I noticed the auction on these are closing tonight. I know of at least three places that sell for less than then what they're going to go for, even with shipping included.

That's why it's good to know prices before you bid. X

I found a site that sells the Mancho for $110 ... but they are on backorder!

dweiss - you didn't do too bad at all! You only paid $8 more ...

You would have paid a heck of a lot more for them, if you were lucky enough to find a box out there in CA at one of your local tobacconists.

There is no such thing as 'overbidding' where the tobacco taxes are slamming folks in the high tax states ... as far as I'm concerned.

I smoked one of these last night. It was a good smoke. I think La Flor Dominica did it first with the Ligero. I'd rather smoke their maddies,or a PAM,Opus or Bucanero.

I haven't been able to find them anywhere near me so far (The Criollos)...Remember what happened to the Oliva O Maduros when they came out?..The bidding went high because they were difficult to find (and a new item)..So what?
It's called Supply VS Demand...It's also called an auction...If someone is willing to pay more than you (regardless if it's more or less retail) then he/she wins the items....That's life
