In Cape Coral, where my parents live, about 2 hours south of Tampa. They still have 1/2 a box, as i bought all i could afford :/
Still, they are beautiful. I asked they guy what gives, and he said that is what he sold them for. They were the same price as much of his other Fuente stuff, but he knew what he had. He knew they only came once a year...

I'm totally stocked up (IE, Out of money), but i just heard a rumor that there is an anejo boxed set, featuring a cutter, 4 cigars, and some other stuff for $42.00 at the Tobacco Depot in Plant City, Florida. One of my friends frequents there. Might be worth looking into if you live in the area...

OK, now we have the MSRP. What are prices out in the real world? What should I expect for a good price. I was doing some more looking and I found numerous sticks over $25 each.
MSRP hasn't gone up since then. Fuente doesn't raise prices too often. When they raised them in 2007, it was the first time in several years.

Not really. A BOTL here took care of me on 50's. I was able to get a box of 46's. I'm completely out of room now though.

You poor thing!
I've been using what used to be my mostly empty quarantine desktop as overflow and it'll be full when my 50's come in the mail in a week.5 or so. I refuse to go beyond the vinotemp for now. I did play a mad game of tetris yesterday.
I bought from TS, and got a few limit two here and there (well, I got them once and so did my wife since it's by her work). Then I talked my way into buying a few at the place that was only selling to regulars because I was there again this week. It ends up, without really trying too hard, I probably bought half of what I bought last year, which is still more than I intended.
