We have protected ourselves against any problems by having a thousand premium cigar collection both in Canada and at our condo in Florida/USA so that we are covered for any contingency with two thousand cigars plus my two sons need a certain supply. Always on the look out for premium cigars deals to add to the collection.

This cigar boom is slowing.. covid drove for the past 3/4 years huge and now economies all over are slowing.. in my business as well.. I love how arrogant he is. His “marketing” department told him NO signs of slowing. He would been a great mortgage broker in 2009… Also cuban stock is flowing and getting stock back meanwhile Cubans had the smallest yields in history what does that tell you.. stock isn’t moving like it DID.. now stock is freed up Cohiba & trini is fully stocked in every shop

Doing a bit of cigar shopping on St James Street on Wed, but looking forward to going to their shop (though when I called today to do a pick up, was told it was closed for renovation so will have to go to the Lime St one, oh noooooo lol).

I used to admire Mitchell, but what he and Dominique London did with the LCDH in Basel is absolutely disgraceful

What did he do?

@ludovicofusco1404 Жыл бұрын

@radiacto @suddha1 he acquired the LCDH about a year ago. He rapidly tripled the prices of the cigars (there is no monopole here), and most importantly, he is using the shop basically as a hub to sell cigars in China, because Switzerland allows to export cigars out of the country. So, local customers like me, have been sc**wed by this "gentleman" and his business companions.

@@cigarinspector2023 Well firstly they claim to be the cheapest in the UK and they are not. Secondly, and in my opinion most importantly is that they neglect to offer any tasting notes with their cigars. They may well believe that the taste of a cigar is completely irrelevant but to myself and I suspect a lot of others the taste of a cigar would determine whether or not you buy a particular cigar. If a seller can't be bothered to give me any details regarding the taste of a cigar, I won't be bothered to buy cigars from that seller. It's really that simple. They also offer very few sampler packs for those new to cigar smoking. If you take a look at Havana house or smoke king, you will find a much wider range of samplers. This is great for those new to cigar smoking and the more experienced smoker. An example would be Ghurka cigars. Both Havana house and smoke king offer three different sampler packs consisting of six cigars in each pack. This cover a wide range of cigars and flavour profiles. I think they need to give a bit more thought to their existing customers and to how they can attract new customers. I'm sure they will work it out eventually.

@@orvillefindley8117 I agree 100% C.Gars is NOT the cheapest is the UK, if you do find it cheaper at another online UK seller, Mitchell takes your money first, then at checkout (pre-delivery) they check out the other sellers offer, then refund the difference 🤣🤣🤣he really is a crook👎
