I remember someone else claiming a shortage of Opus X.

I went into my local last night to pick up another Maestro. He had half a box of Opus X Perfexcion (spelling off). I bought one out of habit. It looks like the Reserve D' Cheateau size.

Point is my local usually doesn't hord or store so I'm assuming he got this recently. He wasn't in and won't be back til the weekend, but it may not hurt for others interested to check their locals.

The local shop I frequent got theirs yesterday.

I'm down the road from you cyrann and i haven't heard anything from my guy....i may have to call him....thanks for the heads up...

The shop where i work got them in yesterday, 3 different sizes. Super Beli, power ranger, and the Perfecxion No.5.

I just got word from my local B&M that they now have them in stock, just arrived today. I will go by tomorrow to grab a few.

My three "local" B&M's got 'em in. Looks like 6-7 boxes each. Larger sizes this time...#2, Perfecxion X, POWER RANGER!!!

Since I've never had the pleasure of being able to buy one, what should I expect to pay in a B&M?

Nothing down here yet, just made some calls.

I paid $15 for the Perfecxion X. MSRP is $12. My guy is normally very reasonable as I was paying $12 for Anejo sharks last year while others were $15-$20.

Below is a link to vitolas.net which lists MSRP for all sizes.

For me, about $13-$25. Although, since I am in Wisconsin and the B&M's I go to are in Minnesota, I avoid about 30% of those costs by having them shipped across the river to me.

My B&M just received his 2nd shipment in the last 4 months of 3 sizes the other day. The sizes this time were Perfection X, Belicoso XXX, and Perfection 5

Just grabbed 18 total,Perfecxion X,Robusto,Perfecxion#5,
6 of each.

Thanks for the heads up icall.

Just picked up 2 each of thefollowing: xXx Power Ranger ($11), Petite Lanceros ($10.50), Perfexion X at ($12.50) & #2 at ($14.25). Prices are to give rechtien an idea. Very excited as I have never tried any of those sizes before. Gonna be hard to lay off em!

Feels like Christmas in here today

Got the last two robusto's @ 2Guys Smoke Shop in Nashua. $12.49 each. Of course I can never go in there and not walk out with a Padron 80th Maduro and 40th Maduro......

Just got back from Corona today in Orlando and they had four boxes of them.

How were the prices at Corona?

those are outstanding prices...a super belicoso or Robusto go for $22-$24 around here...

Pretty pricy but I went ahead and got some since I never really had a chance before.

Perfecxion No. 4- $18
Power Ranger- $23
Perfecxion X-$30
Super Belicoso- $23

I may be wrong with some of the sizes but thats what they looked like to me. I think they would be gone by the end of the weekend. The guy told me they just got them in yesterday and alot were already sold.

So... please educate me. Which stick is the "Power Ranger" and why is it called such? Thanks.
