About $600, I only order a couple of times per year. I do make an occasional purchase of El Cobre's and some Perdomo Mistakes but I am pretty much set in my ways and am limited in my smoking due to having a couple of strokes and a bypass operation on my right leg. Saves me some money.

Nice score and they look bigger than expected unless it's just the photo. The box is unique but not practical when humidor space is usually so limited for most of us with the sickness. To think I hated when Oliva made the V Maddie boxes bigger than the 2008 boxes. With boxes like that and the MOAB box you need some serious free space.
Those are only limited to one shop correct?

Yes, limited to 100 boxes of 20 at Tobacco Grove. And the Zombie does look bigger than expected when everyone was complaining about paying $10 for a smaller vitola.

Is size the only criteria for pricing a cigar? What would be a more appropriate price for the Zombie for instance?

Nope, just comparing the price to other robustos...the cigar is obviously not overpriced, since they sold out so quickly.

Got a box of the special SI-15 Padron 64 jawbreakers:



Asked for half Maduro, half Regular wrappers. Nice smoke; did a review in this section on my thoughts on these jawbreakers.
