Time Zone Differences
Our warehouse is physically located in Easton, Pennsylvania. Our sales and hours of operation are based on Eastern Time zones. If you are ordering from any other time zones and would like to take advantage of date sensitive specials, prices or offers, you must complete your transaction prior to midnight, Eastern Time in order to get the desired price or offer. An order is officially "complete" after you have received a email confirmation of the order. Shipping cutoff times are also time sensitive to Eastern Time zones.
Shopping Cart
This is where all the items you chose for purchase are held, until you Check Out. There is no obligation! You may add or subtract items, as you wish. If you leave items in your cart, and do not place an order, they will be automatically removed after 1 week. Clicking on the "View Cart" button, from any page, will show you what is currently in your cart.
You may remove unwanted items, from your shopping cart, in one of two ways:
- You may click on the "Delete" button, to the right of the item you would like to remove.
- You may enter a "0" (zero) in the "Quantity" box for the item(s) you wish to remove and click on the "Update Your Cart" button.
Using The Quantity Box
The "QTY" (quantity) box is where you enter the number of items you want to purchase. If you would like to order 2 of an item, then enter "2," and so on. If the item is listed as "Backorderable," then instead of the "Add to Cart" button you will see a "Backorder" button, meaning this item is OK to backorder. If the box is marked with an "NA," it means the item is not available for sale at the time of your search. By default, items marked with "NA" will not be available for backorder.
Payment Methods
Gift Certificates
It's the thoughtful gift that you don't have to think about! Available in denominations of $10, $25, $50, $75, and $100, Famous Smoke Shop gift certificates are the most convenient way to thank or congratulate a cigar smoker you know or love. Plus, Famous Smoke Shop gift certificates can be easily redeemed online, by phone, mail, or by visiting our fully-stocked retail store.
Upon purchase, a personalized gift certificate will be mailed to the shipping address you provide, and should arrive within 3 to 7 business days. Additionally, you may request that we send an e-mail to your recipient by providing his/her e-mail address in the "Email To" field. This personalized email will be sent within one business day, and will include the gift certificate number and claim code (for redemption), your name ("FROM"), your recipient's name ("TO"), the amount of the gift certificate purchased, and your gift message.
PLEASE NOTE: ALL printed gift certificates will be mailed to the shipping address provided in the order. If you wish to purchase multiple gift certificates, for different people, please use YOUR shipping address.
Key Codes
Key codes are used to make sure your order contains exactly what we have advertised in the publication you are responding to (i.e.: E-mail announcement, catalog, flyer, etc.) If you are ordering from a catalog, you will find the respective key code on the back cover. Sales emails will also contain specific instructions on which key codes to use to get the prices and/or offers advertised. In other words, if we've somehow piqued your interest in buying from us because of some sale that sounds too good to be true, there will undoubtedly be a key code associated with that sale.
When ordering on our site, the payment screen may ask you to enter the key code.* To ensure that your transaction is completed properly, please be sure to enter the correct code.
*If you've accessed our site by way of a link from our weekly sales message or banner from another web site, a key code will not be requested.
Taxes
For all orders shipped within the State of Pennsylvania, Famous-Smoke.com is required BY LAW to collect PA State Sales Tax of 6% on the TOTAL value of the order, which includes both the item(s) total and the shipping charges. Some regions of the state require a 7% sales tax. Depending on the zip code you enter on your order form, the rate will be adjusted accordingly. We do not charge tax when shipping outside the State of Pennsylvania.
The Best Guarantee In The Cigar Business (Maybe The World)
"I do not consider a sale complete until the customer is satisfied."
- Arthur Zaretsky
Famous Smoke Shop has been faithfully serving customers since 1939. I care about your satisfaction. I stand behind every product we sell. I take pride in selecting and testing many of the cigars that we sell. I only deal with quality cigar manufacturers. Cigars are my only business. You can buy from me with confidence. You may make a return for any reason. Your return will be handled with courtesy and professionalism and the refund or replacement will be processed quickly. This is my guarantee to you, our customer. We guarantee our cigars and other products up to 30 days from the shipping date. After that time period, returns will NOT be accepted.
Billing Address
When you
register with Famous Smoke Shop, we require a billing address. The billing address is defined as the address at which you receive the billing statement for your credit card of choice. The billing address should not be confused with the ship-to address, which may be the same as your billing address. If you decide to change your credit card information, always make sure that the billing address for the new card corresponds to the address where you receive statements for that card. You can also change or edit your billing address by clicking on the "
Shipping Address" link in the left-hand margin.
Shipping Address
To view or edit your shipping address, simply click on the "Shipping Address" link in the account menu. If your ship-to address is the same as your billing address, it will be indicated as such. You can easily add a new address by clicking the "Enter New Address" button. IMPORTANT NOTE: When you register with Famous, the program AUTOMATICALLY creates a "default" shipping address with the same name & address as the "bill-to" address you created. Whenever you change your billing address on our web site, the shipping address with the same values as the billing address will AUTOMATICALLY change, as well.
