Guess I'll be looking forwards to some bulk tobacco deals on "Joe's Daily":-)

Wow! The story says that the Habana Premium B&M in Albany won't be affected. I hope that's true I love visiting that place whenever I'm in town.

The Habana Premium stores are unaffected by the move, and Pipes and Cigars is its own entity. For the consumer, there will be nothing but improvement going forward. If I weren't certain of this, I wouldn't have stayed with the company.

That's great to hear Russ:-) That is what I thought from reading the article and the many comments following thereafter. I would think with the financial backing from CI, blending tobacco quality will remain consistant and availability to other quality tobaccos will be accessable to you...

If Russ is signing off on it, I'm good with it

Hopefully it's truly beneficial for P&Cs

Thanks for your perspective on this, Russ. I'll be sticking with P&C. :-)

So we can still get Anniversary Kake? :-)
