This brings up a Question? Do you buy smokes that you don't plan on Smoking? Doesn't seem like a good investment to me. I know others have talked about it but every smoke I buy I plan on burning at somepoint. Its like buying a screwdriver if your not going to use it? Why buy it then. Just my

Im with you. I'd personally never buy a cigar that I didn't plan to smoke... Just doesn't make sense to me.

Not usually, but I have a few here and there that just look cool, BTLs, culebras, stuff like that. I see them more as a cool form of art than a cigar.

None of them are very expensive and I want to display them whenever I get a cabinet.

Me and another guy split a box at half price week before last. We paid $212 for the box or 8.48 each. Honestly, they are great cigars but for $17.00? No. It's easily a 10.00 to 11.00 stick but I don't see the value in paying 17 for a 4 5/8 inch stick. I enjoy the Work of Art Maduros better.

I wouldn't consider a consumable an investment anyway. If cigars were an investment, I'd have to say I've lost thousands!
