Re: Pre-order for Pete's mini monsters has begun!
 
I pre-ordered from another vendor but have not heard anything from them yet. Not too worried as there should be plenty of these to go around. They were originally slated to be a 5,000 box release and than I heard rumor that Pete doubled that but either way that's a chit load of sticks to go around and there should be more than enough for everyone. I don't need to be the first to get mine as I will probably sit on them a few weeks before smoking anyway.

I too read online from various sources that it was double to 10,000 boxes. However, what I heard at the store that it was actually reduced. I'm not sure who to believe at this moment, all I know is that they're pretty tasty

i always come back only to find something awesome like this has happened. if anyone has any extra's of anything they are looking to sell shoot me a pm!

ucubed 06-13-2012 03:16 PM

Re: Pre-order for Pete's mini monsters has begun!
 
Lil Drac (great after the half), Wolfie (overall great), Babyface (one flavor/one dimensional, but good), Frank Jr (great start and finishes soft), and Mini Mum (too good). Just my 2 cents. While there are still rumors that Pete upped it to 10k boxes, I was still told as of today it was actually cut in half in the amount of boxes. Worth the buy for sure if people are still considering it limited or not

are they still out there!?!?!?

Until Pete comes out and say, "Hey, just kidding, there are a crap ton of boxes still" then they're going to be hard to come by. Corona has started a second pre-order list in case we get more, so you'll have to order it online and that's not guaranteed still. I'd say call around shops and see for certain

we have them at work still, see my above post for more info. We're expecting two more shipments of them even when we run out of this shipment.

i don't see them going for that much in the future. the only tats that are truely worth double their original value are the tat black cg's from the jar, frank and boris or cojonu 03 OR. if all 4 little monsters were amazing like those cigars were then i could see it double the price in a few years but from what i've heard they aren't super great sticks that can compete with the frank/boris/black cg ect ect (not to say they are bad by any means though).

another point though is the black cg's from the jar or not, are starting to not smoke as well as they were.. thats only from what i've heard though from other people.

just my :2. I'd still take as many boxes as i can get though but for bombing/my own pleasure purposes i could careless about selling them for profit.

Just as a collectors item alone though, people would pay a mint a few years down the road.

I've seen lots of members on here looking for the older monster series and the box's alone.

Yea, just knowing that alone, I am tempted to buy a box and stash it away for a few years.

Corona's website says orders may be limited to 1 box per costumer. Has that been the case so far?

Most sites were that way on the preorders. The vendor I used encouraged me to buy three by throwing in free shipping if I bumped it up. The third box was claimed by a buddy of mine. Would have loved to kept all three but storage space is super tight.

Mine was. One should be showing up today or tomorrow. The other when they get more in.

I'm going to assume you're asking if any are left, in which case, yes. There's still more shipments to go out(we're expecting two more shipments at work) and some places may still have some left(I know we do).

Re: Pre-order for Pete's mini monsters has begun!
 
ughh anyone that has multiple boxes want to trade for a mini mum card??? And yes Mike, many retailers are limited to 1 per customer because of the limited-ness of the boxes... The only complicated thing is whether or not Pete indeed increased the box count to 10k or reduced to 2k... Assuming Pete's trend, I would assume the latter, however I would not be surprised for the former

688sonarmen 06-15-2012 06:02 AM

Re: Pre-order for Pete's mini monsters has begun!
 
Is there any proof of how many boxes are being released? I think that this is being blown out of proportion here, not intentionally but if the factory is/is not releasing #'s why add to the hype? Also what are the chances of these tasting like the originals? It's been years since some have come out and they are different vitolas.
