It seems like its been months since theres been a weekly deal that wasnt some cheap box of bundle. Id like to see some better quality stuff up for sale, the last time I took advantage of the weekly deal was the big Padilla sale when I got 20 Dominus's for $60 shipped. That had to of been almost 6 months ago.
CI's weekly deal
- Thread starter Dread
- Start date
I agree. CI has been one giant ball of disappointment for a long time now. The Jams have been terrible. It's the same crap recycled over and over again, and the good stuff is rarely even up there. Liga Privada's have been MIA for months and the only Tats you ever see up are Havana VI's. Not to mention all of the other brands that aren't in rotation there. I've found a much better site for most of the stuff I want now anyways.

I agree. The last good deal I got there was for Padilla 1932s, and that was like February or something. I must have missed that Dominus deal, probably while I was moving, I'd have jumped on that--great sticks!
I just posted on their FB page, I wonder if Ill actually get a response
Heres what I said,
"No disrepect CI, but whats the deal with every weekly deal lately being a cheap box or bundle? Lifes to short to be smoking 75 cent cigars."

Agreed... I haven't purchased from them in months.
ci makes their living off cheap cigars...it's a site built for people who want the cheapest smoke they can get in every way.
imo...this is why they have been discussed between b&m owners as brand killers...padilla, bahia, gurkha, they've killed them all to the point that you can't move them in b&m anymore...plus i believe downgraded the quality in the process.
it is what it is and as long as internet cigar sales are available someone will be doing this.

I have never had a good 79¢ cigar just saying. And if it's really such a great cigar why not treat it as such?
Just saying you never see anything of worth or value sold for pennies.
Yea they are definetly a brand killer, I doubt Gurkha is going to have much of a B&M presence 5 years from now if at all. Id imagine the cigars they are selling this week with that much age on them probably taste like nothing at this point. They are apparently extremly mild smokes to begin with.
I deleted it, I didnt want it to turn into a facebook dramafest.

I missed this!! I logged on just in time to see it and then the clock ran out! I've been wanting to try the DPG Blue's for so long now, and they always seem to get pushed to the back of the list. :crying:
