Talked to a friend at the Toronto LCDH yesterday.  He figures they will have to retail it for around $95 to 110 CAD in order to make it "appealing".  For comparison, a Siglo VI lists at $90CAD which is 20CUC in Cuba.  Or about $26CAD with exchange.  FWIW, he hasn't seen any official pricing on these yet.

90/26 = 3.46 (this multiplier represents the general markup on the CUC price. It accounts for taxes and a profit margin)

So, if he's saying that they'll need to charge in that range here's what we're looking at in terms of what its' CUC price will be.

Let's settle on $105 CAD being the price in Toronto.  105 / 3.46 = 30.34.  So, ~ $30CUC/stick or $750/box.  And I'd say that's conservative at best.

There won't be a price in the UK, instead there will be quick intake of breath followed by deep moment of self reflection and internal scrutiny

I reckon the UK price, using the Siglio VI as a benchmark plus a little for the shiny band and box will be £1300-1400 (US$1625-1750). Ouch, and No.

Especially when a 50 cab of '98 Fundadores is around £1000. Not that I'm getting those either but when comparing there is some serious mark ups going on

[Derboesekoenig]

I'll split the difference between the SigVI and the Espl. 532 CUC. So....$1000USD

I'll stick to 5.40 cuc RAAS regardless of what these will potentially cost.

I wonder why its only in boxes of 25. seems out of place for LCDH product. And it doesn't help that's its cohibas!

[JamesKPolkEsq]

Keep buying them! You are keeping PL alive! 

[nKostyan]

Looks like the HSA has a problem with the boxes. In bundles should be cheaper

[Fuzz]

USD1200

[Tollickd]

I say about 750 per box! I like the idea but wish they did them in 10s as it would have been easier for a lot more people to buy a box!

With those Behike style boxes they are going to run over $1000 USD if they could be found. John

If that's correct worldwide price should be about 10% less than CAN, or about $675 which would be less than Siglo VI. I wouldn't consider CUC price as there's no direct relationship between CUC and worldwide price. 

I'd say with that packaging and the similar amount of tobacco the price will be very close to Siglo VI or maybe even a bit more.
