Cigary

TinderBox has been around for quite awhile but that doesn't mean they carry everything. They are good for the occasional cigar when you have golf tournaments and poker and your tastes aren't that discriminating. That doesn't mean that some locations do not carry premiums,,,they do. I knew of one in Wellesley, Ma. that carried just about every premium that was out there only because the owners insisted on carrying them for their clientele. Conversely, there are plenty of locations that carry just the bare minimum. I like the older B&M's that found a way to survive based on what they knew about their customer base. They knew how to sale their cigars because they became your friends quickly, they walked and talked with you to get to know you and your tastes,,,they appreciated your business and they showed it. I didn't care that they charged a bit more because they took an interest in you and when you did business with them they always gave me a percentage off,,,it was called the " good customer discount" and it was a win win.
