African hello
Hi Guys,

Just joined and from South Africa. Crazy about Cigars which are subjest to huge excise and tax duties here. Our government has one of the most progressive regulatory regimes and does everything possible to inflate pricing.

Get most of my sticks from friends traveling through international duty free shops and smoke to the state every chance i get.

Pricing is so crazy here that most cigar sales have been relegated to the cheap pipe tobacco variety, which simply are not good enough after developing a taste for an honest Cigar.

Visited JR Cigar in New Jersey a year ago and felt like i was in heaven. Threw out all my clothes and brought back cigars in my suitcase.

Be back for a puff soon, Cheers

Re: African hello
Greetings from Canada! Welcome to Puff! Us Canadians also suffer some horrid taxation on our cigars, which is why we've turned to ordering cigars online! You'd be amazed at how much cheaper cigars are online rather than at the stores!
