I'd love to do that, but this FDA nonsense has me stocking up massively now, because I just know that 2+ years from now, when the FDA has ignored 5,000 applications and only approved a few of them (as they've done with cigarette applications for years now!), and they or Congress have cranked up taxes/fees tremendously, your buying choices will be either:
1. Pre-2007 cigars at ludicrous prices, or...
2. Maybe 1-3 blends of post-2007 cigars, also at ludicrous prices.
So, "collecting" a whole lot right now, while variety is huge and prices are very low, is unfortunately a great idea. Thanks, government!
Years from now, we'll look back on today and think, "Man, those were the GOLDEN DAYS! There were hundreds of blends and they were all DIRT CHEAP! I really, really wish I'd bought a schittload more back then!"
So, you may want to make the most of these golden days, while they last, and do some long-term aging. They won't be any chance to go back, later.
