Backordering Diesel Cigars
 
I'm a big fan of the Man O War Ruination and want to get my hands on a box of the Diesel Unholy Cocktail, but the sites that sell them are all on backorder.
Has anyone placed a backorder while cigars were not available at the time for any sticks, or should I just wait to purchase when the web sites show them available?

I can't answer about the backorder, but if you pm me your address I can send you a couple to hold you over.

They are CIs house brand and have taken off like wild fire. I'm sure they will be doing another run of these and will be in stock soon. (Crosses fingers as I should have jumped on these sooner)

Thanks for posting. Added this to my watch list. Might have to blow some more cash.:ss

Re: Backordering Diesel Cigars
 
I was just looking at the Diesels today as well, and I only looked at CI but it showed backordered. I guess that is probably a good sign that they are pretty good. I would like to pick some up also. Every review I have read has been positive. We are expecting our tax return, so I thought I would irresponsibly spend some of it on a box of smokes.

I thought about contacting CI and telling them they need some type of "Notify me" option, so that people who are waiting for an out of stock or backordered item, will know when they become available, and spend their money with CI, rather than somewhere else.

I bought a box from CheapHumidors.com, but they are no longer showing the cigar so they must have sold out... Guess I got lucky!

Anyone found any boxes of these boxes still for sale yet? I am really wanting a box

Goldie 02-17-2010 04:32 PM

Re: Backordering Diesel Cigars
 
I just looked again today and saw they are still backordered at CI. Hopefully soon though...

Just picked up a fiver on CBid, sitting on them a few days while I let them adjust from the trip. Might have overpaid a bit at 20 for the 5, but I'd heard such good things about them that I couldn't resist.

CI has been out of stock on them for a while now.

Just ordered a box of Diesels from CI, got the Colibri grip cutter for a buck, and free shipping with the code http://www.cigarsinternational.com/freepmx1
Total $100.95.

Are they actually in stock? I saw them in the new catalog and thought of this thread.

Actually, no. I smoked some banana peels and hallucinated the transaction.

Kreth, looks like they're back in stock. Funny thing is I checked around 7:30 this morning and they still showed Backordered. Just checked now and they are in stock. Ripper, I think your being a little harsh, was a simple question.:2

Jeff I just pulled the trigger on a box w/ the cutter option for a dollar.

Might be worth a box purchase. It's a toss-up between these and the Reposados. :ss

Reposado '96, also blended by Fernandez and available from CI. I've only tried the habano so far, they also come in connie and maddie.

Pretty tasty. I haven't had a Fernandez stick that I didn't like.

EDIT: I could've sworn I posted a review, but apparently not.

Re: Backordering Diesel Cigars
 
Nice grabs guys. Story of my freaking life, I went ahead and spent the little bit of money I kept from our tax return, and these become available. Oh well, I will get some eventually.

Got 'em ordered...Thanks for the heads up Ripper!!!
Love to hear what you guys think after trying them, we'll have to compare notes later.

I bought a box back in January and I can tell you they are quite nice!

Very tasty, strong and burn perfectly! :tu

These are a great little smoke. I received two in the NCMAW and I thought they were great and at that price point how could anyone complain. Give them at least a couple weeks off the truck. I'm going to have to search the couch cushions for money to buy myself a box. My budget has been all blown to hell this month and it figures they come back in at that time. I'm sure once I recover they'll be back on back order.

I know what you mean John.

The box order I received today is so good I'm already trying to figure out a way to buy another!

Heck, I shouldn't have bought this one!!!

To you guys who have already tried these...
I hear they are super tasty but I'd like to know how is the draw?; I hate it when a tasty smoke has a draw so tight you can't enjoy it...I hope the draw is nice (since I bought a box)

Whynot 02-19-2010 11:14 AM

Re: Backordering Diesel Cigars
 
I found the draw on the box+ I have smoked already to be great. I did not have a problem with a single one.

Re: Backordering Diesel Cigars
 
I've never tried them before, tempted to buy a box, but maybe a 5 pack might be wise? Or are they that tasty??

Skip the 5 pack. You won't be disappointed...

I've only had one, but the draw was perfect. The Unholy Cocktail is a torpedo, so it's easy to fine-tune the draw. I'd snag a 5er if you're hesitant about dropping the cash for a box.

I have never had a draw problem and they always seem to have a razor sharp burn line. The construction on the ones I've smoked have been impeccable.

The Diesel is an excellent cigar at an unbeatable price. When I finish this box I can see myself buying another down the road...

I had one last night for the first time, and at first I wasn't really digging it, but the flavors picked up after the first 1/2" or so, and I thought it was pretty good.

Consistently the best draw of any torp I've ever smoked.
