For the most part they tend to be vastly overpriced for the stick they are. For example, the Cellar Reserve isn't a bad stick, but for 1/3 the price I can pick up a Perdomo Lot 23 with the same exact flavors and just as good(if not better) construction. If the Cellar Reserve was only a buck or two more than a Lot 23 I could justify grabbing one every now and then for a change of pace, but I'm not going to pay $12 for something I can get for $4
Also, I'm not a fan of their advertising practices, but you can PM me if you want to know about that.
