Cigar Thief experience

Lockspur · 07-16-2025, 11:19 AM

A buddy of mine was on the hunt for pork tenderloins and found them at Cigar Thief. He texted me the link asking if the site was legit or not... It apparently looked sus to him.

A cursory search here and on Reddit brought nothing alarming. So I told him to go for it.

Searching on there I found Sunday Gravy in stock. So I said, why not.

Order was communicated thoroughly at each step. Shipping was USPS from PA and arrived in Houston in 3 days from ordering. All in all, very impressed.

He also ordered some Diesel Crucibles (which were in stock in his cart) but apparently before processing the sale, the box was sold and didn't notify him.

They immediately sent him an email apologizing for the error and offered him a refund or a store credit plus 15% off his next order.

His other smokes arrived just as quickly as mine.

I'd say they're a keeper.

With all this talk about Pork Tenderloins and Sunday Gravy, it brought back memories of going to my Grandmom's house in So. Philly for dinner on the weekends.

Thanks, Scotty. Also thanks for tip on the site.

Thanks for the information and being our guinea pig! Glad it worked out.

Could you tell from the box or receipt which B&M this is?

welcome y'all!

I pitched the box when they arrived, but it won't be the last order. They're out of PA...that much I remember from the label.

Interesting . . . seems like there are several online cigar sites based in PA. I know that Famous, CI, & Cigar.com are all based in PA. Wonder of that is a coincidence or if PA offers some sort of benefit to them . . .

PA doesn't charge tax on cigars but does on other tobacco products, neither does FL. NC has a relatively low tax on cigars, 30 cents per cigar

My friend ordered more and actually called. It's a small 3-person shop. They are just now moving to a linked inventory system that will update their site.

The guy (Greg) told my buddy to just call if he needs anything. Super friendly.
