Can anyone tell me if this is a good deal? - Mombu the Cigars, Habanos and Pipes Forum

Can anyone tell me if this is a good deal?? I still dont know what brand
names to stick with yet. These looked decent for the overall price:

Camaco Corojoa Petit $1.50 each
Don Tomas Dominican Corona Gorda $2.50 each
Don Tomas Special Edition Connecticut #600 $2.95 each
El Credito Rothschild $1.95 each
Fonseca 5-50 $2.95 each
Hoyo De Monterrey Margaritas $0.95 each

Robusto Sampler $19.95 with
2 Cohiba Rubusto
1 Creme De Jamaica Rubusto
1 Excalibur Epicure
1 La Gloira Wavell
1 Macanudo Hyde Park
1 Partagas Robusto
1 Rafael Gonzalez Robusto
1 Sancho Panza Valiente

Those looked like decent prices, are they decent cigars???

They look about average. You might shop around for a better deal on most of those.

Not too bad a price for a decent variety to try out. The problem with
buying just this sampler IMO is that shipping probably pops the price
per stick over $2.75, which still isn't too bad anyway

When I switched from A&C Grenadiers to a better class of cigars I
didn't know what I liked so I found a place that sold sampler packs
and learned. You might spend a little extra, but they are breaking
up 10 boxes to make this sampler. Buy it, actually buy 2 - I always
believe in smoking a cigar twice before giving up on it, and if you
find 1 or 2 brands you like great.

Your other alternative is to go to the local cigar shop and buy a
handful of individual cigars.

Also I noticed that cigarbid (NADA) has a Sweet 16 sampler pack that
looks pretty good if you can get it for a reasonable price, and Holts
(NADA) sells individuals so you could make up your own sampler pack.

Yeah, I've seen several websites that you can make your own sampler.

The only problem is I'm not sure what brands to go with.. Im really still
new at stuff.

If I can enlist someone to make a sampler, within a budget and preferences,
I would appreciate it

If you're old enough to purchase tobacco products, you're old enough
to make your own choices.

Get some backbone.

Wow, Im looking for advice.. This isnt a "life decision" which is forcing me
to make my "own choices", but I'd rather make an educated purchase rather
than going in blind and having someone help you start could be a good thing.

Or, you can just have people shoot you down.
