LCDH / Casa del Puro - Nuremberg

[smokenj]

I searched but i hadn't come up with anything so I'm coming here to ask you all this question. Has anybody dealt with Casa del Puro in Nuremberg? They claim to be a LCDH, but I want to make sure of their background before dealing with them. I searched for info on Google, and have come with people ranting and raving about their lounge, so I'm holding high hopes that somebody on here can back that up.

They claim to be a LCDH because they are a LCDH, listed on the lacasadelhabanos.com web site…

Mate, it's against the rules talk about sources. Search the thread.

PM if you need more info.

But to your knowledge, buying here in FOH (*****int.com) you are in very good hands.

I'm sorry for the post if it's against the rules, I wasn't able to see the franchises because their site runs off of a plugin that is not compatible with my ipad. I cannot fully access the website.

I am an avid believer of buying from anyone you like

EU LCDH in my experience are solid people/operations. As with anything, develop a rapport with them via e-mail if you can't do it in person (and let's face it, the majority of the time you can't do it in person). Have them check the stock you are seeking and make a call on its quality/suitability. You will quickly determine whether they are worth dealing with into the future.

Much appreciated, Prez. I am still new to the site and picking up on your do's and don'ts.

You can buy with them anything you want. 100% reliable. There are LCDH's with better prices.

Amsterdam is a good place as well.

Visit http://lacasadelhabano.com/web/index.php and you will find countless LCDH's (not all of them with web commerce).

Good place to find Regionales.

Been there physically myself. Nice place and helpful staff. Cigars were in top condition but no rare stuff or HTF German RE. Their lounge was top notch too

They almost had to shut down because of the anti-smoking laws in Bavaria. Now they cannot serve any drinks in their lounge

No way! That's a great shame. The lounge was very homy.

Lounge is still open

This is all great to hear. I ordered a box of QDO Panatelas for a great price. I was only asking as they had been discontinued in 2010. This is a very happy way to wake up for my weekend off! The only down side was the tax and shipping. Even with those two items I feel I paid a decent price for the items I had ordered.

Just FYI - cigar prices in Germany are fixed. Every store will sell them at the same price (it's illegal to give more than 3% discount).

It's funny that when it suits Governments of the First World they act in this way, yet when it doesn't they label this behaviour anti-competitive, price-fixing and collusionary!
