They told me that they had stocked up on them moreso than usual because of the fear of the impending tobacco tax that would make these already expensive boxes even that much more expensive. They literally had Opus X sampler boxes stacked 5 rows wide and higher than my head (I'm 6'2") on an endcap in their store! If you're in the Orlando area, I highly suggest you stop by here.

i'll pass if they have the usual prices on them. thanks for the heads up though jason!

Yeah, I noticed I was paying a LOT higher than any price I had ever paid at a B&M for anything in there. I guess you're paying for atmosphere and convenience. However...their customer service is amazing, I must say.

Was just in Northern Indiana (Mishawaka) at a TinderBox, walked in looked at their selection, wondered around. Then asked if they had any Sharks, the one employee looked over to the other they kind of shared this odd look and said, "well we had a box but we sold it already" then they just kind of smiled at each other. I knew they were lying to me, it really pi$$ed me off. Don't know why you would hold back stock from paying customers

They got in misc boxes of Opus and Anejo's and have been putting a two per customer limit on each vitola to make sure more people get a chance to buy some.

And all of them are maybe 10% over retail and that's it. Not too bad.

Probably put 'em aside for their regulars, David....lots of B&Ms take care of their regulars on this kind of stuff.

Yeah I can understand that...But it's like they were passing judgment and decided that I wasn't good enough to buy them. I guess that is what really pi$$ed me off

Found 'em! They were in some gift sets of 4, which I did not mind one bit.
