Even a cheap Guantanamera cigar is $10 here... Thats why I buy a majority of my cigars from Ccom. Even with the shipping across the border is cheaper by at least half for me.
Currently I have some GOF's that are resting. Most I have ever spent on a single stick, definitely. I plan to pick up a few Opus and Padron sticks that will be in that ballpark as well though.
I'll let you know when I get that humi seasoned. I've got a Don Carlos Anniversary that's been resting for at least 9 months now. That's gonna be my celebration cigar for getting the cabinet up and running.
Opus X XXX - $18. Not even close to worth it. I may be the only one, but I didn't get anything from this cigar I can't get from a MOW Ruination or even an RyJ Reserva Real. I can get the full-body and better flavor from the MOW Ruination, and a better experience and enjoyment from the RyJ RR, if not the body. I mean, it was good, but nothing spectacular, and the flavors just never developed for me. It was a gift, so yeah, it was worth it to me (haha), but nothing I would spend my money on personally. I'd rather spend $20 for an RyJ Limitada.
Lets see ........ I have a few Camacho PE's that i got great deals on here at ccom ........ i have a few Sol Cubano Artisan's that got on great deals ..... A few CAO Sporano's The Boss that I got a great deal on ...... I have my first Opus X that was gifted by MY BBOTLF ( Best Brother Of The Leaf Forever) AlienMisprint ........ but those have yet to be smoked .... the most expesive that i paid out of pocket for was an AVO Domaine bought at a B&M for almost 15 bucks ...... I'd rate it a 9 ......... i feel it was worth it
Padron 1926 80yr: 30 dollars and a 9rating. Worth it for me. Best cigar I ever had.
Davidoff Special R: 20 dollars and 8.5 rating. Worth it for me
God of Fire 2006 Carlito: 27 dollars and a 7 rating. Not worth it at all.
I think these are the only 3 cigars that I have ever spent more than 20 dollars on. and 2 of them were fantastic. All three were at special occasions out at a B&M with friends so I over paid, but its the nature of the high roller game.
$26.00 retail for a padron '64 Imperial Maduro. It was worth it, but I don't buy them retail anymore. I did pay $31.00 (I think it was 31) for an ISOM cohiba siglo IV (I think it was a IV) last year and it wasn't worth it. Well, maybe it was at least for the knowledge that I gained.

woah! $26 for a 1964 Maduro? yikes! That's a bit of a price hike on that one, lol. The exclusivo viotola is absolutely knock-your socks off - think with a box split and the 10% discount for the COTMC we paid less than $11 a stick from ccom. YUMMY!

It was a pretty sweet deal.......I look at them everyday and get excited.
Lets see I have a few Comacho Pre-Embargo's that I paid $40 for a 3 pack and a few Opus X's and those where $14. Dont know if they are worth it yet I seem to talk myself out of smoking them everytime I look at one. One of the Opus's, the one I picked up at the herf down in Akron, I am saving for my birthday so unless I can convince myself to have one of the XXX's that I have I will have to let you know. I have a feeling that the Pre-Embargo's will be worth every penny from what everyone is saying I just havent brough myself to have one.

Where the heck do you guys find Opus Xs for 14$?? Having never had one, I would GLADLY pay that instead of the 30$ they fetch online.
Some local shops have them at those prices. I got one from a shop about an hour from me for $14 and change and my local shop has the XXX for $13 and change. That is the MSRP on them but if you look on here click read more on the discription of the cigar and there is a link about pricing for them. They price them higher so they dont sell out super fast on some of the rare and hard to find sticks.

Yea, I find them in my local shop from $14-$18 when they have them in stock. Usually the Anejo has about the same price tag. They are both well worth the price!

First off, call Ccom. You'd be suprised at the deals they can work on the phone. Just sayin. Other than that, NC. For some reason, cigars are alot cheaper in NC. Gurkha Beasts are about $8-10, Ashton VSG are $12-15, Opus X's are $12-18 or so. I actually bought a box worth of Pefexion No 4 and No 5 a year ago. There were like 23 cigars, it came out to around 280.

A good smoke, but not worth paying the Canadian prices for it.
All hail the Ccom Robusto
