Related Sites and Cigar Companies

I have a question. What sites are owned by who? I was starting to see a trend...look at voila and neptune cigars...the sites are somewhat similiar.....

I received an email for www.mondocigars.com also and there beta site looks kind of like theirs as well. Is this common and I'm just not seeing it until now?

Welcome to CS Joe. Some of the guys here can fill you in better on some of this but I think c-bid (The Devil) is the same as Cigars International and Cigar World is somebody, I don't really know, my wife called in the middle of writing this and I comletly lost my train of thought! Anywoo welcone to CS again.

Its a similar story as with the cigar magazines. They all seem to have a certain patron, and mysteriously promote the same cigars that the parent company sells.

Altidas USA has controlling interest in JR's. I think JR's and Cigar Magazine are also owned by the same company.
