Canadian Need Online buying advice

atreides · 02-24-2014, 06:12 PM

Hi folks,

As some of our cousins from the South of the border may know, stogie prices are ludicrous in Canada! I am from Alberta, Canada and I was wondering if anyone from my side of the border has any experience buying online from American or Canadian websites - how to deal with the taxes and what not - and any recommendations?

Thanks

Per our rules (which I am sure you've read), we need to be careful here.

No discussions of Habanos vendors. And no discussions on how to evade duties. Any public discussions need to be above board.

Rules makes sense but I was wondering if anybody from Canada would recommend any American vendors they regularly buy from and are satisfied with their customer service?

Rules do make sense.
I was wondering if you'd happen to have read them?

No issues with your clarification.

Some of the information is a little dated by now, but the later posts are fairly current:
