    Partagas Serie D No. 3 EL 2006

    Another great review Greg... I was wondering what was going on with you, not posting reviews for a while... I was going through withdrawls! I have had a few of these. I didn't much care for them young, but they seem to be aging nicely... :thumbs: I hope you are back to 100% soon... Regards, BT

    5.0 Earthquake - who felt it?

    I'm in Riverside, and the house shook like crazy! Threw the laptop down and ran upstairs to check the kids... Best one we've had in a while! Hope everyone's OK out there... Regards, BT

    Looking to take up Golf

    Right off the 55 in Santa Ana (you live in Cost Mesa, right?) there is a Roger Dunn Superstore. They have boatloads of used clubs at a good price. Go in there and tell them you are relatively new to the game and need some advice. They usually aren't super-friendly, but should get you on your...

    Ramon Allones box question

    Marc- I believe this has been discussed at length here before. You may want to try a search. If I remember correctly, your box has been through some kind of secondary "check" by Habanos... Hope that helps! Regards, BT

    Black Widows - how do you get rid of them?

    Rod- I live in SoCA too, and I used to have a big problem with them as well... After we had kids, I had to make sure they were gone... We went with a company called Anti-mite, but Terminex and others offer the same service. They come in once a month and treat outside, for about $40.00/month. If...

    I Got Rooked...

    I agree, I think... :rolleyes: If they were legit, I would have let the world know... CUBANS MAN! :laugh: Again, I intended this as informational, to illicit conversation, and maybe to rant a bit. I do believe this post has some merit/educational value. I just won't spend money there... I...

    I Got Rooked...

    My "real beef" is I feel it is bad business, period. If the cigars were authentic, the B&M is providing a true service to his customers, IMHO. But they weren't, and were pawning them off as real. Who's to say their AF's, AVO's, and Pepins were real then? Do you really want to take the chance...

    I Got Rooked...

    I wasn't "crying foul" or "bemoaning getting the shaft" MiamiCubano; I believe I made it clear I knew what I was getting into. My problem lies in the fact that this "merchant" finds it to be OK to try to pawn-off fake contraband goods to his customers. It seems bad-business to me. I wanted to...

    I Got Rooked...

    I agree 100%. The whole scenario stinks! I am glad, though, that all it cost is $40 to learn about these morons... I will out via PM Ironpeddler... I think that's best. Regards, BT

    I Got Rooked...

    No worries H3110LHD... I didn't go in there looking for Cubans, real or fake. I just wanted to look mostly, and maybe grab a HTF legal smoke for poolside... Random B&M's are usually good for this... The main thing for me was to make sure no one patronizes these establishments, and to look out...

    I Got Rooked...

    The way this went down, and the arrangement/the way they kept the fakers, I am hard-pressed to believe the owner knows nothing about them. There was literally 15-20 of each vitola, and probably 12-15 different marcas. The only reason I haven't outted them is the off-chance that the guy...
