Stopped by a B&M today and happened to notice a huge box sitting on the ground with some other boxes on them. Moved the crap off the top and realized it was what I thought it was, the Partagas 150 humidor from 2000. Slid it out and opened it up and sure enough, it was full! Immediately walked out and asked the clerk about pricing. Sadly, they will only sell it as a whole unit for $3500 :( Man, I really wanted to pick up a few 150's since I've already had the Ramon y Ramon that was in there, but it was a no go.

    If it's the chest, there are 50 Partagas 150s and 100 Ramon y Ramon tribute cigars.
    Most chests are going for about $4k. So the $3500 is with in reason.
    If I could swing that kind of cash, I'd be all over it.

    Putting it into numbers, assuming you can sell the humidor for $500, that leaves the sticks at $20 ea.

    Zero! It's not that I can't find/get them. I was just hoping to snag a bunch dirt cheap. It's the kind of place that could easily have had no idea what they were.

    "It's the kind of place that could easily have had no idea what they were." .....and you would sleep soundly at night knowing you took advantage of a poor old cigar shop that missed the opportunity to price gouge people because a product they forgot about actually appreciated in value vs depreciating? Sheesh...some people's kids! ;)

    Hey Zimmy, I'm assuming you are in NY, so it's a little ways away. It was a small shop near me in MI.

    Smokers Palace in Lapeer. They say they will only sell as a whole, but I did notice a couple sticks missing. Good luck.

    Don't you dare. As it is, I need to reload my BIL's humidor just to make space in my cooler for things I want to buy and you guys keep refilling it for me. KNOCK IT OFF!
