Which Opus X? - Page 2

lenguamor · 03-12-2012, 02:26 PM

Call Tampa Sweethearts directly. They have various samplers (Lost City, esp.) and they are the most reasonable of all the vendors.

I just bought an xXx Belicosos for $9 (including tax) at my b&m. Their robustos are around the same price.

MSRP on the xXx is 10.25, i would buy all of them if i were you.
The owner made a mistake or he`s discounting Opus, which i`ve never seen.

Or they are fake.

Man, I'd get them online...around $12-14...B&M has them for about the same price too. I would stay away from bid sites on OpusX...they tend to get bid more than their value...try the Power Ranger. If I were you, I'd let it sit...had some outstanding 6-8 year OpusX...as a fresh cigar, I think they're horrible imo...

MrClean · 03-12-2012, 06:46 PM

I really like the one Opus X I had and the Lost City, while pricey was also an outstanding smoke IMO.

With the exception of Tampa Sweethearts, that's a great list of vendors to avoid when looking to purchase Opus Xes.

Offer a bit of constructive help then to us ignorant shoppers. I just used the Google...the same one that if I had not, some snide comment would have undoubtedly hatched.

I think he just did.
A bit edgy but helpful nonetheless.

JenksAnejo · 03-12-2012, 08:49 PM

I have yet to find a good opus vendor outside of deadwood tobacco and oltimescigars. They are currently out of stock however. They charge MSRP on most of their Opus products.

x man · 03-12-2012, 09:43 PM

Can`t go wrong at Sweethearts.

CigarSquid · 03-14-2012, 07:16 AM

WOW.. One day out of here..

Thanks for all the help from everyone! I will continue to research them. I have waited this long, I can wait longer and find a decent price, What I think is decent to pay for some.

Thanks again to all who chimed in.

JenksAnejo · 03-14-2012, 08:02 AM

Gary,

Here is a tin of 3 for $65.

http://pipesandcigars.com/fufuopxci.html

Not exactly sure what the Opus X Rare Estate Reserve Robusto 1992 is however.

I'm sure some of these other guys could let you know the difference.

All tins are marked that way. "Rare Estate Reserve" is just part of the name and 1992 was the first year that Fuente started growing the tobacco that has become the capa leaf on the Opus X. Aside from the cedar wrap on the cigars, they are the same as any other current production Opus X.

Thanks for the info Adam!
