So far so good. Less than an inch into my first one. Having only had one other T52 before, I can't say for sure if it's got the same flavor profile. But I'm thoroughly enjoying it right now. Different than the No.9 FP.

What the hell? Suddenly there's interest in his cigars and he jacks the price up 50%? I understand supply and demand, but sheesh.

I bought the 3 boxes for 80.00 and did not like them at all...too mild for my tastes....sold all three for $60.00 to get rid of them.....

Hope your experience is better than mine...

Yikes. Mine cleared on the 15th and they were still 40+7.

That's not cool jacking up the price. Who does this guy think he is? Pete Johnson?

I just sent an email to Craig Brown concerning pricing for CA members as I believe it was CA members that caused a surge in his sales to begin with. I will post his reply when I get it.

huh, I always wondered who won that thing

nice flying pigs! I've never had the T52, but since I hear they're stronger, I'd probably like the #9 in comparison (its already one of, if not the top spot in my favorites)

nice pickups so far

Got an email back from Craig Brown on Cerdan pricing for CA members. Craig is going to keep the price at 60.00 per box or 3 boxes for 120.00 due to having less then 50 boxes left. I respect his decision and am glad he got back to me in a timely manner. Sorry guys, I tried. I guess the lesson is when you see a good deal, don't hesitate.

Yeah, I don't really understand the difference between having 150 boxes of an out of production cigar or 50 boxes. Either way the fact is there isn't much left and they will never be produced again.

To put this in perspective with something a lot of us have followed recently...when Barclay Rex was selling their Tatuaje Anniversary cigar it wasn't $250 for a box until they had 25 boxes left then $375 a box...That's essentially what this guy did.

If he wants to slow his sales down though, this will definitely work. I think we were all jumping on these because they were such a great deal, and I can guarantee you that the majority of his recent sales were from CA. Now that they're $60 a box, while they're still cheap, they're not really that interesting anymore.
