I just came into a little money and want to get 2-4 boxes of cigars, preferably under $80 per box is what I am willing to spend. What should I get?

    The LADC on the box deal....

    I'm thinking a box or two of the house blends, a mazo of Gran Habano Vintage, and possibly try and get a deal on something a little nicer, like 5V CSII or Triple-A?

    There's always the factory seconds as well. Maybe I'll just go wild with those.

    I've had several of the Diesel unlimited, and I think they're slightly better than OK, but that's all.

    I have to agree. It's a good smoke, but I don't see what all the hype is really. Nothing phenomenal.
  • I don't know the box price but you can get 4 5-packs of Padron 3000 for $80.

    I thought about that too, but I'd want to try to get the box.

    I like the 3000 natural. I keep meaning to hunt down a box. It ages well too.

    How does everyone feel about LHC Oscuro Fuerte?

    I posted a mini review on the LHC OF after recently smoked on of the robustos. Basically I thought it started a little slow but came around nicely. I liked them enough to buy a box of the beliscosos.

    One of my favorites and you can find them for very reasonable prices if you look hard or wait for a deal.

    I wasn't a huge fan of it but I think it was more of a problem with it not being aged enough. I only had one and didn't care for it so I can't really elaborate on it much more than that. Sorry!
  • I would go with a box of Bauza Pyramids $100 and a box of Don Tomas Perfecto #1 $60...that will average out to $80 a box...lol. Gives you a small quick smoke and a nice pyramid middle smoke , now you need a Churchill size for a long smoke.... Fuente 858??

    Just goes to show how different tastes can be. Personally, I'd take the Unlimited over all the cigars you listed except the AAA, they would be tied. As you might have guessed, I think the Unlimited is way more than OK...not a world beater of a cigar, but for $3.50 a stick I have a hard time passing them up.

    Jay thats awesome and I totally dig your approach and you can never go wrong with the house labels ... my self I love the Red, Blue, Purple, Brazillian, SunGrown, and the Corojo labels and they are so great for the coin..... as far as the other product that you are looking at may I suggest ....... you have a PM

    I was thinking more along the lines of splurging on a box of Ligero Chisels, but the thought of some Air Benders did cross my mind.

    Since you don't like the diesel unlimited why not just buy me a box then? ;-) It is always hard to decide what to get when buying boxes. I'm sure you will make some good decisions.

    If the Unlimited came in something smaller than a 54, say like 46-50, I'd probably buy a box. They're too big most of the time.

    Absolutely love them. When my inventory gets low enough and i have room for a box, this is probably the way I'm going. Great bang for the buck IMHO.
