i was looking at bidding on some 5 Vegas A's. Those are good. Haven't had any gran habanos or punch. How are they?

Gran Habano is a really solid smoke. Very well priced too. I believe the only line I've ever had was the Corojo #5 (Red Label). I've also fallen in love with Punch here lately.
Sancho Panza has a size they call Quixote (4.50 x 50), good for a short smoke. $35.95 JR's Link. I just finished off a box of these myself, well .... with a lot of help from Sarah, she loves these.
Famous Buenos Maduritos These are a good short smoke. Kinda on the full side.

The 5 Vegas Series Series A Anomoly (petite corona). Also the Oliva G Maduro. The robustos are on the smallish size & the Special G is a petite corona figurado. Petite Tatuaje fits in that $2-4 range also. Not sure what you consider mid range, but these are some of favorite sticks that place out of the yard gar & into the after lunch catagory. About the only full corona's I smoke are RYJ Reserve Maduros & Nat Shermans and they are not too $$.

I've been really enjoying Perdomo Habano Corojo's. The Robusto box runs about 85 bucks.
The Rocky Patel Conquista robusto is a good mid-range smoke for a good price.

I like the champions also.
I really like the La aurora 1495 coronas and don't forget Padrons.
i picked up a couple of DPG blue and black lables of small size, i'm not sure the names. I also grabbed a some lfd's: Ligero 300 & Reserve Esp. Though, i have to say that lfd is at the hoigher end of mid-range: $5-7. Y'all named a few sticks that i have never tired and some i've never heard off. Looks like i'm off hunting for some of these. Thanks.

Like Chris, I too have had the Sancho Panza “Quixote” Great Stick and you can not beat the price.
As of late, my go to “Quickie” cigar is the R&J Reserve Maduro “Petites”. The size (4.62x34) is perfect for running around town or a quick walk with the dog. The price for what you get is GREAT also. I think I paid about $35 for a box of 30. These taste great and are a very nice full bodied cigar but are also easy on the draw. I also find my self smoking one of these after lunch on my way back to the office. Check em out, I bet you’ll like em too.
A close second on my Go to “Quickie” list is the Hoyo De Monterrey “Demitasse” (4.00x39) these guys are a little pricier but well worth it. I think I picked up a box of 50 for about $55.
Hope this helps.
