Rich's acquisitions

[Rich B]

Back from my week in London to a pleasant surprise in the post and raised eyebrows from my wife.



Seems I am becoming quite the fan of an Upmann of late. Mar 19 box code, so they need a rest for a little while.

I am not that well travelled to comment, other than the shop at Dubai is always very well stocked, they are helpful when you email and call beforehand. They are a little pricer than a few years ago, but whenever I know someone is flying to or through Dubai, I always send an order!

They work out at around c.50% of what costs are over here. I paid ?588 for the two boxes he bought me.

Thanks for the reply mate. Is there much variation in duty free prices around the world?

Their customer service email is really good, they?ll let you know batches and stock of specific requests and reserve boxes if you ask. Prices were very good from what I remember

A friend was out in Dubai last week so I asked them to pick me a couple of boxes up in Duty Free on their way home.

I don’t like the DU auctions, they’re all favored for the US. they end in the middle of the f... night for us Europeans

The timings are not ideal, same as the 24:24 stuff too. For these I just popped the bid in that I felt I was comfortable with and got a nice surprise when I checked the next morning.

No extra charge for shipping, which I was pleasantly surprised about. I bought these second time round after they were re-listed. Someone accidentally bid $8,600 first time round!

Good to know.

$8600? Hahahaha!
