    I've been wondering about cuban prices. Does Habanos issue a MSRP?

    Incoming bad weather meant I had to move my Base Opps to under cover to enjoy these King "B's" that just arrived from an admirer in Ca.

    Dr. Stranglove, what kind of shotgun is in that pic? Is it a Benelli or a Mossberg 930 SPX. How do you like it?

    I was staying at The Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco a few weeks back and visited their onsite cigar shop. They still have pre-embargo Cuban cigars for sale there, which was extremly impressive for a relatively newbie (10 years) like me. Needless to say, the price is well adjusted to the market value but I am sure they are well worth the price for the few that can afford them.

    ^^^Sure.

    I find them to be no better on their best days than an Opux X which I get for about $13. For the price I have seen them go for, they are worth maybe about half their weight in gold! No way I am paying that. Its cheaper to get new cubans!

    And another point, I first started seeing these things in about 1996. Now then, there is no way they are still selling them unless there were literally HUNDREDS of thousands of them in PERFECT storage. So when I see "pre-embargo cubans" take it with a grain (Or several hundred.) of salt.

    My cigar is bigger than yours!

    18in x 52

    Going to smoke it in celebration of a new job, a new masters degree, and my recent popping of the big question...all in one week!

    Top it! :)
