I made them an offer of two 40's of OE800 and a bag of Doritos for some Opus X's.

SteveR sent me an email back telling me that if I wanted some Arganese, then maybe he could do something with that offer.

If they don't have it on Cbid, I look at what it normally sells for on CI and start my bid at around 60-65% of that. I think I usually end up paying around 80% of what CI is asking on the "normal" site.

You need to be a bit careful about that though.
I don't really know why, but different cigar vendors will have wildly different prices on various blends.

For example, Atlantic has some of the best deals on JdN Antanos. The same cigar at CI is damn near 50% more expensive (I think I got a box of Consul for about $65 vs. $95 at CI).

But then compare Padron prices, and CI has it all over Atlantic (well when they have them in stock that is).
