Sok454 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Was checking another vender and saw that Behike's were back in stock... holy cow. 700 a box for 10 52's??? Are they that in demand/short of supply right now? I was fortunate to get a couple singles at 33/stick 5-6 months ago w a BTO May 13 code on them. Now wondering if I should sell them!

Corylax18 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Very little Cohiba of any size/line have been produced recently. Mostly due to lack of quality wrapper leaf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulPower Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I would sell, 2-4 could buy a box that will give you much more enjoyment. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corylax18 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 We're approaching a slippery slope talking resale prices here. But, in the end, a fair price is whatever someone is willing to pay for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSXCIGAR Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 A box of TEU DIC 10 BHK 52 apparently sold at auction several weeks ago for $940, for what it's worth. Behikes are hard to come by these days. We'll see if the market can bear these prices. My guess is likely it will. Never underestimate the amount of money people are willing to spend on cigars.

El Presidente Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Let's reword the opening. "Behike have gone up near 90% at some online retailers" let's assume a retailer had good supplies but is running down on them. There are no more coming in and demand at prior pricing will see his stocks wiped out shortly. He is simply pricing subject to demand. Unless I am wrong, current online pricing (at some vendors) simply reflect in-store London pricing. There are no new Behike (that I am aware of) currently being produced. There hasn't been for some time, at least none in any quantity. if you are lucky to hold boxes currently and are known on the boards, then you would have little problem offloading them at or near those prices mentioned. Straight "supply and demand". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john007 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I have one left from a BTO 13 box, amazing cigars. My flat out favorite ever!! But will I ever have them again?? Idk at these prices it's not worth it, at the old retail around 330 for 52s yea for special occasions I could do it. One thing that always bothered me was an interview I read or saw somewhere. In the interview the man, I can't remember his name. He is or was a higher up in the Cuban cigar department. Was referring to a conversation he had with I believe Fuente jr. He went on to say that Fuente was going on about how they opus x had the most expensive regular production cigar in the world, and not Cuba. This aperantly sparked the desire for Cuba to take that honor back. While I don't know if this is accurate or not, but I would rather them make the best cigars in the world and price them accordingly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd probably smoke one, get another liking for that unique citrus tang and Cohiba grass and honey and conveniently forget about selling! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westg Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 If you only have a couple of singles ...just smoke them and enjoy them.....smoke one today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fugu Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Concur with John - smoke them and be happy that you were not forced to buy at those ridiculously inflated prices. As Rob sais - this BHK-pricing now is rather "vintage" or HTF market pricing. New production, once we'll see it again, will be rather back to normal I guess (or what is called "normal" with Behike... haha) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"$300 a box, what a bargain! I remember in 2016 when they hit $700 a box" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tengel78 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I'd like to try one of these, but it's hard to justify when you can buy a box of something else for the price of 2-3 of these. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
