El Presidente Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 No....I won't be doing it "I got an idea for you. Since right now, certain cigars like Cohiba Robusto, Siglo VI, Lanceros are super high in demand, instead of selling those individually, how about bulk it? For example- when you have Cohiba Siglo VI ready for 24:24, they have to order the following in bulk. Cohiba Siglo VI (box of 25) Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure 2 (box of 25) Romeo y Julieta No 2 (box of 25) This way, the people who REALLY want the Siglo VI, will have to buy the regular production together as well. What do you think of this idea?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post NSXCIGAR Posted December 16, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 16, 2021 Forcing someone to buy something they don't want in order to get what they do want would certainly reduce demand. He's got that part right. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can give you 5000 sticks of CORO but you need to take 20,000 sticks of R&J Mille Fleurs and 10,000 Regalias as part of the order. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDB Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 It’s used to be pretty normal in some other similar lines of business. Eg fine wine: if you want the top grand cru stuff, buy some of the more ordinary village wine too. Seems to me that’s being phased out though in favour of wider price differentials. I’m happy as things are here for sure… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordAnubis Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 To be fair this is already done by various vendors around the world. Its basically, buy 500 euros of Coro, and buy 500 euros of rubbish with it (noella jars, cazadores, cuaba, mille fuers, and all the other low selling stuff)... great way to sell more volume to the asian market. It happens with every exclusive item known. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
