Yea it is, but I wasn't too upset with them since I got it for $43! They responded in just a few hours, very apologetically, and offered a refund or a replacement. I'll probably take the replacement at that price. I'm thinking that it was a return at one of their websites and it didn't get checked out before putting it up for sale again.

Can a guy have his cake and eat it too?

damn that's kind of amazing that they would do something like that. That's a seriously shifty move.

A few days after that they responded that they didn't actually have any of them in stock. They said they could substitute some other cigars instead and gave me a list of substitutions.

Wanting to get the entire ordeal over with a month after my original order, I agreed to it.

Let's hope that's an end to this horrible ordeal.

Glad you survived yours. You're a real hero. A bastion of hope for humankind.

Let me know when you're in the area so I can celebrate your bravery, steadfastness, and inspiration during that one time you waited for cheap cigars.
