I regret waiting so long to take cigars seriously.

I also regret buying so many "Budget cigars" now that I really know what I like to smoke.

I bought 30 Carmen Rodriguez custom rolleds some time back. They were outstanding, the best custom rolleds i'd ever had. Like some strange fusion of a VR Famoso and a Hoyo Epi2. And they weren't crazy expensive. I hate myself for not buying all of them

Me too. And it's not that I didn't like the cheaper sticks at first, But being active here and on CS has shown me a lot more sticks I like better.

I regret buying Rocky Patel R4's. Twice.

I regret not listening to the masses and buying small humidors. First a 20 ct, then a 100 ct, then another 100 ct, somewhere in the middle 2 ~30ct tupperdors... now I'm planning on converting a steamer trunk into a humidor

It wasn't my doing, but I still regret it. A very generous BOTL who seems to have since fallen out of the scene hit me with my NST, and included not only a nice selection of sticks of a variety of origins but also some homebrewed beer and some kind of lambic concoction as well as a smokers candle. He had a Trinidad ISOM or two in there and the box they originally came in. It was a very nice NST.

Unfortunately, the package got beat up in USPS and by the time I opened it, the candle and its glass were smashed and the smell was on everything. A total write-off, as the fragrance from the smokers candle was really more than I wanted even as a do-dad box for the cigar box. I never told him about it, just posted the contents on what was intended to be a great NST and thanked him for it. Come to think of it, I might have PM'd him that the mail had dinged it up a bit a couple of months later, but I didn't tell him the sticks were ruined. Since he's no longer active that I know of, I figured I could let the cat out of the bag now without him finding out and trying to send me another batch of sticks.

Trying to load up on cheap sticks then deciding that I rather go for quallity then quantity.

I think that I made the same mistake as so many others. I found c-bid and decided that, I couldn't not bid on these because they are such a great bargain!

Little did I know that there was a reason that no one had bid on these sticks
