    strictlycuban.com is a decent site.

    however, i just ordered a box of partagas shorts from TOPCUBANS.com on the recommendation of a friend -- and their service and shipping speed is excellent. i'd say go with them. good prices, and a large selection of habanos. :D

    not me, but their guarantee and absolutely awesome prices make me want to. I may put in an order in a month or so, but if someone beats me to it, by all means, report back! :)

    their prices on some boxes, Vegas Robainas, especially -- seem to be over $100 less than any other place i've seen online.

    I've heard before to beware of cheap cubans.

    My problem is that I wouldn't know the difference.

    It's all about developing relationships and/or personal introductions from those who have.

    That applies to all nationalities, but Cubans are very prevalent in south Florida. I'm always avoiding cheap people.

    They sell the real deal but are one of the merchants in asia that use worldpay and another bank that was/is turning over credit card transactions to the US gov. to help them track purchases of Cuban goods.

    My purchase from Topcubans.com just arrived today. Just bought a dozen sticks that I know to test the quality and authenticity. I will report back what I find. For what it's worth, thus far the transaction has been painless, and very fast!

    Following up, the cigars arrived in great condition, and after a couple of days were ready to smoke the first trial. Thus far I have tried the Ramone Alones, and a Partagas Serie D. Both were distinctly authentic and had a beautiful flavor, I was a bit suprised, however to find that the Partagas was the worst burning cigar I have ever smoked. It ran in circles up the cigar, while wanting to go out during the last half of the cigar. Even though it was a pain to smoke, the taste was everything I remembered.

    I would wait longer to smoke them after receiving them. It may solve your burn problem. Some vendors keep them at high humidity so they will keep better in shipping. All of my cigars take between a week and two weeks to really adjust and settle down in the humi. Even the ones from the local shop. I also keep my humi at 65-68%.
