Ordering cigars online

So here's where I stand. I'm slated to start my sophomore year of college this coming August, and I just turned 19. I wanted to celebrate turning 18 with a good cigar, something light, but I missed that deadline

I have a slight case of cerebral palsy, so I don't yet have a license; as a result, I can't drive to my nearest cigar shop in New York State. I'm looking for a decent website that allows me to buy singles as well as boxes, cheaply. Perusing CigarFox.com, I like everything about it, but I'm underage apparently; is that something that is checked heavily, or could I slip through their system and order?

You need to understand, I don't want to break the law, I just want a good smoke at a good price. I was considering the following singles:

CAO Gold Corona
Arturo Fuente Curly Head
Trinidad Maduro Toro
Cusano M1 Corona
Camacho Baccarat Rothschild
Santa Damiana 300

If you can recommend better starter smokes, let me know. I saw that sticky that was posted for newbies, but my questions remain unanswered: why are they good? And please keep in mind, I'm in the U.S, so no Cubans (Thank you, Mr. Kennedy). Maybe when Fidel dies, Raul will embrace democracy, hm? Pointless embargo, really...

Thanks for the help though,

Kegan

Re: Ordering cigars online

The only place that has ever asked me for ID was JRCigars and that was only after I ordered for years.

Re: Ordering cigars online

Is that from all retailers? I've never been questioned and I've ordered A LOT from the Net.

Some retailers have 18, some have 21. Personally I'm not 21 but I've never had a problem ordering from Famous or C-Bid.

Re: Ordering cigars online

I've had great experiences with cigarsinternational.com . They had quick shipping, great prices and my sticks arrived in pristine condition!

I think in some states it's 21, and rather than try to go through some (major) hoops trying to keep track of and automate it, most of the sites just default to wanting customers to be 21.

Re: Ordering cigars online

Stupid question that I don't have an answer to: if the legal smoking age is 18, why would you need to be 21 to order online?

Re: Ordering cigars online

In NY even though the smoking age is 18 you have to be 21 to receive tobacco through the mail

Re: Ordering cigars online

Tell you what order from me and I won't even ask your age.

PM me your address and I will send you a sampler to get you going and give you some time to sort out your internet issue.

PS sampler will come from Canada so it is an approx 10 day wait but its free so hopefully the wait will be okay.
