The hovering over me in the humidor really turns me off too. The posturing I've seen and general know-it-all ness from from "cigar shop" guys is always good for a laugh, but I much prefer online shopping, and its not because of pricing either, its because I can browse in peace and try things most shops don't and won't ever have.

I'm not stating its a fact for everybody, but for me, by and large, I can't stand B&M's.


That said, Winston's Humidor in Richmond VA is the exception.

I have similiar gripes about most B&M's too. There are only a few that I actually will go to willingly when not soley for the purpose of meeting up with a few friends for a cigar.

There are a few though that I won't even go into anymore because the staff or selection is so pathetic.
