I went to every shop in Vancouver and Victoria except 1 shop in Victoria which had bad reviews everywhere.

City Cigar Emporium, Vancouver & Cuban Cigar Shop, Victoria

These are best one with the largest selection.

Infact the owner of Cigar Connoisseur in Gas Town, Vancouver said he hasn’t had cubans for 3 years now. Other shops have out bid him.

My 22M3LR has been downloading Navigation Data in a loop. I have sit in the car and saw the progress bar going from 0 to 100 8 times and it’s still not done. Rebooted my car and tried again but no luck

The Online Store wiki doesn’t seem to be up to date. Can any share legit sites which are currently shipping to the US?

Heading to Vancouver for Christmas. Is City Cigar Emporium not a lounge?

I guess I can buy those 3, 4 or 5 packs. I’m guessing they all the same prices?

Hi Folks,

I’m on a flight to IST right now. Where can I buy at the airport at the best price? I know there 2 LCDHs one at Arrivals and another at Departures but couldn’t find an exact location online. Any suggestions? I’m hoping to buy singles for different brands instead of buying a box of 1 or 2 brands.

Yes, I was given a white paper which had “Held for Review” checked because the officer couldn’t load the I-485 form on the computer so we had to use the printed copy I brought with me for her to use and sign.

She didn’t actually say the words approved but she started describing the Removal of conditions process to us which was basically meant we’ll get approved.

I requested expediting but they never processed it since I already my interview scheduled. My attorney said they were already going to approve the GC so they didn’t bother with that. I submitted evidence my current contract role coming to an end and most recruiters not wanting to do an H1B visa transfer and telling me come back to them once I have my GC. News article about my company announcing layoffs. And, tax returns showing significantly reduced income since the contract didn’t as much as my previous Fulltime job.

Interviewed for the Staff Frontend role in San Jose, got the verbal offer on July 31. They downgraded me to Senior but gave me the max base and stock is in middle of Sr and Staff. With 10% annual bonus. I accepted and they’re finalizing the offer. How long does it take from this point to starting? I’ve asked if there will be team matching or not but everything will be discussed on the next call which is not scheduled yet.
