  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Why Are These Cigars so Expensive

Because they know there's a number of people that have more money than sense?

I have a sales-rep that markets waders to me. Some of them are *extremely* expensive. The top-end model, I have yet to sell one of, in two years. They're just too spendy.

He, himself, calls them "Waders for the affluent inept." Could just be that those are cigars for people that have to show off what a high-roller they are. That's when you get some of their bands and put them on your $4.00 Maduros. :headroll:

I don't know ... but the gal on the website sure looks like she's been smoking stuff OTHER than tobacco.

Perhaps these are crack cigars ...

While I agree that some expensive cigars are worth the price, these seem outrageous. I mean there are only so many ways to crack an egg, Tobacco is Tobacco and unless they have access to better stuff then the companies that actually have their own farms than I fail to see how these could be worth it.

Because there will always be a market of buyers who equate most expensive with best. After all, that's how you convince people to spend a lot of money for coffee that's passed through a rodent's asshole.

Gonna ask my pal, GodofFire911, to buy a few boxes and pass 'em around...

damn it, I was gonna make a Godoffire911 comment.

Either way all you guys go suck on you dog rockets while i smoke one of these bad boys. And don't make fun of the girl on that site, My dad bought her for me and I've been starving her so I could use her to market the most expensive cigars in the world.
