Famous has impressed me

I ordered two boxes from cigarmonster on Sat, they shipped yesterday, and UPS just dropped them off to me today. I'm quite impressed with the quick shipping, free quick shipping that is. The only unfortunate part is I now have 80 Petite coronas and no room in either of mu humi's. I was planning to put together a tupper-dor tomorrow.

Re: Famous has impressed me

They can be real quick at times then take 5 days to get something else. They do have great deals.

Re: Famous has impressed me

It's just like CI. I just placed an order about 3 hours ago, and it is already packed and shipping. UPS will deliver on Thursday. It all depends how far you live away from where they are shipping also.

Re: Famous has impressed me

I've never bought anything from the Monster. Just luck of the draw, but they have never had anything I was interested in when I checked. Even so, I check at least daily.

Re: Famous has impressed me

Re: Famous has impressed me

You are lucky, you live somewhat close to them. I am in CA so it takes 5 to 7 days. I am expecting my first order the 29th and 4 more on the 31st.. But it's is free shipping and good deals. I can't complain. I do like monster though. I have it as one of my favorites on my iPhone and check it all day at work...

You can thank my employer, UPS, for that. We are the best.

Props to UPS. I love seeing that big brown truck. Their tracking system is much better than USPS, and i can always trust my sticks will arrive in 2 days, in good shape.

Re: Famous has impressed me

Funny story. One time I got pulled out of the city and sent to New Staton, PA with a set of doubles. On the way back I pulled a Harrisburg load and I'm pretty sure my Flor De Oliva's were in that trailer. So I kinda helped deliver my own cigars.

Re: Famous has impressed me

Even saying the words "tracking system" and "USPS" in the same breath cracks me up. That isn't a tracking system. It basically says the package "may or may not have been sent" and then nothing until the package has arrived. Well I know when it has arrived I see it at my house. I want to know when and where it is in between. What a joke..

You ain't a' kiddin'. USPS scans a package a total of twice. UPS scans and tracks that package coming into a facility and leaving it.
UPS delivers anything east of the Big River in two days. It's amazing. Then again, over a hundred years of doing something... you get pretty good at it.
