Add another to Small Batch - these guys really know how to do it. I started with Cigarsinternational.com, but have moved on from them. There are a few others I probably forget to mention.
Updating my original post.

I still use Small Batch, but really have come to like PuroCigar, they have good prices, and are speedy and well packaged.

Some others I have used lately that are sort of obscure, Birmingham Cigars and Cigar King.

Cigarhustler.com Mike is amazing,a little more expensive than the big guys but i'd rather support the small guy and his customer service and shipping speed is second to none!

Puro is definitely bringing some good prices out.

Sbc used to be good but they raised prices a lot; some are well above MSRP so the 15-20% deals aren't really that great anymore.

I haven't really looked too closely at SBC pricing, but last order, we got a pretty good deal on HVCs...too bad they are out of the Black Friday's though.

I have been on the 2nd quarter buying freeze, so I have not done any buying for awhile now. But, I received a package from PURO Cigars last month from another Brother, and I was very impressed, with the packaging and the personal note inside explaining how I happened to be the recipient of said cigars. Very Impressed.
Just a few more days and I will be free again.

I'm a fan of Puro Cigars for the reasons others have mentioned. Good pricing, box pricing per stick for single sticks, fast shipping, and a hand written note in every order. Great customer service!

Like many others, I like ordering from both Small Batch and Puro. Unfortunately, I live in California and beginning on 1 July the implementation of the Prop 56 tax increases means that California vendors who ship to California addresses will be charging those customers somewhere in the vicinity of 35-40% higher prices. Very unfortunate for both the vendors and the customers.

#resist, eh? Lmao, that's ok, it leaves more for us Dominican fans......
Did you expect anything different? My handle says Fuente fanboy. Dominicans are underrated
Fuentes are overpriced and junk IMO. Aside from the petite lancero and casa Fuente CG.

With that being said, the only good Dominican I'd smoke is Papa Chogui
