I think I read somewhere that the Cx2 is now a catalog exclusive - maybe Famous-smoke.com ? You don't want to know my opinion of the Cx2.

and I really enjoyed the JJ Maduro and the Cuban Classic. I think I got a bad white label JJ b/c it seemed dried out and wasn't very enjoyable. They're just too stinkin expensive at the local B&M (like $12 for the JJ). They don't seem to be much cheaper online after s&h. I try to stay in the $4-$7 price range for my regular smokes. I do need to revisit the Padron lines...

Cbid (SM) is good for five packs, cigarauctioneer.com (FS) is good for 10-packs and 2-box lots.

Daily deal sites like Joecigar.com (SM) or Cigarmonster.com (FS) often have DPG's between $3 and $4 for 10, and both are free shipping.

(SM = Swedish Match, owner of Cigar.com, CigarsInternational.com, JRCigars.com, as well as General Cigar, etc. etc. FS = Famous-smoke.com)

Besides what I've mentioned, in the $4-$7 price range: Oliva V, Fuente Hemingway.

I heard Pete Johnson (Tatuaje, made by DPG) is coming out with a lower-priced cigar.
