I still got the catalogs, but then they sort of tapered off a few months ago. I was reading this thread when it started, and thinking "I haven't received a Thompson's catalog in awhile..." guess what was in my mailbox last night? A friggin Thompson's catalog.
ya and then after that comes the others...isnt it nice????

I was lucky; never ordered anything from them except a catalog that didn't impress me. That was enough to put me on their mailing list, but after a couple of moves they lost track of me.
A friend who actually bought from them gave me his Thompson-branded humidor. Pretty cheap, the "woodgrain finish" was some sort of contact paper. Surprisingly, it held humidity well; but it was much smaller than I needed at the time (working two coolerdors and another desktop back then), so I gave it away.
Thompson Cigars is the gift of a drunken one night stand with Jabba the Hut that keeps on giving for the next 18 years.
Regardless of what they can do, they are a vendor that any cigar bum veteran knows that they should stay away from as there are so many other better options.
