    Hey they got one up on auction at C-bid:

    http://www.cigarbid.com/auction/lot.cfm?lotID=365304

    The cigar is 7 1/2 inches long and MSRP is $750, which works out to MSRP of $100 an inch.

    I propose a gar split. If we can get 6 guys and myself to pony up maybe $50-$60 apiece, we might win the gar for a mere $300-$400 .

    If we win, I'll run it through my band saw and distribute each winner one inch. I'll keep the extra half inch for handling the deal.

    What say yea, men ?

    I'll take this one...

    No man handles my deal, especially for $50-$60. Besides, you'd have to take more than half an inch.

    Can't you guys get serious about anything?????

    Come on, its gotta be worth something to run your part of the deal through the band saw....think of the mess to be cleaned up later .

    Well, you guys blew it...the gar went for a pittance, $161.

    http://www.cigarbid.com/auction/lot.cfm?lotID=365304

    We could have had it for $21.50 an inch.

    I know two real live people who have smoked that $40 soaked in cognac gurkha thing, and both told me it was unsmokable.

    Imagine getting a short ways into a $161 gar and having to stub it out .

    Actually, a friend of mine won one of these cigars in a poker tournament sponsored by Gurkha. He was shocked at how it smoked considering its cost. Said it was pretty plain, and the thing smelled like blueberries when it was lit...
