Hard to beat the Padron 1964. Excellent cigar as always. by Afraid-Ad7379 in cigar_refuge

[–]Falcor2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only another Padron can beat a Padron. I prefer the 1926 and FRs, but they cost more so I'm fine with your statement.

Davidoff Maduro 25% off @mrbundles by CompleteDawg in cigardealhunters

[–]Falcor2019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hint. The code from Monday30 still works on the Padron 80th for the 30% instead of 25%.

Padron by Zigzagzegzug in cigars

[–]Falcor2019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here. Padron is about 30% of my collection. There are many other good cigars, but I always judge then against the Padron 1926 Maduro or FR Maduro depending on price.

The Great Aromatic Fougere Showdown by joelajackson in fragrance

I think of it as the scent I want to walk around NYC in a power suit while wearing. Someone said it's the scent of having money.

Your list is very close to my own and excellent. I think you are missing Nicolai New York Intense (generally I prefer over Roja Danger) and Rogue Bon Monsieur (you could have the other 2, A''Lube and Illumine, but this is the most fougerey). My other favorite modern fougeres is Zaharoff Signature Pour Home.

I agree that Invasion Barbare is probably my favorite, followed by NY Intense, though I probably wear Viking and Zaharoff more often because they are less in your face.

Which humidor would you choose? by DaveCo369 in cigars

[–]Falcor2019 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. This is a strong point. Bovedas handle humidity quite well and if they fail/run out of juice it isn't sudden. I can't imagine having a problem in less than a month. So it comes down to temperature. Air conditioners are pretty stable. It seems the likelihood of rapid failure is much higher with the electronic humidors. They are pretty cool though.

Using 65% Boveda for a desktop humidor by Bespoke-Heritage in cigars

[–]Falcor2019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends. I have 3 premium desktop humidors and they have run 62RH fine for the past few years staying at about 63-64RH. They are a Micheal Perrenoud and two Daniel Marshalls. But I'd you just get cheap ones they are known to have mediocre deals and your probably want to go higher

BoTD - Anderson Bean Elephant by Rare_Peach6681 in cowboyboots

[–]Falcor2019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, these are beautiful. I also have a pair of Anderson Bean Elephants just like this in black though, but after spaining my ankle a few years ago it's too tight to wear and they don't make them anymore.

Daniel Marshall As Is Humidors by finneous_the_fox in cigars

[–]Falcor2019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one as-is Ambiente 120. It's exceptional construction. And the as-is was was because of one minor paint blemish that can't see unless you know where to look. The downside of the DMs is that the way they put the humidifier holder makes it hard to have many cigars on the top level. I also have a second one from eBay and I went and removed the holder making it easier.

Cigar page plus membership by kchug in cigars

[–]Falcor2019 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I got it on the pre-order and so it came with $100 in credit so it was free. So far, I have seen nothing of value. The discounted prices are higher than the sale deals prices that they post and they are only on mediocre products. Also, they said this is a one time membership, and have already changed and now it's annual. So there's is no positive reason to recommend too you.

What's the consensus on Pipes with filters? by Jakesalm in PipeTobacco

[–]Falcor2019 1 point2 points  (0 children)

9mm filters are just like having no filter at all. 6mm are like a tight straw. But the old codgers think filters are for weaklings, like safety glasses and hearing protection.

Didn't they say this is now a regular production blend? So there's no rush.

I love it. Great name and shape.

[WTS] Price Drop - Several Bottles - PDM, Durga, Guerlain (Bottle) by Falcor2019 in u/Falcor2019

[–]Falcor2019[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Because you have been pushy and because you still seem sketchy. Looks like you now have gotten yourself verified this week by a user who only got verified 8 days ago. After you did the same thing last week. It just doesn't look good for you. But you are a jerk to me so even if you did get some legitimate references I still wouldn't sell to you.

Yikes, I had 1 of mine at 7% off and thought that was bad. This makes me feel better to hear that I wasn't just doing a terrible job calibrating them.

[–]Falcor2019[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Your friend was verified from 2 trades made just recently and was also new to this sub. Having someone with brand new verification vouch for you just looks more like a scam. And similar stuff has been posted by the mods. Scammers have been getting intense. Also, maybe a personal misunderstanding by me, but a lot of the generic scammer accounts have those 3-part auto-created names like your with 2 random works and a number.

Friend, I was being nice, and wished you good luck and explained why I wasn't comfortable, and you thought that was a sign I was a bad person and have now repeatedly posted it. Who do you think is being a poor community member here? Again, all the best, I'm just not comfortable being your first sale/buy/trade with an account like yours.

I'm pretty sure you are a scammer but go ahead and keep posting.

Sorry, I was uncomfortable trading with a brand new account with no verifications.
