BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.
Wholesale/Direct from manufacturer prices?

Post lots of pics and every detail of the process!
What cigars would you legally buy that you'd want to age for 20-30 years?
But seriously, DO IT!!!!

I'm a retailer and half the time I can buy cigars cheaper on c-bid, not that I would.
First off all cigar margins are miniscule to standard mark ups. In most states you'll make a 50% margin at best. If you go on Famous or Cigars International they have such huge buying power with no state taxes that I can practically buy cigars from them cheaper then I get wholesale from manufacturers.
B&Ms are a thing of the past I think for the most part. There is very little margin and you have to diversify the business just to make a profit. Its a sad reality but you don't get in this business to make money it's purely a love for the leaf.
