Best Places to Shop on the Internet.

BIG_DADDY · 04-20-2005, 09:32 AM

I know there are great places you guys know about out there that I don't. Here are a couple of mine besides the obvious EBAY option.

www.craigslist.org
www.bighumidor.com

Craigslist is great. However, you have to be on the ball if you're looking for a particular item 'cause as soon as it's posted- a hundred peeps are emailing the seller for it.

Which makes Craigslist a even better place to sell. You can get rid of something and make a few bucks within an hour.

I like Amazon.com when I'm considering buying books and music. I like the reviews peeps leave and helps me decide if I really want to spend the money on the item.

Another link: http://roboshopper.com/ and http://www.bizrate.com/ are both pretty good links.

shoebuy.com is halfway decent if you search the 'net for their coupon codes.

I bought my dad a nice set of leather gloves for xmas from http://www.overstock.com/ Great price on them. They have lots of other stuff to choose from.

Buy.com is great. No tax, no shipping.

I worked for them for two years. Wrote the product descriptions. I got an extra 30% off with my employee discount. The amount of money I spent there while employed was pretty astounding.

I like this cigar site better. Not just boxes, but smaller quantities, too. More affordable, allows you to sample stuff without committing to a big buy:

I also had a great experience with www.overstock.com

I had one of those Friday night........

We were sippin' Jack Daniels on my back porch with some friends of ours, and a buddy and his wife showed up bearing gifts. I felt obliged to lighten his cigar load for him

Fine, fine smokin' cigar

Cheaperthandirt.com has some pretty decent outdoors/hunting/police/military surplus type stuff.

I've smoked several Fuentes and never had a bad one (I like the Hemingways, but some are hard to find). I've never had a Don Carlos No. 2, though. I'll have to look for one soon (but I ain't paying $229 for a whole box!). Thanks for the tip!
