So I walked into my favorite B&M today and they had just gotten there holiday shipment from Fuente and I was able to pick 10 Anejo #77 sharks, 3 #50's, and 4 in between the lines, and the prices where at MSRP with is hard to find on anejo. I am so excited to get a hold of some sharks and the in between the lines.

Very nice. Wish my shop got sharks. The owner doesn't even put them out if he gets any, they go into his personal storage.

When my b&m gets them in they're pretty close to MSRP but then you have to pay all the taxes on top of that.

yeah I got the sharks for 11.50 a stick plus sales tax. The in between the lines cost a bit more though 17.50 a stick.

Nice Score! I told myself I would not do the Anejo search this year but the more posts like this one I read the more I find myself wanting to race to some of the locals to see if they got in any Sharks or 55s.

Nice haul. Be thankful they let you buy more than two of each.

I haven't had the 55's yet, but the 77's I've smoked were WAY better than the 48's. I guess all anejos are not created equal.

I have gotten to know the owner and he is very cool like that with his regulars even if you have not been into the store in months, which was my case today. I did not really have the money to pick up the sharks but I had to just do it.

EDIT: nice pick up and enjoy!
Its kind of funny that being "new" here is almost measured in hours.
I wouldn't worry too much - I agree he probably didn't mean anything by it.
In approximately 72 hours and 10 more posts you won't be the fng...
And besides, this place is way too much fun to worry about something like that brother.

At least you guys have B&M's that carry nice Fuente sticks. I can't even tell you where the closest B&M to me is that would sell the top notch Fuente stuff.

If you would like I could go by tomorrow and see if they still have some of the 50's and get you some they were 10.00 each plus tax. I know the rest of the sharks were spoken for.

That looks like a pretty good price on the 50's right?

Corona should be getting them in soon as they're close to Carlito, who is great about not minding them charging 25 bucks a stick.
:-)
He probably doesn't notice when he stops by a couple times a year as he's in a rush to get to the theme parks like Seaworld, which is where the Sharks were named in the first place.
