Cigar.com has them for a good price, just snagged two boxes! (Free shipping as well)

Superiorcigars.com also has them but they are $30 more expensive.

I decided to pass on these as I just don't see what all the hype about the No9 is. Now if they make something with T52 scraps I'm in.

They use some T52 leaf too, but its mainly No. 9.

Smoked one Friday, tasted just like a No. 9 just not as sweet

Tasty little fellas! I just grabbed a tin and I'm very happy with the PF. Pairs perfectly w/ a Gosling's Ginger Beer.

CI has 10-packs for $49.99 for a limited time. Normally I don't pick up 10 of something I've never smoked before, but I said "what the hell, it's the holidays" and ordered one.

CI ?? Must have been for a real limited time, I looked all over their site and can't find them.

Same. Plus, these come in 4 count tins. I highly doubt any company is taking them out of said tins to put them in 10 packs.

While it is possible that the poster made an error in the writing of his post, many manufacturers, Drew Estate included, will package certain cigars into cello mazos, typically 20 or 25 cigars, although I have seen 5s, 10s and even a 6. This can be for the big operations like CI, Famous, JR, etc to further break down into singles, 5'ers, 10's whatever, or, for internal use, events, etc. This allows them to provide a larger quantity of cigars at a lower per unit cost since the packaging isn't included. This doesn't happen with all cigars, there's no set rule for which ones get the mazo treatment.

All that being said, I can't say if the PF's were or were not packaged this way, but I can tell you that some of the stuff manufacturers package into mazos might surprise you.

Oh, and breaking down 4-tins into 5 or 10-packs, actually, I've seen big e-tailers do sillier things.

Probably best to let the poster clarify rather than running amok substituting your assertions for facts.
