Jnaube Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Hi folks, I have a mule leaving in a week for London. the guy will land at Heathrow's airport and will be checking for cigars for me at the airport. Anyone knows if he might be able to find me some cool stuff like Britanicas? Any infos on price would also be appreciated! Thanks!
monkey66 Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Never see anything good in Heathrow these days. Been through t3 and t5 recently and it is new boring stock and not cheap (think uk retail munus 20%). They sometimes have a 40% sale (another 20%) and this brings then close to 'normal' duty free levels. Normally on a few selected r and j or monte boxes. I dont think I have been moved to buy anything in Heathrow for at least 3 years.
Jnaube Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 The guy will be at T3. I guess I have absolutely no clue if he can find me something.
Hugomarink Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 I was at Terminal 1 back in early January and did not see anything special, especially after what I was able to get at some of the stores in London.
kidmac Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 You need to go in to the Harrods to find any good stuff and there is good stuff but you will pay!!
Jnaube Posted March 12, 2013 Author Posted March 12, 2013 He won't go there. It's airport or nothing. I guess I'll just give more money to my cuban mule in two weeks.
kidmac Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 He won't go there. It's airport or nothing. I guess I'll just give more money to my cuban mule in two weeks. No there is a Harrods at the airport..Very nice to be honest with a nice cigar selection.
Drguano Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Too bad he won't leave the airport. He could take the X26 express bus to Teddington and visit Ajay at the LCDH. There you can find anything you can afford and then some. I'll be there in a few weeks. Eight hour flight from Minneapolis, 45 minutes on the bus and I'll be firing up something humongous to cure jet lag.
CaptainQuintero Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 He won't go there. It's airport or nothing. I guess I'll just give more money to my cuban mule in two weeks. I'd give the extra money to your Cuban mule, there isn't anything special at the airports here. Lots of goodies in Cuba though!
Tino Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 The guy will be at T3. I guess I have absolutely no clue if he can find me something. When I went through Terminal 3 in November they were reading 43% humidity in the cabinets and had nothing of interest.
mazolaman Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 There aren't too many places in England that I'd buy from, mainly due to cost....
dangolf18 Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 I doubt the prices are really "duty-free". If they are really duty-free, then the Britanicas and RA PB's should be around 80 pounds a box. If so, pick up a couple boxes.
