Nothing has changed at the local Tinder Box

On another thread here there is a discussion of internet cigar stores versus B&M. How does a B&M like Tinder Box expect to compete when they carry the same old stuff? Some of the same old stuff is great but I want to see Esencia, Tatuaje, Jameson, Kristoff and Canimao to name a few.

It reminds me of the TV networks insisting we watch TV like we did 20 years ago. Times have changed, keep up!

There are many B&M's out there that are comfortable to not fix what isn't broke. They'll take the conservative approach and let the market make or break the cigar first rather than helping it along.
