Why can't I find any 5 vegas cigars in Miami?

[Danilo]

I'm looking for some 5vegas golds... but for some reason none of the shops near me carry 5 vegas... What gives? I've been to 4 shops in the last 2 weeks, and no one carries them.

I live in Ohio same thing here too. Or none that i have found. Good luck on the find.

B&M's kinda go by trends. They stock more of the old faithfuls and the hot trends. If they have found that those aren't selling they will stop carrying them. Get them from the devil site, they always are auctioning those off.

My local shop doesn't carry them either. Not sure why. Have to check with wade on that.

yea i think its cause they are made for CI. one of the cool guys at the B&M was sayin how they cant carry em because of some contract

I can't buy anything online till the end of July... It's a bet/challenge I made with a friend (i used to buy everything online till last July)
So the online option is out for a few months.

If you have issues, give me a shout and I could get some for you, then call it a trade.

Or hell I will get a bunch or them off of C-bid and trade you for them. C bid always has a tone of those. We can find a way to get your some cigars.

5 Vegas is a Cigars International brand, not a cigar that B&M's carry.

+1. I have heard this too.

Thanks everyone for the info.
I have a friend of mine sending me a few later this week, so that's a temporary fix.

Beat me to it!

 

[Bull Moose]

yeah, my local B&M has the same attitude against certain brands and personally I think that's a load of s*** because those series A's are incredibly hard to beat for the price. I believe I got a box of 20 artisans for something like $35 shipped and I've not yet been let down...

 

[Danilo]

They are definitely not bad cigars.... There is better out there, but for the price the 5 Vegas are pretty good.

Danilo, Not meaning to hijack your thread. But this is why us noobs (no offense meant) ask these questions. We dont know which way to go but with your help we wont make the same mistakes (if there truely are any, when it comes to cigars), that the folks that are in the Know have made. Some of us have very limited financial resources (speaking for myself).**Edit** Point us in the right direction.

 

[Danilo]

Billy- Not a problem at all.

The first time I ever had a 5 vegas (a few years ago) I bought a few from CI, when I ran out I went to Famous to get some more, when I asked the guy at the store if they carry them, he laughed at me and said "No we only carry good cigars"!!!!

So I found this out the hard way that they were a CI brand. :blush:

Some guy at famous said that?? Ha!

la Floridita anyone?????
