I wish more retailers would offer samplers of good cigars at a fair price. It seems the overwhelming majority of samplers are attempts to blow out cigars that don't sell without the extra incentive of what else is in the sampler. 3 good cigars at a small discount are no longer a bargain if I have to buy 5 turdsticks with them. I don't want to pay for and subsequently suffer through the bad just to save $0.50 a stick on the good. Paying $2 apiece for the undesirables kill the savings at any rate. I understand the concept and why things are as they are. I'm just sitting around wishin'.

Re: Samplers
Don't numerous brands/lines offer samplers of a specific cigar and its cousins? Or are you not, then, getting the desired discounts?Kip wrote:I wish more retailers would offer samplers of good cigars at a fair price.

Re: Samplers
That is, actually, a good idea. Thompson or CI or others could do a "Take any 10 different ten singles and take 10% off" or "Buy any 9 singles, get a 10th free" kinda deal.Kip wrote:What I'm actually looking for is someone to put together all my favorite cigars and sell them at a good discount.
