Oliva Serie V Melanio at Freedom Fine Cigars in Naples.

Freedom Fine Cigars in Naples was awesome if anyone is in that area. Gonna try to get back there tomorrow or Friday.

It's a pretty place, wife and I love Sanibel, but have been trying other places the last few years.

Marco Island

Thanks! Yeah it sucks. I reported the card stolen, ordered a replacement DL and got a printable 60 day temp certificate. The CCP aggravates me the most. I guess I will put my pistol in the back of the SUV for the 800+ miles home.

Vacationing in S Florida for the month, this morning I realized that sometime in the past couple days I have lost my DL, CCP, and an Amex card. Just gone, no idea where. Called all the places I have visited, including a local cigar lounge, but they are nowhere to be found. Definitely changed...

That's a slick app, I made an account. Now I can spend this evening transferring info from my SS and reorganizing it there. Win/win 😂

Thanks a ton guys! I have been watching the Todays Smoke thread, and the Todays Cheap Smoke threads among other's and building a 'want' list, these recommendations are going to the top! Does anyone else find the logistics of tracking inventory and future purchases almost as enjoyable as the...

I have read up on the newbie trade thread and plan to give it a try in December. Going to be out of town next month and don't want to endanger innocent cigars while I am away 😁

What would be your 'must haves' to start it off? Mine is not completely empty, but I have been buying samplers mostly so it's a mishmash of stuff. I would like to start building a quality collection and would love to hear suggestions from the experts. No CC's obviously, I don't have access to...
