Opus X ... Am I Missing Something

Ol' Times Cigars · 11-22-2010, 10:45 AM

Its a case of different smokes for different folks. Plenty of our customers love the Opus line but over the years they have become more available, atleast in our area. As they have become more available I have heard more and more people turn away from them. A lot of say they just don't do it for them anymore and that they feel like they have changed over the years. Then again more cigars have come out that have been receiving great ratings and peoples tastes change so the Opus doesn't seem as popular as it used to be. I used to sell out in about a week or two and now I have about 15 boxes in stock, with about 5 left over from the last shipment.

I would say if you haven't tried one and you get the chance then try one, you may miss out on something you like. Just don't pay more than $20 for one. If you don't like it atleast you tried one and found out.

Funny that Ol Times should reply, they are the only store in my area I have ever seen carry Opus at msrp and never gouge the customer.

They are the store I was referring to.

Same here. When we didn't have them in, I turned ALOT of people onto Pepins and LFD's and most never cared to go back to Opus.

I've been disappointed more times than not with Opus. I've had a dozen or so that were older than 5 years and only a couple were really good. Opus has never been on my "to get" list.

I used to hate them. Had one this summer and it was a religious experience. That means I liked it.

Pretty much sums up my experiences too, Greg....too many duds to justfy the dough, but I must admit to a couple great ones mixed in along the way.
