Cigar prices reached a top for clients

[Hookmaker]

Noticed a lot of unsold stuff on FOH the last weeks. Everything used to be sold in minutes but now almost every day have from 25-50% unsold for up to 10 hours.
Have prices finally reached a top where people have had enough or is it because customers (mainly US people) are getting increasingly afraid of US customs?

I noticed some stuff this morning again. Was almost tempted! But as you say the risk against this pricing is probably putting some off. There's also the Nudies. Seem to have quite the following already. Load more being caught though according to the crying.

Interestingly the Cohiba and the PCC 30 always seem to go!

Aye. Loads left this morning. FOH prices are pretty good to be fair. Are folks buying more NCs now? I definitely am

I have managed to pick up a few things at 5/6 am GMT which was almost unheard of a while ago. Although I smoke a lot of HUHC an they are still semi reasonable price wise

[Emaresee]

havent bought in 2 years. have been overseas with good intent, but seen little of worth or value.
But then I seem to be smoking once in a blue moon...

Lost the love a little bit with all the obvious gouging from Habanos SA.

Just checked last nights offerings at 4.40pm uk time the following afternoon and only 3/11 of the offerings had sold out. Clearly the prices are starting to have an impact

Noticed the same this morning. Real shift over the past week or so.

Yeah - Rob’s getting backed into a bad spot - when his US customers are gone it’s done 😎

On another note I simply don’t understand why he keep up with this “only 1 box per client” bullshit, - sell the crap to whomever wants 5 boxes.

There’s money to be made on shipping charges.

There was a 3 box deal on rass! The limits have all but gone.

He mentioned they sell more Nudies than Monte 4 now. But I don't know how much of that is down to unavailability of the latter.

We don't know the volumes of the Nudies. Maybe already the profits are surpassing that from Cubans?

And with the JJ house blend, with that familiar wrapper. Probably shifting a lot of what they are producing.

And the range is growing!

WRT Cubans. I might have bought my last box.
