I understand but I'm more of the "smoke better - smoke less" mindset. I'd rather spend more on better cigars and enjoy them less often.

Just my and worth as much.

I agree, Peter

However, I've found that the smaller Padron 1964's (Principe, Superior) can be had for 7 to 8 bucks a pop. The bigger rg's seem to go for double or triple that amount for some reason.

yeah....same here Peter, maybe that choice has to do with getting older....everything seems to fall into the "quality over quantity" category

and yes Padron did raise their prices just a bit......not having raised them much in the past unlike other cigar companies

I follow the same mindset, if I know the stick is worth $20 -- I'll pay it. If I'm at a B&M and I see a Davidoff for $45 and I look it up on a cigar shop online and it's only $15.. I just keep browsing. I'd rather buy a single for $15 and wait a week for it to show up rather than pay an absurd mark-up. I like to support my local tobacconist -- but sometimes they make it hard :-D
