Anybody see the auction for the Coffin Boxes at $15.00 each. Good grief you can buy them at their other site for 13.99 each.

You are obviously missing the bidder's point. Sure they are paying $15 for a $13.99 retail stick, but they are going to make up the difference by buying in volume!

I have some Tamborils, Espinosas, Santanas and other crap I would like to sell them for a real deal - say ~$5.00 per stick minimum purchase of 20. I would even mix and match for them. Shipping would cost $1 per stick, insurance $10, delivery confirmation $10, packaging $20, curing time in my humidors $25, communications costs $50. All in all, I think my deal blows the CAO deal they are getting to hell and back.

I had the same thought. I just couldn't bring myself to try. How stupid would I look being the guy paying $20 for one of them?

I can get them for $12 I can also get the Oliva 'O' Orion Torpedo for $6.75 a stick, not the $9 that they are going for here.

someone, name not mentioned, had them for $89.00 for a box of 10. I bought a box at auction here for 86.00 two months ago.
