as I'm concerned. 5. Fast and free shipping. Cant beat that!!! ......Additionally I'm surprised as I havent seen cigar.com samplers packs, seen a bunch of cigar.com box's . I think the samplers would do really well.. I had more but I think I need a friction modifier in the old gear box. I'm sure I'll come up with more later....Oh Yea, Thanks Cigar.com!!!!

    Right now we only have a few hundred lots cycling though. As we work out some bugs and fetid to a few thousand and continuously cycle in now items and out old ones as we run out of activity. So good news is that ultimately there will be a ton of variety. Bad news is if you miss a lot you wanted, it could be days before you see it again.

    Just scooped up those MOW Virtue Salomon's, Awesome smoke..(edit) Looks like Alex is turning up the heat!!!

    Alex,

    Great job with the Sprintsale site! I guess that is obvious given that I think I doubled my post count in this thread alone.

    I've always wanted to try those cask strengths but they just don't seem to last very long on the sprint.

    They are excellent smokes Wes! I've had a couple of them from random samplers and they were great

    Just got the 5 vegas Miami petit corona's for under 40 bucks! Patience paid off on this one.
  • EnphraredEnphrared Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 62
    I hoping to grab some Vegas Miami's, would like something bigger than the corona. I managed to get the dirty dozen sampler late last night. Not a fan of the Ave Maria, but I want to try the cuba's, mow's, morro, and diesel.

    Anyone else notice that every item gets a sold sticker stamped on it.. I mean who is buying these Primeros Regionals. Anyone ever smoked one? Maybe the sold sticker is a default and is placed on each item whether it sells or not.

    I was thinking the same thing. I think it's a default thing

    I picked that 5 Vegas Full-Bodied 5x2 Sampler for a hair under $25, you guys think I pulled the trigger too soon? I was wanting to try some Miami's and AAA's. My bro had both in a sampler awhile back and really liked them and had me curious.

    Nope, Think you pulled right on time, If it was early only by a smidge, not enough to warrant waiting. Good Job!!. I like pretty much all the 5 vegas cept for the relic, IMO those two and the Cask strength are their best. Even better than their ltd's
