Yours Truly, CigarMonster
I jumped on this deal! So know what?

We're biting the bullet on this one. If you checked out succesfully on the site, you're getting your cigars.

The Ricos were at our annual Cigar Expo as the deal came through on George's iPhone. He expressed his understandable dismay but it was too late to kill the deal. We're not under any legal contract with the Ricos. But we have a fantastic relationship with them and certainly don't want to hurt their business in any way. Hence, a public apology seemed more than appropriate.

When did this happen?
