My point is that many of us have spent years finding vendors, etc and when a 2 day old member joins and asks for our 3 Best Retailers, it sort of rubs me the wrong way. Do some damn research, call vendors, price them against others, etc.
Sir, so if I understand you correctly... If I move into your neighborhood and come up to you shortly after to ask you where is a good place to go grocery shopping... Am I to understand that I do not deserve to know where a good grocery store is UNTIL I live in the neighborhood long enough to have put in my dues? Obviously the grocery store is a metaphor for a online dealer. I am not only surprised, but slightly offended by this lack of hospitality. I do not want you to mistake this as a flame, it is not. However, there was a good reason that I asked the original question. The reason was that I am a brand new member to this site. Until I asked the original question, dispite of all the links and banners, I did not know who or even if there were reputable sellers on this site. From the first 2 or 3 responses, I now know that there are plenty reputable sellers on this site and will gladly participate and purchase from cigarpass members before going to outside websites.
I am new to the world of cigars and want to fit in and get along with everyone here. As of right now, I only own 4 cigars in my humidor. I did not mean to be intrusive, all I wanted to do was add to my very small collection. No harm or disrespect to cigarpass or it's members was ever intended.
My new friends, lets all go enjoy a cigar now. (Damn, I am down to just three!!
)
