Picked up those Ninfas, been eyeing them for a week, they haven't dropped anywhere else that I've been able to find. Topped up with a 5'r of MJ12's to get free ship too.

Is it just me or is cigarpage using the cuban montecristo picture for the non cuban montecristo deal today? Last picture on the page looks to be cuban montecristo, although they may use the same band, I don't smoke too many montecristos in general.

I was waiting for a daily cigar deal from cigarpage this morning. They released the new deals at 9 am (est). I missed too many great deals before and I didnt want to miss them again. Right at 08.59.59 I refreshed the page to see new deals and the page was opened right at 9.00. Surprisingly many of the deals were sold out. Thats how they'll get people... I am pretty sure that they never released the deals which seem as sold out. There is just no way to purchase something in half second. I believe they aim people to purchase the other deals by releasing the popular ones sold out. Thus people will tend to purchase to the other regular products in case the possibility of sold out of the others as well.

I don't think it's quite that calculated. I think what happens is that they set their prices on an automatic timer to switch on the deal at 9am, but it's all pre-loaded based on their catalogue, not their supply. So when the deal turns on, it turns on for everything it was pre-set to turn on for. If some of the product was already sold out from regular site purchases when the deal went live, it just shows as sold out from the beginning.

Agreed. And even if it is that calculated, if that is the worst of their offenses I have no problem with it. Customers can choose to buy what they have in stock or choose not to.

Looking at what is out of stock for the daily deal on cigarpage doesn't surprise me. Oliva has been and still is having lots of trouble with V's and the melanios in particular. The company has been out of them and most retailors/distributors have been back ordered on them.

Does anyone know how long it takes cigarpage to ship? I'm still waiting on my first order from them that was placed on 11/18. An email to customer service so far has only been answered by an auto reply.
