Got these in the other day, needed to up my AJF stock for the upcoming month long. Nothing fancy, but I may grab a few boutiques from them to round out the month we decided to do it. Also grabbed a 6pk each of La Barba Purple & Red, since they are being cut. I need to find a box or 2 of the Purples, soon.

Surprised CI collects it. NY is 75% cigar tax but last I knew all the online places collected was the 8% sales tax. If they all start collecting the real cigar/tobacco taxes then yes, they will successfully kill the online business. I've been watching this for awhile and it is coming at some point.Quote:

Depending on the local state cigar tax, may be worth it set up a receiving address by proxy in another state.

Yes, now on top of the sales taxes, there s an additional excise tax. I can't complain that much given its 6% sales and 32% excise (up to 50 cents), I know most other states have it worst.Quote:

The win price, the handling fee per unit, the shipping fee, the sales tax AND now the new excise tax per unit make them the Airbnb of cigars.Quote:

Not even three AM and already I'm the only Bum here. Could post pix of Order received before Noon today.
too lazy to do so now. Just want to say that that a most heartfelt thank you is due to My old Pal Smokin Monkey for his very much appreciated and successful efforts in tracking down the location some wheres in space (or in Captain Jack's Hideout in the Joisey Meadows)where the alien pirates were holding these cigars for ransom.
Edit: Would really be amiss if I didn't at the very least post a picture of my good pal Smokin' Monkey...jest lookit that radiant smile!
