[QUOTE="nismo270r, post: 458083, member: 1658"] Most of this harder to find stuff (Sobranie, Esoterica, etc) shows up at retailers in batches around the same time frame. When you see it come back into stock at one place, many times other retailers are also getting shipments as well. I think the others often sell out ridiculously fast because they're not charging double what the normal price is even if they limit it to 1 tin per person. I know a couple places that got Sobranie in last week that were still priced around 11 bucks a tin. SP had it in (at least for a minute or so) a little over a week ago and it was $10.87/tin. It seems pretty clear that P&C jacks up the prices on hard to find stuff and it will still sell it all day long at that price. Like the Esoterica 8oz bags all SHOULD sell at the same price, but why are the not so popular blends $34.99 while Stonehaven and Penzance are $49.99? Because people are still willing to pay them for it. Sad thing is, $34.99 is STILL overpriced...SP had Kingsbridge for $25.95 a bag not long ago. I understand some price differences, but either SP is not making any money or... It's their business and they're not committing any crimes pricing their product as they see fit. If you look at it from a business standpoint, of course you want to make a bigger profit. Doing it in this manner though, runs the risk of pissing off the consumer. Consumers have the choice on where to do business and many choose to do it elsewhere. And of course CHEERS Brewdude! :cheers: [/QUOTE]
