No, they are in U.S. dollars converted from Euros; the prices I have quoted are correct. As far as getting them to ship to you, that really doesn't have anything to do with the price.

I'll be the minority opinion and say I didn't think very much of the one I had. But, then again, I can't really form a valid opinion after one. I heard they were released again this year in the same quantities as in '07, can anyone confirm?

$812 in Havana and around $1300 at some LCDH is what I have read. I know one vendor has them pegged at ~1,450. Amazing the variations in price, and yet all will be sold I'm sure within a month or two...

Well I think the Humidor/books are working, specifically because they are more limited and directed at collectors. I wouldn't be so sure about the REs and ELs, however. Although they are expanding the RE lineup every year, you can still readily find just about every RE if you look hard enough...

No, not really :laugh:

The ER 17 was better, but not sure if it is 2x the price better. Amazing color and nose to it though, unlike any other bourbon I have had.

I think you are right. When the regionals first starting coming out, I wanted all of them that I could afford. I just kept thinking, "what if they aren't available again?" That was before the whole re-release bullshit that has been occurring. Once I started tasting them, I was disappointed...

Well, I might just have to change my list after tonight then :cool:

I don't have much experience yet with high-end bourbon, but so far I would have to give the nod to Eagle Rare 10 followed by the Four Roses Single Barrel. The 4R Small Batch is also very good and I just got a bottle of the Eagle Rare 17 to try.

I've had a handful of them, the last being about two months ago. Decent cigars, not worth the price though. I didn't get much of the woodiness that is characteristic of the Punch profile, so who knows how they will turn out down the road.

Sorry to hear Jon. Keep your head up though as everything usually works at for the better :thumbs:

You are going at a great time because, as you said, the exchange rate is pretty favorable right now. Definitely check out Desmond and also the Dunhill store; they may still have some '70s Partagas Lusitania 109s left :thumbs:

Happy B-day Josh, enjoy your day!

:laugh: Now you are making me laugh. Of course you didn't use those words, if you did I would've quoted you. You obviously implied it by bringing them up in the first place; don't be naive. Your continued "spinning" of the issue is what is truly "ignorant and wrongheaded." The issue is not...

John, the issue was not me believing that this had happened; the issue was bringing other people into a dispute between Wilkey and CC. There was no reason to bring other people into the situation, unless they did so themselves. The only reason it was done was to start more drama and that is...

What's tactless is to bring up other people in a problem not involving them to begin with and then not expect them to have something to say.

Do you know the difference between contributing to a community and only coming around to start shi*t? Let us know when you have something constructive to add to CP rather than only stopping by to create or participate in drama, ok? Can you do that? All you ever do is blast other people when...

You won't get any respect from me by telling me to STFU or keep my mouth shut, nor by talking down to me. My statement wasn't aimed at you, but rather to see if anyone else wanted to make their problems known. Keep talking down to me, as that shows more about your character than mine.

I know who one was (a very good friend), not the other 3. If it was such a big deal to bring other people into it, then maybe they should speak up. Don't tell me to STFU or keep my mouth shut. I'm not a f*cking kid or someone you can talk down to. If I wanted to call you a liar, I would.

Still waiting on the 4 other "phantom" members who have been wronged by Wilkey to show up.
