A serious discussion on aging

[Cheroot]

How much do aged habanos go for anyways? If same pricing was applied to non-habanos, would there be any demand? And if they were priced less, would it be worth doing?

Depends on the Habano. If it was rolled between 1999 and 2001, it will likely be the same price or in fact cheaper than normal price. But if it's an Edicion Limitada, you'll pay a pretty penny. For example, Partagas Serie D No. 3s will reach into the upper hundreds of dollars per box if you can find legitimate ones. A box of 1998 Trinidad Fundadores can be $800. But you can find 1994 La Coronas for less than $100 a box. It really depends on the cigar. I don't think there would be really any demand if this pricing were placed on aged non-Cubans, save for, say, the aforementioned Opus X. People pay stupid prices for those fresh.
