What's the deal with these high cigar prices?

Like you probably do, I get a lot of cigar catalogs. Sometimes I like to peruse them while I smoke, and the prices in the latest catalog I looked at gave me sticker shock. So I did some number crunching to figure out if cigar prices have really gone up as much as it seemed to me.
The answer is, generally yes but my little study found some interesting trends in cigar prices - those are discussed in this video, along with some suggestions for coping with higher cigar prices.

Msrp has increased significantly, but internet discounts have also increased significantly. Inflation has gone up and demand down. Likely the tail end of the recent “boom”

Good observation - higher prices, but lots of promotional deals

From what ive read and heard too many companies tried their luck at higher end cigars, didnt sell no where near as much as they should and then micallaf black waltz's in with a $10 cigar and smashes all the high scores.. So from what ive heard we will see a higher amount of $10-15 cigars in later 2024

That's a great observation, and I think you nailed it in terms of that price range.

Thanks for your videos, Jim. I’m still fairly new to cigars, and it’s nice to learn from a nearby guy (I’m in Wauwatosa).

Nice! Great example of how smart shopping can still get good deals. And also one of my favorite cigars.

I look for deals on cigar page .

Shh! Don't let that out!

@cigarscigarscigars 2 месяца назад

I don't officially support any particular seller in my videos, but Cigar Page has become my go-to over the past year or so. I still like Fox Cigars as well, but their prices have become such that it makes it difficult - today I just got an offer from them, Brickhouse at $187.50 for box of 25, nearly $8 a stick for Brickhouse?

@@cigarscigarscigars Cigar Page has a secondary business, Field Supply. Sometimes the deals are better there. Often, not so much. I waste too much time watching the Scorcher deals. But, I often get some killer deals.

Very cheap! Compared to the UK 🤯

@cigarscigarscigars 2 месяца назад

Thanks for pointing that out! I should have mentioned in the video, in the US we smokers have been spoiled by lower taxes on cigars and mail/internet sellers. As a result, we enjoy relatively low cigar prices compared to most of the world.
