Please support my GoFundMe. The Cause?: MRN is auctioning his cigars

[Puros Y Vino]

Wow. Didn't think this would ever happen.  MRN is auctioning off his cigars.  This should be televised IMO.  If you think the Habanos auctions are nuts, this one should be a record setter.

Can you post a link to the auction?

I wonder if he's keeping all his Trinidad?

I plan to win most of these lots.

Quite a lot of cigars have been sold in previous auctions on that site.

I hope his health is OK and this is just a selling exercise because he seems to sell off collections when that market is overhyped.

If you want a cheap cigar, just get into this auction pdf booklet. 🙂

Anyhow, he's one of the biggest collectors in the world, who with his book initiated most of us to collection and vintage, and has decided to sell all or part of his collection. Will it mean that prices have reached the peak?

Is this really the momentum to sell or to continue buying?

I hope it's not for health reasons as well. Kind of doubt it is.

Since this person is a "phantom", and most do not even know his true identity, how could you know either way? Other than speculate.

What do you mean? He wants to be private but lots of people in the Asian cigar community know him. Heck Dave dude cigars on YouTube went to see him a couple years ago.
