Where do you buy boxes, what time of the year do they come out?

You said it. The sad thing is, people will buy them even at these prices.

Re: cigar.com advertising OpusX....

I have enjoyed the Opus I have smoked and they have a unique flavor and structure, but they are certainly not worth the $$ they usually sell for imo.

Fuente really needs to get a handle on dealers price gouging.

Re: cigar.com advertising OpusX....

Cigar.com is not an authorized Opus X dealer. They have to buy them at retail, with a huge mark up, because they want quantity. So, they mark them up again. The total is usually about 150% + of authorized MSRP. Any cigar through them is MSRP or higher. I've spoken to the owner, he won't budge.

Re: cigar.com advertising OpusX....

Unreal,,,,do they step up onto a scale before they are allowed to buy these cigars as I'm sure they are having their wallets weighted beforehand?

Re: cigar.com advertising OpusX....

Well, not for me, thanks....
Are these really that much more enjoyable than others costing say 6 to 8?
