So I just went to a local cigar shop

[mhortsch]

Just to see their selection. I try to avoid buying from the local shops unless I find something I usually don't see.

Arturo Fuente Chateau Natural . . . $10.79 +tax :0 :0 :0 :0

Unbelievable.

Ouch. I just got a chateau sungrown for $4.00.

Holy poop - I thought the shop near me was overpriced at just over $6

 

[Jeffro600]

That is pretty high....even our local theivery shop only sells them for 8 bucks and some change.

 

[mhortsch]

Yeah, I felt like saying something to the guy...mind you they also sell the yellow dominican cohibas

 

[fetterjohn]

Ya'll should come out to California...you'd all @#$T your pants with the prices. $10.80 for a double chateau is a great deal...I'd jump all over that bad boy!!!! :laugh: Seriously.

-Fetter ???

 

[symyn]

FetterJ is right, my local store just raised its prices and it wasn't just on good cigars, it was on the under 5 dollar ones, which are not under five anymore...

I was at my cigar shop and spend $40 on 4 sticks

I even asked the guy how they can compete with the internet.

He told me flat out he can't

I dont think I am going to buy localy anymore. Its just too much money.

That $40 I could of bought 10 sticks on cbid.

[mhortsch]

sorry to say, it wasn't a double chateau.

I would only go to a local shop if they had a lounge. But even then I would only buy 1 or 2 sticks. I used to go to them but not since my home selection is usually better than thiers. :laugh:
