One thing to keep in mind is that NHC (not sure if Smoke Inn did it too or not) offered the discounted Tier pricing as a pre-sale.  So those lower priced sticks were sold before they arrived.  Anything else after that pre-sale is bumped to the regular pricing.  I know some shops that are/were offering the discounted pricing even at release, as they still had stock that was bought at the during the "futures" period.

Correct.  But Atlantic still has them at $15 a stick.  I believe that was the price of the lowest "tier."

But the shop JerseyJay provided looks to be the lowest

Nice price from Fullers. If I am doing the math correct that means that Newhavanacigars is $45 more. Does this mean that newhavanacigars are gouging cigar BOTL's? His prices seem to be higher than a lot of other places.  :nana:

I think MSRP for the CH is $15, and for the Rob is $12... if a retailer is charging more than MSRP, I would say they are gouging.  Anything over the MSRP price is pure profit for the retailers.

I bought a 2008 CH from a shop in Myrtle Beach to smoke when I was vacationing down there a few months ago and they they charged me $21 + tax.  If I wasn't on vacation and I didn't want a decent cigar so bad, I would have told them where to stick that stick...

Incorrect...

The MSRP of the 2009 La Verite Churchill is $25 and the Robusto is $20.

The pre-sales or "futures" had them at $12 and $15 I believe.

I thought I saw the same cigars at Fullers for $135. At newhavanacigars I thought they were $180. This was just a fast glance also. I could be missing something. Peace.

Alright, I know that I did miss something here. Please correct me if I am wrong. "futures" does that mean that someone bought cigars before seeing or smoking was done by anyone? Come on noone is that stupid are they?

OK, thanks for clarifying...  like I said in my post, I really wasn't sure.
