Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 141 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the fast delivery and the excellent quality of the products, which often arrive well-packaged and in superb condition. Many people appreciate the competitive pricing, finding that even with potential import duties, the overall cost remains advantageous compared to other options. The efficiency of the ordering process and the responsive customer communication are also frequently highlighted as positive aspects. However, some people mentioned issues with orders being placed on hold without clear explanations or not progressing as expected, leading to frustration. A few other people also felt that the quality of some cigars did not meet their expectations, even after proper storage. There were also instances where customers did not receive their orders, sometimes due to customs issues, or experienced double charges.

Cigars well packaged and fast delivery customs held package for a short while and nearly doubled price of purchase but still so much better than buying local

Great selection and best prices

Great selection, great prices and fantastic customer service. My order landed in less than a week and couldn't be happier with quality of products and service. All went well packaged with humidity control. 5* +++
Highly recommended

Beware

Beware. Online-cigars will ONLY ship Cubans to US without bands and boxes. Great way to not get what you pay for.

Generally very good, but recently disappointing.

I've bought quite a lot from Online Cigars and in general the service has been very good.

Recently I placed two orders which they were unable to fulfil, due to some sort of glitch that placed an additional 1500 or so stock lines on the site. Mistakes happen and this was no big deal - I was offered the option of store credit or a card refund and opted for the latter, but from this point onward matters deteriorated.

Refunds were finally received over two weeks after the orders were placed and required some coaxing via email. To add insult to injury the card transaction fees have not been refunded, which I find wholly unacceptable in a situation that was entirely of the company's own making.

I will certainly continue to buy from Online Cigars as their pricing is favourable, but payments will continue to be via methods offering a significant level of protection and certainly not by bank transfer which is the only means of avoiding the recently introduced card transaction fees.

This has the been first occasion on which I had a noteworthy issue and it is disappointing to experience such a poor approach to customer services.

I have ordered twice now from online…

I have ordered twice now from online cigars in 2025. My first order was Flor De Oliva box of 25 and really firm cigars so no draw from them. I then ordered AJ Fernandez Cameroon Gordo and same issues, really poor draw and little smoke output. I store my cigars in a humidor with a hygrometer at 20C and 65RH. I have Boveda packs in and they are in a dark room closet. I advised Onlin Cigars and they said store for two months in humidor till they are in good quality, which I have but still the same issue. Poor Quality cigars. I wonder if they are getting old stock from suppliers.

I received the box of cigars…

I received the box of cigars approximately two weeks after the order. Very efficient with delivery and condition of the cigars. So I placed a second order within a few days after receiving my first order.
Thank you.

Poor quality but excellent service!

I recently ordered a box of Rocky Patel Connecticut cigars, but unfortunately they didn’t meet the usual high standards I’ve come to expect.

I reached out to the team, and James responded quickly and professionally—he refunded both the cigars and the customs fees without any hassle. That kind of customer service really stands out.

I placed another order soon after, and just like all my previous purchases, the cigars arrived perfectly packaged and in excellent condition.

Sometimes things don’t go perfectly, but what matters is how a company handles it, and this team always goes above and beyond to make things right.

That’s why I keep coming back!

Thanks

Double charged and Order not received

Double charged my order onto my credit card. Company response was not their fault… nonsense!! Furthermore, my Order was for a gift to a friend.. when ordered I was concerned about delivery to US and asked about that. I was told by customer service that they never have a problem with customs, so do not worry. Long story short.. since my order had not arrived in the time company said it would be (which would have been in time for me to give the gift), I checked tracking and saw that customs had tried to reach the company, couldn’t and abandoned the order. So obviously the order was not being delivered to me! I asked for a refund. Company didn’t do it. I had to file a dispute with Mastercard. I Keep receiving email from company with excuses why this is unusual… now months after I placed the order. When placed this order, I needed it for a gift .. that time has passed. I purchased an alternative gift. This company should do the right thing .. not dispute my request made to Mastercard to delete this charge made to my account!!!

I have not received my cigars yet so there’s basically nothing to review once I receive my cigars. I will send you a better review.
