Re: Buying HTF sticks from On Line Auctions.

I know when I get my hands on a higher $ stick (high $ is $15 for me so far), it doesn't do me any good looking pretty in the humidor. I would be likely to spend a few more dollars on some of the HTF sticks, though. I'm not buying a box at $150-200 so I do most of my buying in singles and 5 packs. And frankly, I have never seen a GOF or Opus X in one of my local stores.

God of Fire.com has the MSRP at $168 for a box of 8, that would make them roughly $21 MSRP, I know I've paid more for them but I really wanted to get my hands on a couple (I'm a huge sucker for the rare Fuente stuff).

Here is the link:

Hope this helps, for what it's worth I didn't think these cigars were worth it. Good smokes don't get me wrong but for the price and hype I was disappointed. But I did really enjoy having them in my humidor, I proudly looked at them quite a bit before lighting up.

The point is though, don't pay exorbitant prices for already expensive cigars.

Re: Buying HTF sticks from On Line Auctions.

I would think it would be a good idea to try to start up a thread with the average MSRP for the cigars so we could all refer to them once in awhile to compare prices and whatnot. I know if I were to go on vacation somewhere to a bigger city....it would be some great info to use! However, I do not really know any of the MSRP's for the cigars or I'd start the thread myself. Maybe one of the older and wiser puffers can help us out?

Well! Here is a very good source and list. Hoe this helps.

CigarCyclopedia.com's Comparison Shopper


And for Opus, Hemingway, and other Fuente, this is pretty close.

Re: Buying HTF sticks from On Line Auctions.

Wow Andy. Thanks! There is a lot of great info there. I think this is gonna help out quite a bit!

Now, I just need to know how I'm going to take 200+ pages of cigar information with me the next time I go on vacation.

Edit: Increased Ring Gauge for Andy!

Haha, well I do have a laptop. I just meant that it would look rediculous carrying around 200 pages walking through the humidor looking for the best deals. I'm not worried too much about it, I think I will most likely be looking at the Padron and Fuente pages!

Thanks again Andy!
