Some of their prices are excellent (Ashton ESG/VSG). Others are rediculous (Anejo). Would also be interested to know.

Same site I asked about a few months ago and never got a reply. So I chaulked it up to way to good of a deal. I like the prices on their ashtrays.. Oh, well hope you get an answer.

Never heard of them myself but looked at site and some prices seem too good to be true, Knockoffs Maybe????

This item is about $100 under normal pricing for Boston Cutter, looks like one but notice the name Boston is not mentioned: Our Price: $187.50, Normally sold around $285 - $300.

I own one of the Boston Cutters and while there are "copies" of these they are not the same at all, I promise you. I also own the "Little Guy" V Cutter and there are exact copies of these in cigar shops and online. Again, these are copies and while they look like them they do not operate the same. The copies of the "Little Guy" are a POS and do not operate with any kind of precision,,,they are stiff, they do not slide easily, they don't cut the same, the materials are cheap. Yes, they are expensive as I paid $100 for "The Little Guy" 10 years ago,,,but it cuts the same today as it did when I bought it,,,like new.

Never have seen a knockoff of anything that was any good! At their prices some of the stuff has to be fake.

Most of those prices are below any MSRP I have ever seen. In my opinion, they are too good to be true.

I think this is a sister site to another online retailer, if you look at some of the pics on egars, it says niceashcigars.com. So I went to Nice Ash's site and the prices were very similar (some things were higher others were lower) and both sites are offering a deal when you buy singles of the CAO Soprano soldier and CAO Mx2 toro, so who knows?

I know that Nice Ash has some great pricing on DPG stuff like the Black Label. MMMMmmm.........DPG Black Labels....MMMMMMmmmm
