    Question Best cigar prices

    Has anyone done any business with "Best Cigar Prices"? Are they the "Best" ?

    prices are not bad but looks like they dont do 5ers which would turn me away and never heard anything about customer service which would be big to me

    I've purchased from them many times and are in the rotation of who I purchase from currently. They seem to be have best deals (routinely) on Alec Bradley cigars from what I see. Plus they have an AB exclusive maduro stick called Star Insignia which is one of my favorite maduros out there. Their other prices are competitive, I wouldn't say I notice a large difference higher or lower than other competitors. Their service has always been good for me. I plan on buying from them again in the future.

    Thanks for the link David! I will def check it out. What enticed me on Best Cigar Prices is their Elite Eight samples. Looks like a good way to try a few things from the same line.

    They are BBB accredited and have an A+ rating. I'd say they are safe

    They may be "safe" to deal with but just because the BBB shows that they have an A+ doesn't mean too much to me. For one, they have only been accredited for six months. That is a rather small sample size to base too much confidence on when it comes to my money. The other thing is that, again, they may be "safe" to deal with but be terrible to deal with and that could be for a variety of reasons.

    Please allow me to throw Thompson Cigars under the bus one more time, because they deserve it. They have an A+ from the BBB. If you think you should buy from them, then we are opposed in our thinking as much as day and night. They have 142 complaints over the last 3 years yet have an A+ rating. They simply suck but one could still say they are "safe" to deal with. They have awful business practices that are already well documented on this board, even though this board is very new (which should tell you something).

    That all being said, I'm not advocating to move away from the retailer in question but I would go on the experiences from others here first and foremost before putting stock in a rating by the BBB. Just my 2 cents for whatever it's worth.

    Agreed about the BBB - I will say that I've bought from BCP for 3 or 4 years now. They've been around for 10 years I think. They've been solid for me to deal with each time.

    You make a good point, all an A+ rating really means on the BBB is that the company responds to the complaints. But in my mind, if only 1 person made a complaint against this company in the past 6 months, that is a pretty good record.

    That's the kind of testimony that would lead to me having confidence in buying from them. No offense to the BBB as they do great work to protect consumers, but when it comes to cigars, I trust my brothers here much more.
