Your thoughts on availability

After reading Ian's post on the Serie V Maduro, I started to wonder what your thoughts are on cigar availability.

In the case of the Serie V Maduro, they are being allocated to cigar shops around the county. Each shop is suppoed to get 2 on average. Do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?

My only comparison would be something like the Opus X. They come out twice a year and only go to top tier Fuente accounts. They become much harder to find and as a result they tend to be price gouged.

Do you think that allocating two boxes per store means you have a better chance of getting them over one account getting several boxes?

I'm of the mindset that this will definitely help level the playing field and will make them more attainable. What are your thoughts on the subject?
