Came across this this morning

Worth a trip if local to see if they in good condition....the report seemed to say they are looked at after.... However when you look at the humidor the cigars looked dry as hell.

The price of these still astonishes me - estimate £1k - £1.5k plus 25% sales tax plus VAT. So near bottom estimate around £50 per stick or £80 at the top estimate.

Would these be so expensive even if there had been no price hike?

With something like this - how do you know they haven’t sourced a genuine box and put in a stash of fake sticks inside?

I suppose that's the risk taken time without physically examining them.

you could request further photos... eg labels, box stamp, and more of the sticks. Most auction houses will offer up more evidence

£1000 + 25% +(25%x0.20%)

£1300 total.

Its a lot of money for questionable cigars.
