We all joke about the $1.79 cigar, but don't get bogged down in thinking that price somehow directly relates to quality. My vino is full of cigars that I really enjoy smoking--cigars that anyone here would be happy to smoke--and I can't think of a single one that cost me even $10. In fact, all of my go-to's are in the $4-5 range or less. There can be some correlation between price and quality, but it's more likely that a low price cigar is crap (although even then there are exceptions) than a high price cigar is good.

I'm sure many will disagree with me. This is an age-old debate. The key is to smoke what you like and like what you smoke. (And the other key--once you find what you like, you can probably find it for cheaper.)
