Looking for suggestions

I am looking to get around 30-50 cigars.

I have a 100 dollar budget.

Can anyone suggest some good samplers? I am not a experienced smoker, however I have been smoking long enough to know what a good cigar is.

It just gets frustrating with SO many brands and SO many retailers out there.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Looking for suggestions

I love Rocky Patel The Edge Maduro. Great smoke for the price! For any price really - this is one of my favorites. I'd pick up a fiver of those. Check out CigarBid.com. (But brace yourself - that place has a way of sneaking up on your credit card )

http://www.cigarbid.com/auction/lot.cfm?lotID=493647

http://www.cigarbid.com/auction/lot.cfm?lotID=495122

http://www.cigarbid.com/auction/lot.cfm?lotID=493623

http://www.cigarbid.com/auction/lot.cfm?lotID=493653

http://www.cigarbid.com/auction/lot.cfm?lotID=495062

^ Just a couple of ideas. All are great smokes. If you cant tell, I love the rocky patels.

I would recommend checking out the above listed sites and comparing the different samplers they offer. All are great retailers IMO, and their prices are very good. Some of them will let you create your own sampler from singles they offer as well. I don't know that you'll get as many cigars as you want for your $100.00 unless you pick up some overruns, seconds, or some of the cheaper sticks offered. Check out TXMatt's Cheap Smoke Thread as well for some awesome deals on good cheap smokes.

Re: Looking for suggestions

Cigars International has some great samplers, all of which can be had for much less on their sister-site Cigarbid.com.

Here are two samplers in particular that I would personally recommend. They can each be won for around $37-$50 on CigarBid.

http://www.cigarsinternational.com/p...ext=top%20tier

http://www.cigarsinternational.com/p...doubl%20maduro

If you like CAO cigars (I do), the CAO sampler might be a good choice. It can be had for around $60 on C-bid.

http://www.cigarsinternational.com/p...=cao%20sampler

If you do take the plunge on C-bid, be sure to familiarize yourself with their shipping policies and options first. I hope this helps.
