So. I go to place an order at Taboo Cigars on friday, I've placed a few orders, but I'm not what you would call a heavy customer. I place an order on friday. I get laid off the same day.

I call Patrick at Taboo and ask if he can hold the package, and that I get laid off. He says call me back and I will see what I can do. I call back later and they catch it at the post office. We shoot the **** for a little while and I thank him for catching the package.

Today I get this:

In this:

I call Patrick and tell him, "Dude, you weren't able to catch the package?"

He says

"Is it long and rectangular?"

I say

"Yeah"

Patrick says

"Yeah thats just a little something me and Rob sent you, a free sampler ten pack"

Needless to say I was speechless, and babbling, and trying to keep track of two conversations at once. I had to let go of Patrick to talk to financial aid at my school, but *DAMN*

I am going to have to spend a lot more money at Taboo when I have it

That's one of the most impressive examples of customer care I've ever heard of. Thanks for letting us know so we can show them that a small act of generosity will pay off for them fifty-fold.

I was just telling them how great they are when I was ordering the Oliva V/Taboo email special. I really appreciate their service and low prices.

I called Taboo to tell them I thought it was a class act on their part too!

Taboo sounds likes like a great company. It is stories like this that makes me want to buy some of their sticks. And stories like this pop up every week. As soon i get some extra money i will be placing a order on some samplers. :ss Keep up the good work guys!

Just another reason why we should all support Taboo. We already know that their cigars are good.
