A little Opus lovin'

Silound · 06-22-2009, 11:49 PM

So Rob at Taboo was VERY generous with his Opus shipment, and I had to jump all over it (as if I had a choice

)

Gonna be burning quite a few of these in the next week, and probably sitting on a few for a while for special occasions.

Thanks Rob!

That's an Opus Woodstock!

Awesome haul. Let them rest though.

I need to check the prices at Taboo I guess.

Lorglath · 06-23-2009, 12:11 AM

Not really...I happened to be online and looking for some King B's and during one of my refreshes I saw Opus and jumped for some.

Same here (well, more like $25-30 a cigar)

. I plan on smoking this 1st Opus on the next perfect weekend weather wise (little humidity, no wind, no rain in the forecast).

DoctaJ · 06-23-2009, 02:39 AM

Well, I'm going by that $ number by the fact they had Opus X cigars (and the only time I have seen them there in the 10 months I have lived here) in the Fuente Fuente tin of 3 for $81. Needless to say I backed off at that price

. I did get an e-mail that they will have a new shipment in either today or Wednesday, so I will stop in to see what a single will cost. I have a feeling I will cave in to a higher price since they are so hard to find and I would love to have another one or two in the humidor

I am slobbering all over myself,,,,those look delicious.

kelmac07 · 06-23-2009, 09:10 AM

A shop here has them...but they won't ship...I would ship though if all the costs were covered. I just got a few Perfexions for $16 ea and they have the tins for $40ish. I am glad to help a few brothers out.

'Dem is some good looking cigars!! Enjoy!

Wow, that is very upstanding of you to offer up that opportunity

. I am going to check out the B&M tomorrow to see if they have some Perfexion X's in stock and how much they are. I'm hoping perhaps the price of the tin when I saw it a month ago was not the norm. I don't have my hopes up though

. If not, I may be sending a PM your way

Yeah, I stopped in yesterday and the perfexions were $16, lanceros $12 (I think), and the smaller ones $8. The tins were $50ish but I know at another local shop they were cheaper. I would have no problem picking up what you need.
