Professor Twain Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 I know that this Board has a rule against posting sources, but this is such big news for Cuban cigar lovers across the world, I thought it deserved attention here. http://www.famous-smoke.com/cuban-cigars.c...m_content=cuban If you live in the US, be sure to click on the signup list. It sounds like they will have some great deals on 5 packs.
Puros Y Vino Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 April Fools perhaps?? Very interesting. Time to stock up before the deluge of orders arrives from the US. I wonder how this affects those who try to get them on their own. Confiscations?
tmac77 Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 April Fools perhaps?? Sounds more likely to be an April Fools but who knows
adic88 Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 Sounds more likely to be an April Fools but who knows Its an April's Fool joke, surely. Treasury can't do that for one company and not others, not without getting their pants sued off. And Obama accused of "trading with the enemy".
benjaminbbush Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 April Fools perhaps?? I'm thinking April Fools because this cannot be done without the President and/or Congress lifting the ban on trade with Cuba. Had the current President lifted the ban, then he would have certainly used this as a MAJOR PR move and it would have been highly publicized by the CNNs of the world. If the current President is trying to do this below board and sneak it through, then the FOXs of the world would have picked up on this. Since neither are railing on this point, I assume no such move has been made. SSSOOOOOOOO, this is either an April Fools by Bundwallah OR a marketing ploy by the company! Or I could be completely full of shite myself! Only time will truly tell.
Newt Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 That's a dirty trick, taking advantage of mans basic desires is cruel. APRIL FOOLS They are trying to sell Dominican brands of Cuban cigars. Ugh. I had my ccard out and everything. I wonder how many page hits they will get today...
Puros Y Vino Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 Yup. It's an April Fools joke. Follow the link to "sign up" and you will be treated to an array of dog rockets. I wonder if this little joke will backfire on FS?
ajgagnon Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 I hope it's a joke! The last thing I want is 300 million people gobbling up our precious cigars! Creative people can find them... I'm ok with the status quo.
laficion Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 Great marketing Idea to get rid of Dog rocket cigar stock. when you think that there are people out there that don't sleep at night, scared about this happening one day So, help these guys out, get your CUBAN NC's !!!!!!!
fbiguy Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 I have ordered stuff from them before, but I had a terrifying vision of them getting their hands on Cubans! I have to say I am almost as afraid as the rest of the world should the US lift the embargo. That being said, it's a pretty funny prank, and well executed.
CigarB Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 We should all call in huge orders and then right before giving credit card numbers yell April fools and slam the phone down!

Puros Y Vino Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 We should all call in huge orders and then right before giving credit card numbers yell April fools and slam the phone down! That would be priceless. Who's going to do it?

cigarros Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 Yooo-Hooo! Congratulations to all with April Fools Day! :clap:
Wicky Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 There's a small indie shop I pass frequently where everyday is All Fools Day! The marquee reads in big block letters... CUBAN CIGARS now get closer and look between these two words and you'll see in very small print... seed
rdb6 Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 April Fools Day happens to be my wedding anniversary. Thirty eight years.
cigcars Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 April Fools Day happens to be my wedding anniversary. Thirty eight years. HEY! Congrats on a long, lovely marriage - as it should be!
