Just called them for prices. They mark up the there products big time. Stay away. I guess there is a reason why they have so much stock. No-ones buying there! read more

both ladies ignored me. I find the SOME cigars very pricey. I saw they had frontwoods? or backwoods? cigars, someone wanted me to get them.They sell 5 for 15.00!! CRAZY!! I heard they sell them for 8.00 in Scugog smoke shop, for 8.00 not TAX! Maybe they get theirs there as well. then double the price. they do have a great selection of cigars though. but not worth buying 1 cigarette type,cigar for 3.00 read more

This spot is clean and well organized. They have a knowledgable and helpful staff, and they have their own house blend cigars in the $5 - $8 range. The major brands are priced somewhat competitive to other shops. The store looks like a house with about 3 - 4 parking spaces in the front. They are located next door to Tim Hortons... No complaints here so far... read more

I drive to Oshawa every week and normally pick up my cigars from Havana Castle in Port Credit but decided to drop by Victory Cigars on King Street in Oshawa. I purchased some of the house blends which were ok and then returned for some small Montecristo's the next week for my friend. As any adult cigar aficionado can attest, there is nothing worse than paying good money for a dry cigar. The cigar's were as dry as the Sahara even though the young lady re-assured me that they were kept in a humidor but talk about attitude when I went back to return the cigars. The owner at Havana Castle has even heard stories about this Oshawa cigar store which I think is a quite the shit show. Never again... read more

I have not received my order.. I was suppose to receive my order 6 days ago but still have yet to receive it. Tracking is not updating either. I tried contacting customer service at Victory Cigars and all i got was "we are not responsible of the item once the item is shipped".. That is VERY surprising to me that customer SERVICE would say that. I will change my review once i receive a refund, or reply from customer service with a solution to the issue. read more

See all

I have been to Victory Cigars twice. The first time I dealt with the owner and he was quite helpful with explaining everything as I was looking to purchase my first humidor after a return trip from Cuba. The only bad part of that initial purchase experience was that he upsold me on a Boveda calibration pack for my Brigham hygrometer (I have since been to Brigham and was told that their hygrometers are factory calibrated so this was an unnecessary purchase). When I purchased the humidor, the owner told me to e-mail them if I had an questions. Sure enough I did have some issues within a month after. When I was smoking some cigars, the odd time the wrapper would break (once it exploded/popped because of the pressure). I e-mailed them asking what could be causing the problem. Their initial suggestion was fair in checking the humidity level in my humidor and the calibration of the hygrometer. When I replied that this was not the issue, I got no additional reply. I have since looked online and after quite a bit of research, have figured out the problem. It is kind of sad that a cigar specialist could not answer this. In all fairness, it took me a while to find the answer as most comments were about improper storage but I would expect a cigar shop to be able to answer this question. The second time I stopped in to take a look at some bigger humidors as a friend was bringing me back some cigars from Cuba and I needed more storage space. I was also going to be purchasing a humidor for him. A younger woman was working with what looked like dyed blonde/grey hair. She was busy so I did what any cigar lover does when waiting, check out the in-store humidor. It did not take long for her to come in. Although I really felt like I was being watched, which is a sad state of affairs that they feel the need to do this since it really ruins the experience. I did ask her some questions and she was helpful in answering them. I detected a tone of condescension however as some people are not aware of their tone, I just chalked it up to this. When we finished in the humidor, I went out to ask her questions about their desktop humidors. While she was helpful at the start, this deteriorated and I do not believe her tone is accidental. I asked her about several humidors and her tone appeared to become increasingly inappropriate.My final question was about the Brigham Millennium humidor and what it came with. Her response was that it came with a sponge and hygrometer. Knowing that there are many brands of these, I asked what kind. Her extremely sarcastic tone in the response of "well it is a Brigham humidor" was when I had heard enough and I commented, "I'm done here". Her reply, again sarcastically, was that the store had closed 10 minutes earlier but she was staying open for me. I did not bother replying that I was not aware of this and perhaps she should have told me. I just wanted to get out of there. It should be noted that I believe I went in there at about 7:50pm (though my clock in my vehicle had not been adjusted for daylight savings so I thought it was 6:50pm). I have since been to the Brigham store on Queen Street East in the Beaches area of Toronto. While parking is a pain, it is worth the drive as not only will you get a better overall price for a humidor (it comes with many extras), the staff are friendly and will treat you with respect. I went in on two separate days and got excellent service from three different employees. They even do the initial seasoning for you to get your humidor ready for your cigars! And while they will not let you into their humidor alone, they will not make you feel like you are being monitored while you are in there. read more

Great shop!! A classic look, top notch selection, and knowledgable friendly staff.

I wish I could delete this bad review! Victory Cigars ended up making everything right and all is well!

Great store.wish some items were better priced.since its the only one in Oshawa, prices are a bit high. But friendly staff.

Very friendly; always ready to offer a suggestion or advice on everything from cigar selection to which butane is the primo choice.

These guys are outstanding and will take care of you if by chance you have a bad cigar. Not sure what Dave T is talking about but it seems he has an axe to grind or connections to Havana Castle. On top of top notch service and selection, Kevin and Julian offer great events throughout the year. read more

My initial review was a bad one due to perhaps some error/issues with their e-mail system, however Julian (the owner) gave me a call within about an hour of my post and apologized for the mix-up, sent me the tracking number via text, offered me a small coupon and was a gentleman the whole time. I told him I'll drop by sometime and said we'll have a cigar/converse. Keep you posted! read more

I have lived in Oshawa all my life and this shop has the most accommodating, knowledgeable, and friendly service the city has to offer. Glad to be a customer will be a returning customer. read more

Had a really horrible first experience at this shop and probably won't return. As a new pipe owner I was excited to go browse and hopefully learn a little from the staff in terms of what type of tobacco they suggest I start with. Instead I literally got kicked out of their store.... My wife and I entered the store where we were greeted by the girl at the counter. She asked us if we had ever been in the store before and I told her it was our first time. She then asked us for our identification..... I am 32 with a rather large beard and it is very evident I am not under 18. My wife is in her mid twenties and although she may not look over 25 it is pretty obvious she is not a minor. I did have my identification but my wife did not. At this point we were told we could not be in the store without showing both of our identification. I was a little shocked. I am clearly well of age and that would make my wife of age as well. Needless to say we left the store with a pretty bitter taste in our mouths and both still somewhat in shock of what had just happened. I hope for the reputation of the business they learn to train their staff to use common sense and reasonable judgement when assessing the age of their clientèle. It is very likely that I would have been a long term customer had my first experience been a good one, but unless I get some kind of apology from store owners on how my wife and I were treated I will be looking elsewhere for tobacco products in the future. read more
