No jumping unless they can do better than $7 a stick. #Holtsspoiled

Fuggin' newb!
Only difference I can see is lack of the box. Apparently, that costs $25.

Yeah, Thompson needs a new pic as well.
One purchase from Thompson about 10 years ago and I learned all I need to know about them - don't do business with them!

They had a crazy Laranja deal a few months back that Ogie was thinking of trying but he never reported back in with any results.

I think that was their take/version of the Laranja... I'd have to look back. I typically don't do business with them. I don't think there are many here that do on the regular. /but nice deal
Just curious, unless you are a box press whore (and the Box Pressed Caixo's are the best Laranja's IMHO) why would you buy the Thompson Deal @ $45 from a questionable vendor instead of the JR Deal Toro deal at 10/$41 from a solid vendor?

Is the JR deal still active? If not, that'd be one reason I guess.
Yes it is and to come out you have to buy at least 10 and use the code OY gave us (the offer is still active but not sure about the code)
Code still works so $40.91 for 10 delivered.

It was the exact cigar... at a better price too (then).

Incidentally, there may be a better(ish?) deal.  Thompson (I know, I know) has a box pressed robusto called the "Baixo".  I took one for the team to see if they're legit.  Edit: They run sub $5 or better.
Seeing 10/$35 shipped right now.
So are they legit?
They appear to be. Can't burn until tomorrow and that will be in 20mph wind. Cold draw is a rich dried fruit and earth.

That definitely wins, since the Thompson would be about $50 delivered. Unless you REALLY need the box press.

I think the only purchase I ever made through them was for my first bigger humidor. Sent me the completely wrong one. They fixed it without much problem, so no complaint. But something about them always seems just a touch shady. Not sure what it is.
They were famous for trying to sham you into their club, calling you all the time with telemarketing scams  and even charging an unauthorized membership to your CC.  They have quite  a reputation with the BBB.
Now that you mention it, I do remember them calling all the time about that. Guess that's what I was thinking of.
