CI Brown Bag Sampler

This is the description that they give on CI...

For 20 bucks, go ahead and throw a Brown Bag Sampler on your order!

We sample a lot of cigars around here (that’s called Research & Development you see) and as a result we end up with tons of open boxes in odd quantities. In fact, on a recent stroll through the humidor I was struck at the number of such boxes. They’re in perfect condition but I can’t sell them as is with opened packaging. So let’s do a little experiment: we’ll pack up a ton of these loose cigars – all solid premium blends – into a bunch of CI Brown Bag Samplers, each chock full o’ ten different handmade, long-filler brands. Selection always varies, but you can expect some really nice cigars in there, including a variety of blends and brand names with no junky reject crapola. It’s like a box of chocolates!

*limit of one per customer, please


They Promise "No junky reject crapola" and expect some really nice cigars in there. WRONG I got mine in today and the nicest stick in there is a 5 Vegas Gold and it is so smashed on the head that it's probably unsmokable. there are a few other cigars in the bunch, probably 5 of the 10, that are extremely damaged as well. I would not suggest this to anyone, but what can you expect for 20 bucks. I guess you always get what you pay for. Lesson learned: if it sounds too good to be true, It is.I'm done with my rant now
