All Cigar Discussion>i finally got one
Smoking Dragon 07:27 PM 05-28-2011
Since the great state that I live in has decided that I am not allowed to order cigars o line. I have had a hard tme getting to try a Vega 5 gold maduro. So I had the chance to stop at Cigars International headquarters and get one. I THINK THEY ARE GREAT! I find it to be a medium bodied smoke with good flavors that say the same throughout. I can't wait till I get another chance to stop b the CI store again and get a box.:-)

I've never had the maduro but the 5 Vegas gold was one of my first favorite cigars :-). Some fond memories. I bet its been about three years since I last had one

It is in Bethlehem, PA. It was like I was a kid in a candy store. They all looked so good, the cigars that is.

MD has a bunch of those "illegal to ship in state or sell, but legal to possess" laws. I am honestly surprised it took them this long with tobacco. Most people get around them by shipping to a friend or family member in a border state. Not that I did that when I was stuck there...

good suggestion (above).

can you use your charge card from MD and have it shipped to the state next door? Or, does the charge card address void the transaction?

Never was a problem for those who did it. Make the ship to and billing addresses different and the problem is solved.

If MD tried making it illegal for a MD resident to purchase them from an out of state vendor (instead of just selling in state or shipping in state) they would be getting too close to the commerce clause.
