What would you do....

EricF · 11-26-2010, 12:01 PM

with this?

Save it, smoke it or sell it?

kelmac07 · 11-26-2010, 12:07 PM

Gurhka Grand Reserve?? Hell, fire it up!!

EricF · 11-26-2010, 12:08 PM

It's a HMR

kelmac07 · 11-26-2010, 12:10 PM

DAMN!! That's a $ 750 stick...but then again, it's a Gurhka.

I'd still fire it up.

11-26-2010, 12:11 PM

Torch it bro! Enjoy it and tell us about it!

Yeah that is true it is still just a Gurhka, but a real expensive one

The guy who gave it to me says that you can get drunk from it, I think just a mean nic buzz

maninblack · 11-26-2010, 12:17 PM

$750?! WTF? Smoke that bastard. Down to the nub. And then tell us how much it sucked.

11-26-2010, 12:19 PM

If I could find some knucklehead to give me a few hundred bucks for it, I would sell it... and buy a couple nice boxes of smokes. If not, fire it up...

Cheers,
G

And what could make it worth anywhere near this #?

Bill86 · 11-26-2010, 12:22 PM

It's a $750 Gurkha the only thing that makes sense is to sell it. See if you can't get $200 for it. I could never keep a cigar THAT expensive. Considering some of the TOP CC's are $40-$100..Gurkha has no place to charge near what they do for a cigar.

I'm afraid I'd get sick from it or it would taste like dog poop

If i was offered money for it i'd probably take it. I could get a lot of good smokes for that much!

Exactly what I would do

11-26-2010, 12:30 PM

That cigar cost $750? Wow, I guess the real question is how much it is worth. I would try to sell it for as much as possible and use the money for some baller CC's. Dunhill, Davi's, maybe a single 1492 if someone is willing to sell you one

That's just me though.

$1100.00 on some luxury bid sites. Apparently it is very hard to get. I personally would never even think of buying one, but this one was gifted to me last night before dinner.

hotreds · 11-26-2010, 12:40 PM

Try and sell it, absolutely!

Bill86 · 11-26-2010, 12:43 PM

These use to be on CI, they aren't really hard to get at all or at least they weren't a month or two back. They are just deathly expensive ....and Gurkha. I WOULD NOT smoke that cigar google the reviews, no one is impressed.

These are also on Cbid from time to time, 4 years ago someone scored one for $195 shipped. So you know the markup here.....INSANE.

Part of me agrees with those who advise selling it, but, it would be wicked thoughtless to sell a gift someone has given you. Of course, that would also depend upon the nature of your relationship with the giver.

Eric, as it was gifted to you, I suggest you smoke it and let the gifter know if you enjoyed it or not, or re gift it. When I give cigars I hope that person either smokes the cigars, or, if they don't like them will at least re gift to someone whom they know will enjoy them. Just my

If you can get $150 for it, sell it. Buy a box of Habanos with the proceeds.
