    The freebies cool --- but those prices aren't much of a deal IMO (pretty sure they're about normal prices). can definitely get most of those brands for less $$ if you're patient and do a little searching.
    freebies not tempting enough for me, sorry ccom. Pass.

    Hate to say it but felt the same way. As I was looking through the list of boxes in the sale the prices just seemed either at or just below their normal prices. I think I remember before where they did something similar but the prices weren't listed properly so maybe that happened again because they just don;t seem like a Black Friday deal as it stands now.

    Yeah. Seems like saving five bucks, if that, and getting some free cigars, most of which are just okay. Still another five count herfador, lighter, and an Armada are worth something. Would feel better if the boxes themselves were a bit more of a discount.

    These Black Friday deals are way weak compared to some of the stuff they did in the past. There was one year the did a forum Black Friday, dear god what amazing deals.

    Just checked for the hell of it and both the Diesel Shorty and Wicked are the same price they normally are. They've got the high MSRP next to each one instead of the price they normally have them at. Definitely a disappointing BF Sale and the regular email deals throughout they year are much better.

    If it were the Melanio Torpedoes or Figurados for a similar price, I'd be all over it.

    Not to add to the negativity but...that sampler isn't worth $200. :-(

    The Gurkha is worth that by itself

    I've started to do most of my cigar shopping elsewhere. Better price year round without the unnecessary freebees I usually could care less about. Just wait until internet taxes kick in. Prices will go up even more. It seems to me that cigar.com and its sister site have not had really good deals in a very long time. The sprint sale site is pathetic. Was supposed to be something special. NOT! Folks here a very nice, but if I can save money, I'll shop elsewhere.

    Just seems like stuff that is usually up on the Daily Deal at one point or another for about the same price. Was hoping to get some stuff and show some support to CCom between the BF and CM sales but there just isn't anything really that great this year. Something like a straight across 20% would have been a better option.

    Or have a 50% off a premium box every hour. Just wont know which box and it would only last 2 minutes each hour. But only on superb cigars. No bundle or dogrockets.

    Yeah, and these don't get free shipping. There are a couple on there I like, but the prices don't seem great. Just okay. I would love some more Armada, but haven't tried the War Horse, and I won't pull the trigger at that price without trying one, first. I am out of Tat Havana VI, though I suspect I can find it cheaper if I dig around.

    I'm sure that if there were to be something on there you like, but are hesitant, and you were to email Tim what you want and ask for a better deal, that you would get it. That's what I do. That's what I get. The only time he can't is if you are using paypal to pay. That has to be done from their website only. Not email or phone orders (which is what our email orders come out to be).

    Right, and drink your coffee first, checked my account and paid much less for the Limitada's when I ordered them back in May. Couple of others as well
