My local shop went south

[nhcigarfan]

I went to one of my local shops, Gold Leaf of Seabrook NH, to pick up a couple anejo #55 and they jacked the price up to $16.45 from $8.60. I've bought a lot from them in the past but seeing there 5 shops all with 20 mins of me they may have lost my business.

I'm all for capitalism but not gettinggougedism.

yeah, she said that they are rare, hard to find cigars and people will pay the price for them.

As much as I'm going to be flamed for this, I can see their side. Most of these places dont make much to beguin with, and if you can get something that you can make a nice profit off of, even if it is above msrp, you have to do what you have to do to keep the business open.
