Looking for

[ashauler]

Oliva Master Blends 1. Would like to find a couple of these, but have a suspicion that the price may be very high, and the opportunity to get ripped off just as high. Being a newbie, this is my first foray into the "rare/hard-to-get" cigar arena, so I am somewhat leery about just searching around the net, and unsure as to what a reasonable price would be. The B/SOTL's here seemed like my best first choice to find these.

I had the MB2 for New Years and loved it....will be picking up the MB3 as soon as it hits the shelf at the B/M, so as a collector of things I am now borderline obsessed with finding at least one MB1 to complete my collection.

I don't want to get my head ripped off anywhere, so if anyone has a line on a couple of these please pm me with the details and see if we can work something out.

I wish I did, but all my MB 1's are ancient history, and I just smoked my last MB2 a few months ago. Good luck in your search though.

Thank you sir for the well wishes in my hunt. I found this site on a google search: www.bonitasmokeshop.com/Oliva%20Cigars.htm if you scroll down the page, they have master blend 1 for $128 box or $8 by the single........seems like a really good price to me....like too good to be true maybe?

Anybody heard of this place before?

Well that's about what I paid for my MB2's at my B&M, but I have never heard of this place before, anyone else?

Thanks cnb!! I got my MB2 Robusto's for $6.75 each and the torps for $8.75.....so yeah, it's close....which really is what makes me kind of suspicious. This is the only place I have found that has them (supposedly) in stock, and I would have thought they would be MORE expensive since they were limited production a couple of years ago and won't be made again. Every other site I have visited has MB2 and MB3, but most don't even have a reference for MB1 any longer or it says out of stock.

Well, crap, I guess caution and indecision will cost me here. The link I posted yesterday now does not list the MB1....I should have just bought the damn things and took the chance.

Back to the hunt!!
