A little suction for a couple giants that do it ri

only complaint I have about Cigars International is the name. What were they thinking when they chose the name? "hey, let's call it cigar INTERNATIONAL and ship US only". They should have gone with Cigar America, that would be closer to the truth.

They bring international offerings to US citizens. Once again all you foreigners have your perspective ass backwards!

That was my take on it. Well, except for the whole foreigners bit.

I have experienced problems with both Famous and CI, but they both resolved them to my satisfaction.

I can't say the same for Thompson.

No Jason, once again the American arrogance resulted in a name that makes no sence.

The above quote is ignorant, and is almost a stereotype.

With all due respect to all parties concerned, IMO this was provoked by the prior reference to "all you foreigners" by Jason, which is equally stereotypical, though the post contained smileys which often imply intent to apply humor. IMO, most generalizations are incorrect and unfair whether they are intended or thought to be humorous or not.

True. Intent is hard to get 'through' on the internet. I just figured DF would have used some sort of smilies in his post. It's just a sore subject with me.
