With the exception of Tampa Sweethearts, that's a great list of vendors to avoid when looking to purchase Opus Xes.

Offer a bit of constructive help then to us ignorant shoppers. I just used the Google...the same one that if I had not, some snide comment would have undoubtedly hatched.

I think he just did.
A bit edgy but helpful nonetheless.

Wouldn't it be easier to tell someone the definitive place to go for these 10.00 opusx instead of mention one place to start with prices that are comparable to what I have found locally and was told the prices were "double to quadruply" overpriced?
I guess if I knew of the hot deal I would not offer snarkey responses without really having the info to back it.
I offered Garry help the best I could. Wont others do the same?

I think I understand. But the comment was on the vendors. Not on your effort or intent to help. I didn't see it as a jab at you. Just a word of warning that those vendors may be overpriced.

My and worth as much.

I did give him an MSRP vendor, way back in post #5. In fact, I was the first person in the thread to post a vendor with better prices.

MSRP on Opus Xes is actually quite reasonable. $10 to $15 on the average, some vitolas are less, a few are more. Special/rare shapes can run higher.

Note, that state taxes are going to be on top of that, so depending on how oppressive your state is they can be significant, but, if you order from out of state you should not be charged it.
Here's my hang up...."sweethearts" lowest price is 26.50 per cigar. Where can they be found for 10-15 "on average"?
I found them for 15-22 from one B&M and up to 34 at another, You say my provided prices are "double or quadruple" overpriced. Even with the benefit of doubt half of my low price (excluding the quadruple factor) is 7.50...you can find a retailer for that? Now to the high side...even half of 34.00 is 17.00 and 1/4 (quadruple factor) is what 8.50...can you provide a retailer for that?
the last thing I offered was the tin of three of different vitolas ranging from 55.00 (for three)/18.33 each OR 68.00 (for three)22.66 each
These are also aged from 06.
So I ask again can you provide somewhere for people to purchase opusX cigars (in stock) for the 10-15 "on average" (us dollars I assume your talking).
Please post said link or phone number.
so far the lowest cost offer is what I have offered. feel free to beat the offer all to heck. I would like to purchase more than the lonely one I have.

Garry I do apologize for hijacking your thread just trying to get the best deal for you,me and.....
