CI has always been good to me, but I can't say that JR, Famous, et. al. have been bad either.
Only one vendor that I've had major problems with, so I just won't deal with them. I won't say their name, but it rhymes with a machine gun preferred by gangsters in the 1920's.

There are several very good ones but I would classify Famous as my favorite.

I found beetle activity in a Oliva G from them.
:-) They said they'd prorate it. They have decent deals on samplers but other than that...
I like CI a lot. I've found most of purchases lately being from Famous Smoke Shop via Cigarmonster though. I always get incredible deals there. I'm gonna have to check out Silo. Ever since going to online retailers it's hard for me to buy from my local B&M.

I've had good dealings with CI, JR, Famous, Holt's, and Taboo. Wouldn't hesitate to order from any of them again.

Jersey. Yeah. Oops! It's the same name. They do have a nice well rounded sampler right now.
Mark. I've been wanting to try the Pinar del Rio's too. Heard a good review about them. I found a 4 pack sampler of them on cigar monster last week for $15. They still have at Famous right now but it's back to $22. If you want to try them this is a good way to do so. If you nab something from cigar monster and then put the Pinars and what ever else in your cart you'll also get free shipping on the whole order. If not then mine are coming tomorrow so I'll let you know how they are in about a week if you remind me.

I know people hate JRs but their prices can't be beat. Unfortunately, they sell very few cigars that I like. It's hard to pick a favorite though because I do most of my non-Cuban buying at the neighborhood store and I've never had a bad experience with any domestic retailer.
