You will have a blast. Herfing is the best.

Re: anejo hunters
 

I just picked up two reserva xtra viejo. The will go nicely next to my aging opus.

Which is the anejo shark?

They had several cases of samplers at about $189 a piece. A bit out of my price range. Anyone else seen these?

Shark is the 77. It's a square to round, box pressed belicoso. Not to be confused with the #55 torpedo. Shark is the only one without cedar.

Re: anejo hunters
 

if you got them at tinderbox in lakeland you probably got ripped off. those holiday samplers also MSRP for 110 and can be had if you look around a bit for 100.

if you go into tampa there are plenty of places to get stuff close to MSRP if not MSRP.

That is where I went. The singles were 13.99. Is that bad?

Re: anejo hunters
 

which singles? opus or anejo and which sizes?

Re: anejo hunters
 

Regardless of what they were, I've seen worse. If they were Opus and some of the larger sizes, then it's not bad at all. Any smaller opus or any Anejos would be overpriced at that price, but not too offensive compared to others I've seen. I wouldn't buy at that price unless I was only getting a couple.

Re: anejo hunters
 

Those were Anejos...about 6 by 48.

I'm okay with it, as I've never had one and I couldn't find them any place else. Not sharks, but xtra viejos. Its cool. Tinderbox in lakeland lilkes to gouge the prices, but it could be worse.

Re: anejo hunters
 

there is another shop if you want to drive into tampa. cigar castle and they always have opus and anejos and they are a couple of bucks cheaper. they generally have all sizes in stock.

now if you want them really cheap but only two at a time go to ybor and visit tampa sweethearts. you can buy two at a time at MSRP which is less than 10$ for whatever size you want.

Re: anejo hunters
 

I couldn't live near tampa sweethearts, the temptation would be too much for me! It's bad enough getting the tempting emails. I would be divorced, broke, or both!

A rumor I just heard last night was that Fuente was shipping more Anejo's to stores that are payed up to Fuente then to stores who owe them . Don't know how true this is but a store by me has gotten at least 5 boxes of Anejo's(1-#55 , 1-#46 , 1-#50 and 2-#77"s), 3 boxes-Hemingway Maduro's , 3 boxes-Opus X and 1 box of Hemingway Between the Lines . They usually don't get that many Anejo's and have never seen the BTL's there before .

Re: anejo hunters
 

Final selling price: $360 :hn

Re: anejo hunters
 

it depends on the volume of the dealer really. a local who charges too much got 4 boxes of anejos, btl's and a box of sig classics. the next shop got 10 boxes of anejos, btl's, woam, sigs, classics and UTS. they also got a second shipment. the messed up thing is that this is my usual shop and they were suppose to get more than a few boxes of opus. the newmans messed up and sent their opus to a different shop with the same name. the shop refused to give the opus back and now they haven't gotten any opus besides the tins.

BTW, they are doing some higher quality and rarer releases this time around because they aren't shipping as much in quantity to some places. some dealers who usually get a few boxes might not get any this year.

Re: anejo hunters
 

Guys, I just got back from Orlando on a business trip and had the pleasure of visiting the Corona Cigar Company. If you guys are looking for Anejo Xtra Viejo, Opus X, or even God Of Fire, they are LOADED with boxes upon boxes of each. They told me that they had stocked up on them moreso than usual because of the fear of the impending tobacco tax that would make these already expensive boxes even that much more expensive. They literally had Opus X sampler boxes stacked 5 rows wide and higher than my head (I'm 6'2") on an endcap in their store! If you're in the Orlando area, I highly suggest you stop by here. :tu

Re: anejo hunters
 

i'll pass if they have the usual prices on them. thanks for the heads up though jason!

Re: anejo hunters
 

Yeah, I noticed I was paying a LOT higher than any price I had ever paid at a B&M for anything in there. I guess you're paying for atmosphere and convenience. However...their customer service is amazing, I must say.
