General Questions

How does the gift certificate program work?
All gift certificates have to be physically in our possession (you have to mail them back to us) before we can apply any credit to a future order. Once we have received a gift certificate a credit will be placed on your account. This credit will automatically be used when you place an order via phone, fax or web. Certificates are non-transferable, quantities may be limited and other restrictions may apply. They are good for six months from the date of issue; meaning they must be mailed back to us within six months. There is no limit on the number of certificates you can apply towards your order. However, the total credit on each order must be equal to or less than the amount of the order.

I sent you an email on Saturday/Sunday but haven't gotten a reply yet.
Our business hours are Monday thru Friday 8:00am-6:00pm. Any emails sent on the weekend will be received on Monday.

I already order by phone. How do I start ordering by web?
Simply send us an email with your full name and address. That's so we can find your account. Include a note that you want to start ordering on the web. We'll set up your account and email your initial username and password. We highly recommend changing the initial username and password.

Account info

How do I create a new account?
You do this during checkout after already finding the items you want to buy. You'll start from the shopping cart and click on check out. There you will have a chance to register a new account.

Why can't I change my address?
You do not have the ability to change your address on our web site. To make address changes you can email us your full name, old address and new address. We'll also need your telephone number if it has changed too. We'll make the change and respond when it's done.

Why don't the city and state fields work when adding an address?
While creating a new address you must enter your zip code first and press tab or enter. The site will then search for all available cities and state. It takes a few seconds. You can then choose the correct one from the drop down list. It has been tested and works in Internet Explorer 5.5 and higher, Netscape Navigator 7 and Firefox. Other browsers may work with varying results. If it just won't work then you can call or email us to create the new address for you. Then you'll be able to use it in the future.

I changed my credit card but don't see it on my account.
The change does not appear immediately. It will take up to 30 minutes before you see the change. Please wait a little while then login again to check.

I can't login to my account. What do I do? If you have forgotten your username and/or password, you can obtain them easily. Click on this link to go to a page to retrieve the information. Enter the email address you have registered on your account in the box. Your username and password will be sent to that email address.

I tried to get my username and password and was told I don't exist in your database. That usually means we don't have an email address on your account. Send us an email with your full name and address and we will put your email address back on your account.

Ordering

How can I apply my gift certificates to my web order? Once you mail in the gift certificate we take care of the rest. You will not see anything on our web site and cannot apply the gift certificate yourself. We will apply the credit after you place the order.
Back to Top

What does the stock notify button do? When an item is out of stock clicking this button allows you to enter your name and email address. Then when the item comes in stock you will receive an email notifying you. It is not a backorder. The email you receive means that we have it in stock. It is up to you to order it if you wish.
Back to Top

When will my order be shipped? Orders placed by 1:00 PM EST will be shipped the same day. All overnight orders placed by 4:00 PM EST will be shipped the same day.

I just placed an order and it's not showing in my order history. Order history shows orders that we have shipped to you already. Orders just placed do not show because we are still processing them. Once we ship your order it will show in order history.
Back to Top

Has my order been shipped yet? The quickest way to check this is to look at your order history. If the order is there then you can track it with UPS. If you don't see the order listed then we haven't shipped it yet. At this point you can call or email us to check on it.
Back to Top

How can I track my order? You can track the shipping status of your package online. Go to the My Account section and login. Then click on "Order History" followed by "detail" of the particular order. To track the package click on the "Shipping Status" above the name and address.
Back to Top

I placed an order but have not received a UPS tracking email. The UPS tracking email is sent automatically by UPS. It contains tracking and expected delivery date information. It is sent the night we ship your order after UPS receives the package into their system around 7:00 PM.

Weekly email special

What is the weekly email special and how do I sign up? Every week we send an email with special deals to customers who have signed up. These deals are not available by any other means. To sign up for these exclusive deals send us an email with your full name and address telling us you want to receive the weekly email specials. And we don't share our customer information with anyone so you won't start receiving spam because of us.
Back to Top

I signed up for the weekly email specials but haven't been receiving them. This could be caused by a number of reasons. The most common is that we no longer have your email address on file. Various spam filters set by either you or your email provider also block the weekly email. Be sure you are allowing email from our news@mikescigars.com email address. If none of this applies then send us an email with your full name and address and a note about not receiving the weekly email special. We will check your account and let you know the result.
