I'm travelling for business and just picked up some smokes. Can't wait to try'em out!!
2 VSG Robusto (12.95 each)
2 Bucanero Maduro Belicoso (11.05 each)
1 Bucanero Especial (10.55)
How bad did I get hosed, I don't really care because I wanted to try them, just wondering? These are after taxes prices...

Colorado, not horrible taxes, but not great by any means! I just wanted to try them sooooo... The shop also had a plethora of hemingways, don carlos, and other super premiums.

where you at, Madde? ... I've bought Bucanero's twice this year, once in New England, once in the Rockies ... NE prices were more in line with what you say (a little higher), the others were as CW mentions

Better prices there, particularly, I think, for the Bucanero ... the NE prices I paid were about 10-15% more than what you mentioned, and in Utah, about 25-30% more ... here in CA, they have no distribution and they cannot be found at ANY price ...

The VSG's go for about $9.50 for the smaller sizes a little more for Beli and Sorcerer from one of my local shops here in So Cal.Lots more though in other shops around here.Was feeling generous one night and paid like $18 for a Sorcerer at one shop I believe my other shop is $12. I've never even seen a Bucanero.

Dr if you have an online source it would be mucho appreciated.TIA

JJ they don't sell online. Hit their webpage. Cigar name,the word cigars and add the dot com. Somebody(I can't remember who right now)said that they've been spotted, and Trish from customer service even noted that they're looking into this and other Premiums.
