Good deal! Glad you like them. Like I said, you'll have a hard time finding a better cigar at the same price. Other decent cheaper cigars are the Cuban Crafters Don Kiki line. I prefer either the Green label Torpedo, or the Brown label Figurado. The Red labels taste almost exactly like the Green to me, only a bit more bitter. You can get them for less than $40 bucks a box/bundle.
The Salazar Bros. smokes they sell are quite good, but far from cheap. The flavor profiles of the ones I smoked were similar to some ISOM sticks I've had. Box pressed, they were smooth and mild bodied, with rich copious smoke, and an unusually strong nicotene kick. These sticks were a couple years back though, and cigars change with every batch. As with all opinions, YMMV.
