no names

I'm relatively new to cigars and I am just now looking to buy cigars online. I have noticed that a lot of these online stores have many no name brands at incredible prices, however I'm afraid to buy them because I don't know what to expect. have any of you tried these and if so are they any good or should i stick to my La Gloria's and Macanudo's.

Be careful. Every cigar company has some dogs they are trying to get rid off. Ask around. As stated several times in this thread there are a lot of fantastic house brands out there. There are also a lot of dog rockets. Use the knowledge of your fellow Live members. Don't be afraid to ask. Money spent on dog rockets is a crime. There are so many inexpensive good smokes out there.

I totally agree with the sampler packs. You can save money this way and find out what you like.

Could not have said it better! Listen to the above words and follow them. The guys on Cigar Live have lots of cigar experience and they are usually right-on about 98% of the time, IMHO!
Best,
