I just purchased some CAO Sopranos Associate and Boss 20 each. got them for $140 vs $264 listed at CI.

Having an associate as we speak. It's a little tight on the pull but for an everyday smoke its average, glad I did not spend full price
As I think I would have been a little disappointed.

I say this stick is a general tobacco taste nothing real complex going on here.

Has anyone else had good luck with craigslist or have you been burned? Would like to hear from craigslist buyers.

Have a great day.

And of course it's a complete rip off, let's say that humidor is worth $1000 used, he would have to have 440 $8 dollar sticks there, I see about $1000 worth at most.

I've purchased some stuff from a guy on craigslist, met the guy at his house and he had a sweet cabinet humidor, probably a couple thousand cigars in there. He said he was only smoking cubans from there on out so he was liquidating everything else, I bought everything he had that I liked for roughly 1/3 retail price. This was a couple years ago but I remember being very satisfied with the purchase.

I often see ppl try to sell their cc cohiba, bolivar or monte, which are for sure fake.

The White House humidor is a Montecristo humidor. Very expensive, and they no longer make them. Stores got them humidor when they bought the Montecristo Whites that came in them. Most retailers sold the humidor separately.

Was in JR Cigars in DC once and they had the White House humidor. Someone asked a person who was looking at it "See a blue dress in there?" and the person said "I don't believe you know who I am or you wouldn't be saying that." And he walked away. Later the sales associate said, "You realize that was Ken Starr, right?" Probably the best moment to experience first hand.

Looks like someone tried to "humidify" the back of the box with a couple money shots....

Haha haha!!! I am glad you said it!
