Not the company it use to be Not the company it use to be. I ordered a S.T. Dupont lighter and CI sent me a defective lighter. After calling to get it replaced, I was told they don't send return shipping labels for lighters and I would have to pay to have the defective lighter shipped back. I don't plan on buying from CI, their sister company Cigarbid.com, or any other company associated with them.

Hey CI customers BEWARE!!! Hey CI customers! Just a heads up to beware of CI signing you up for memberships without your knowledge. I was signed up for their PURO PERKS membership and charged $14.95/month for the last 2 months. I was able to cancel the membership & the Jan 2nd fee but not Dec 1st fee!!!! The customer service rep also REFUSED to forward me to a supervisor! BEWARE OF POOR BUSINESS PRACTICES!!! Here's my CF# CI029840252

Putrid customer service I ordered a package of Ghurkas that included two rock glasses. When it arrived the glasses were broken. I sent a message to what CI laughingly calls customer service but it was ignored, as were two subsequent messages. Today as y I sent a message telling CI not to send me any more catalogs or emails, adding that it could go straight to hell. This ends a decades-long business relationship solely because of CI's abysmal lack of customer service or, for that matter, common courtesy.

Poor cigars Poor cigars - I have bought dozens of cigars from them and each time I seem to get 'factory seconds' - just absolute crap that burn poorly - it as if one is buying those cheap cuban knock offs in Mexico - then there is the shipping - I order second day shipping so my order is fresh - 5 days to the door - WTFR - I am finished with this company

Never say never Never say never - but I will never order from CI again barring drastic changes. I’ve ordered from CI several times past, no issues. And then just this week get a letter from a collection agency for a supposedly $60+ unpaid bill, 2 years ago!? Really? No notice until just now? If this is how you treat customers I will NEVER buy from CI again. Good luck with your shrinking customer base.
