Cigars becoming like baseball cards?

I only hunt for cigars with an RG too large to fit in my mouth. I bet those will be worth something in a few years

Good analogy. Rocky Patel is definitely the Upper Deck of cigar manufacturers. Now I'm off to put some coronas in my bike spokes.

I blame Fuente, since it seems they started the whole idea of ultra rare, one-of-kind footballs and culebras with stripes and polka dots, etc...

Not everybody does it, but certain cigar makers have certainly followed suit and embraced the whole idea of collectible limited runs with great success, (like Tatuaje). Regardless of whether or not you agree with it, limited editions seem to generate tons of publicity and excitement among cigar nuts like ourselves.

We love to ***** about them but we all scour the ends of the earth hunting them down. We are a nutty bunch.
