Or maybe they are off setting a production price increase. Change to a cheaper band so that the profit margin stays the same without having to raise the price of the cigar.

My only rant is they discontinued the 601 Black which is/was a fantastic cigar.

Definitely not a fan of the new bands...they look too generic for me.

Who cares about the band? What matters is the tobacco underneath. Eddie Ortega did announce a price decrease on 601. I don't mind the new bands at all. Makes them stick out and are much easier to read and see. They looked great at IPCPR.

Had my first one today and it was great. I didn't have any trouble with the label. Maybe next time ill toast it before I get to it so it burns a little better.

I think the new bands are pretty bad, but the cigar is still great.

I do not buy a cigar for the band.
However, when looking to try a new cigar I have to admit, the marketing of the cigar does have some impact. If the box and band look cheap and I am looking at a pricey cigar, I will more than likely pass. If the marketing shows that there has been some effort put forth, then I assume (until proven otherwise) that the cigar had that much attention as well.

Just my two cents...

Well, that's why I asked the question. If you notice, I didn't say it was a bad cigar, just wondered what other thought of the band.

I agree. Obviously, we have too much time on our hands to discuss how pretty bands are. LOL!

It's a conversation, simple as that. It has absolutely nothing to do with the amount of time I/we have on our hands. If there were no discussion on the board, it would be quite lame. There was a change of bands, a drastic change of bands, hell, I don't even smoke 601's, really don't care for them that much.
