Shipping can be a killer @ TNT (or at least it was last time I ordered) it was like $5/item, which each 5er counting as a seperate item.

Looks like it's $5 for the first item (5 pack) and $2 for each additional item (5 pack). Adds up fast...

It must work or they wouldn't do it.

I've gotten all the way to checkout and looked at the shipping costs and canceled the order at some vendors. You'd think they would offer free shipping if on certain items or if you go over a set dollar amount like other vendors do. But no, some vendors insist on playing games with shipping costs like I do when I sell stuff on eBay.

I get the privilege of paying a extra $.22 a cigar plus 8.1 % sales tax. What a deal!

I don't know if this is still the case, but the last time I ordered from TNT they offered free shipping on your entire order if you bought certain 5'ers. My shipping was going to be something like $15 but I found one of their crappy off-brand 5'ers for like $5 that had the free shipping. Might be worth poking around their site to see if you find something similar.

$63.00 shipped... $52.00 + $11.00 shipping.

Pretty good price IMO! :thumbs:

I thought I'd give that a shot and it worked for me.
I picked up a fiver of thier padron alternative (toro maduro 5er) for comparison, free shipping as you said.
Of course, I just spent 15 bucks on the hope that the smokes are close enough to the original that I can lie to myself the rest of the way!

Thanks for the tip.
