That is not only good to know, but also very unsurprising.

Exactly - I used to work with an Italian and he mentioned that there are cigars in Italy that you cut in the middle and share with someone. This is the first thing I thought about when I saw these in the catalog.

You are getting 20 cigars. However, the way it's bundled is as 10 cigars. These reason this is done is because SCHIP taxes you PER cigar. At 40 cents per cigar, this saves you $4.00 per box.
$4? Wow!


Gene's ideas are only good in his own mind with his crappy cigars and stupid "club".

I can't believe no one has made the obvious joke about a box split.

Today they're being sold in a Mazo of 10 for $29.99. That's not a bad price for "20" cigars.
