Very interesting:

...now let's see what sort of price they put on them.  IMHO that was what prevented their acceptance previously; they priced them in a range where there were lots of other really great and very well known cigars.  If they can return them with a similar blend at a price point that isn't absurd, they could have a winner here.

You are absolutely right on their need to pick the right price point. If the pricing is lower than their previous efforts I would be far more interested.

Once they were being blown out as discontinued smokes, there were some really great deals to be had on them.  I think that's when a lot of people gave them a try and found out they were really good sticks.  I agree with you; assuming the blend doesn't suck, the price point they are introduced at will make or break them, this time around.

Yep I recently bought a couple of bundles when someone   posted he remembered them being good.  I think the price point was somewhere between 2 and 3 bucks.  For that they were a decent smoke for golf and such.  Had a couple yesterday and they were stout enough to survive the rigors of a golf course.
