For a $1000, I'd get a 48 QT cooler and fill 'er up with chit I like. Rare or HTF doesn't mean good or particularly something I might like. Crafty shopping and you could get a nice collection of stuff you really like for $1k. I'd let the guy keep his collection.

If I'm going to spend $1000 on cigars I'm damned sure going to spend it on things I like, not take a shot that somebody else's collection will have things that are to my taste. If I ended up not liking 1/3 of the smokes, that's $333. I can get a box of T52s for that and have enough left over for a 10-er of Padron 1964 Annys.

Now having said that, if you trust that the guy has stored the cigars properly, for a novice looking to try a bunch of different smokes, $1000 for 500 cigars and 3 humi's is not a bad deal at all. If you don't trust that they've been cared for properly, walk away.

Sounds like FNA may be the seller. Like others have said $1,000 for that? Nah, pass on that bro. The Tatuaje La Verites 2008's can be found in stock at some B&Ms. In fact my B&M has an entire case of it looks like 100 or more.. (I have no idea how they were sold). Anyways, Graycliffs are not very hard or hard to come by. Ultimately it comes down to your decision but as another member telling another I probably wouldn't buy it. You can do so many things with $1,000. Buy a cooler and go to cigar bid and get a bunch of stuff to try.
