When it comes to buying at the shop, I don't think I've ever bought more than 2 of an untried cigar, and only then from a maker I trusted. So when I have a bad single, I just don't buy it again.
And this is really the crux of what I was getting at. I suspect I was misreading posts to indicate that you should buy more of a cigar you didn't care for and rest it to see if you liked it better later. I wasn't reading it as though you'd already purchased multiples. I guess because I don't buy 5 packs of things I haven't tried before. I give one a try and then decide if I like it enough to buy a 5 pack and then after those 5 decide if I still like them enough for a box.
