Nubs @ Serious Cigars

[tx_tuff]

First and foremost I say buy your cigars from your local B&M, and Serious is a local B&M for me, plan on going in and picking some up as soon as I can get by there.

But if your local B&M doesn't carry them yet you can get some from www.seriouscigars.com. The owner Ron is the nicest guy you will ever meet and he runs a top notch business. I have checked around on line and he has all the sizes and the best prices I have found so far.

After you get some online (from anybody) be sure to give your local B&M one so they can see what they are missing!

Hey Frank, thanks for the tip. I ordered 12 singles one of each NUb from them after doing a little internet research and reading what people say about different vendors.

Dave Wagner, thanks a lot for offering back in Feb your help with international shipping, but this time I got lucky - a friend will be coming from US, so he'll be getting and bringing my NUbs (though I do have to wait for 20 days or so, which sucks...). When I decide which NUB(s) I like, I may still your help. :)

Thanks guys I really do appreciate the info, now its time for me to start ordering a box or 2....

As I finally got some NUbs, I want to share my adventures on the long way of how it went. Please don't take this like I'm badmouthing Serious Cigars or NUb supply chain - $hit happens to anybody. Just sharing the story.

Anyways, so I ordered from Serious Cigars on April 5 to be send to a friend in US, guessing it's plenty of time till the 17th when he'll fly here and bring them along. Gotta admit, I didn't see that it's pre-order. I got an email from them saying they haven't got any yet, but will have them soon. During the next days it didn't happen, and they offered free express shipping overnight once they get them. OK, very good and thank you, but I received an email on 17th saying they can ship them now, but no Habanos...:mad: I was quite pi$$ed off and cancelled the whole order which included some other stogies as well.

That friend of mine went to a B&M in Bay area and bought for me almost all cigars in my order, but unfortunately no Nubs...

Then I had to travel for two weeks, and decided once I get back I'll ask Dave Wagner to help me get some.

In the meanwhile, a BOTL from another forum learnt that I still haven't tried any NUbs, and he just bombed me with one each of all three types!
Got them a few days ago, and at last fired up my first NUb Habano today (http://nublive.com/forum/showthread.php?t=572)!

You see, one can rely on BOTLs a lot more than on online vendors and B&Ms.;)

Check out Atlantic. Prices are awesome and no sales tax, no tobacco tax and free shipping.

I just contacted Atlantic, because I'm not sure the free shipping and free sampler box is also for international orders.

Also, I did not yet smoke a nub yet, so I have to decide quickly which wrapper I want. I have one connecticut NUB at home, so I will try that this week.
