Experience:
Always had good luck with them, great specials every week, decent auction site (hide your CC!) and speedy delivery. Never had a issue with Famous.
Experience:
Broad selection, good prices, prompt service.
Experience:
look for the daily specials – sometimes those are amazing deals: in addition they also give you free shipping on your entire order.
Experience:
Cigars from Famous are usually 1/2 to 1/3 the price of the same from local retailers. The cigars are never dry or messed up in any way. They also have good sales/closeouts. I get the Thompson catalog as well, but Famous blows them away on both selection and price.
I’ve ordered on Wednesday afternoon and gotten them by Friday via UPS regular. I only live a few hundred miles away, but the speed and consistency always make me smile.
Experience:
Had a bad experience with Famous Smokes. I won 10 Rocky Patel American Market Selection from their auction. When they arrived 3 were damaged. I called to get replacements & the womne made me feel like I was trying to rip her off for 3 cigars. The 3 cigars were dried out & damaged. After a week they finally replaced them. Cigars International is GREAT never a problem.
Experience:
Website is very well made. The normal prices are nothing to write home about but they do have a good daily deal.
Experience:
This was the first place I ever bought cigars at and have to say they’ve been very good to me. When they missed something on an order, they shipped it rush — at their cost — to me (it was a free sampler so I was rather surprised it went out with that kind of speed).
Experience:
i live in the UK and Famous accept my UK credit card which is excellent as most online american cigar firms are not that helpful, even if you can use international cards in person in their shops.
Famous offer excellent cigars and ship to my colleague in the States.
They are a first rate and cheap supplier with a personal touch.

I never had a problem at Famous. They have great selections and very competitive pricing. Everyone is knowledgeable and friendly. It’s the only cigar web site I now use.
Experience:
After falling in love with cigars a few years ago and finding my nitch,my cigars, I decided to look for my brands on line for a better price and after about 3 other cigar shops on line, I found Famous, and it has been an ongoing love for their service, price and treatment that keeps me coming back. The prices are terrific, delivery is excelent and the free cigars with certian purchases are a nice extra in the orders. Their selection of everything, lighters, humidors and accessories are top notch and affordable. All i can say negative is, i’m dissapointed they arn’t closer, i’d love to visit them on a regular basis.Definatly top notch in my book! Thank you Famous smoke shop. Joe Z. AKA Big Daddy Zues
Experience:
Great prices, quick service, wonderful website, etc. What else could you want out of a vendor?
Experience:
I keep Famous Smokes as one of my “go to” shops. Order is ALWAYS right, and I’ve bought quite a bit of merchandise.
I think I had an issue one time, and they quickly took care of it. Overall, a great store.
Experience:
F-S has been an honest, up-front, replete-with-bargains place to buy cigars either on-line or via phone since I began buying from them about 7-8 years ago. I like to participate in the ratings of indivdual cigar brands, find their cigar flavor/body profiles and reviews to be accurate and unbiased and look forward to receiving their catalog each month. It’s a really, really good place to buy cigars and I plan to continue after the Depression is over or I drop dead, whichever comes first!
Experience:
Have never had a problem. Fast shipping and cigars always in good shape. Sometimes they even throw in a free cigar–nice touch.
Experience:
After CI screwed me (really themselves) I started shopping with FSS and never looked back. From sales to service to cigarmonster.com they have everything I need. Im on the website several times a day, viewing the vast knowledge based articles. When I need more info I call or email with great response. Thank’s to everyone working @ FSS !!
Experience:
Famous is simply the best !!!
Experience:
Fast shipping, good prices. Interface could use some work.
Experience:
I’ve always been satisfied ordering from Famous. The auction site is a regular stop of mine.
Experience:
Overall FS is a great site .Great specials …Good customer service …. The one problem I had they fixed immediately …
Experience:
Imaginative deals and competitive pricing make Famous a sure stop in my shopping “trips” in the ‘Net. I have yet to have anything but prompt service and quality products from them.
Experience:
i’m lucky enough to live close by the shop. they have great events. the staff is friendly, knowledgeable and overall, just plain awesome. they know how to take care of their patrons. And on top of that, their Monster deals kick ass.
Experience:
Purchased a box of CAO Italia. Paid more than a good number of other sellers. The cigars were too dry and hard as pencils. I’ll buy elsewhere in the future.
Experience:
Good people behind a well-run shop. Good prices, and they will stand behind the order if anything is wrong when it arrives. My boxes have show up pretty quick.
One box had a couple broken glass tubes (shipper’s fault really) they offered to give me a credit or take it back (on their dime), whatever I preferred. I took the credit and bought more smokes. Always good.
Experience:
I haven’t been able to connect to your website the last two days. Anything wrong? I have order online several times.
