Opus X prices

[tampacigargirl]

I see where you're coming from but I just don't think it is right to limit a customer like that.

I have to disagree. I don't think it's fare to the 100's of customers that don't get to buy cigars that are only available once a year because some greedy customer for what ever reason buys the only 4 - 6 boxes I get to sell. I'd rather have a few pissed off customers because they aren't allowed to buy a box, so that my other customers may enjoy these cigars.

I'm not talking about buying 5 boxes, I'm talking about a box max. But we can agree to disagree. The prices aren't inflated, I think the #4 was $8 and the Reserva d Chateau was about $15 or so, give or take a few dollars.

I agree with this, but I also think as mentioned it depends on where you are. In places with a number of customers or say in New York, and larger cities they sell fast. really fast... in more backwater places it might not be a big deal if someone were to buy a box.

Tampa ain't no backwater! haha..

I live in tampa also...and I will just say I can usually get Opus X year round off the shelf. Heck today I went to a couple places and they had the anejo's on the shelf.

Location is it. Now if someone were to just buy the whole box..hell yea I would be pissed. I just got to pick up two new opus X sizes(for me) this week...off the shelf.

[tampacigargirl]

helly ea

What's that?

[SmokinDVM]

I doubt the local b&m here sells many of the opus.

A Fuente Fuente goes for over $20 each. Even with the extra CA taxes, that's a bullshit price.

hell yea...I type slower than I think and seldom proof read..I know..very bad.

LOL... that reminds me of the gunslinger who was always walking around with a bandaged foot. Quick on the finger but slow on the draw.

I have to agree with TampaCigarGirl. And besides, the libertarian in me wants to just say "It's her store, she has the right to do whatever she wants." If her policy doesn't serve your needs then you have the right to go someplace else. That's cool, it's just market forces in action.

Ditto the libertarian perspective. As for OpusX....here in the "backwaters" of Kansas.....I have never even seen an OpusX at a b/m.....any of the 5 in the city. Which means,obviously, I have never seen an OpusX period!

Count yourself lucky if you have the opportunity to buy even 2 or 3! I haven't matured enough as a cigar smoker to waste one on my under developed pallate, not to mention they are expensive, so it doesn't piss me off too bad. But when the time comes....I'll have no choice but to buy them online.
