question on cigar.com

[R10]

Have used cigar.com in the past - no problems at all.
Lately have been using Atlantic Cigar for 5 packs, good service and good prices. If a size I want isn't available they tell me up front (if online order they call me) - not just substitute - good people (so far).

I thought parts of the web site looked vaguely similar.
Well unfortunatley if this is true, not a site I will order from.
Why two different online sites, for the same company?

cigar.com is their upscale storefront- more professional descriptions and higher prices. CI is less formal, more user and staff reviews and specials overall.

Oh, and cigar.com ships in a sealed plastic bag with a humi-care pillow, cigars international doesn't.
