Cigar pictures
I was looking and it looks like 42 takes a picture of one, then copies it on the computer to make it a fiver or a single for the Sunday sampler. Good idea, he must have a lot of cigar pron on his computer, LoL. I was just noticing this as every cigar in the offering today looked to be wrapped EXACTLY the same so similar it would be impossible (but a makers dream) to create every cigar the EXACT same way.

Yep.
Yeah, we usually crop out a picture of 1 cigar, then manipulate it to style it into a 5-pack. This makes it easier to build the Sunday Sampler pictures as well. Although, we’re toying around with the idea of setting up a more professional photo rigging.
What does everyone think of our product pictures? Do they ever persuade or detract you from buying?

I think having the pictures is important just so you can get an idea of the vitola. You give the measurements so size comparison would not be needed. I would never say take them down nor would I say you need better photos but there have been like 3-4 bad ones you know about anyway. So to answer your question in my opinion they are great and seeing what I am here to buy makes me more likely to get it. I think what you got is great. Maybe someone else will chime in on what they think. I think better pictures would be nice as before I have had a question on a particular odd vitola so If you are planning on making some better pictures it would be nice esp for those few I mentioned. Maybe someone else will chime in on what they think.

Most of the time the pics are great. Just make sure there is enough lighting on the cigars so it shows up right and doesn’t look all dark and assed out.
