dysfunctional Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 Dunno if I should post this here but I heard from a reliable source that Habanos S.A will be doing a price increase (again) and PCC will issue letters to disributors to inform them of this... increase is in the 10 to 20 percent range....:-( This should take place in March if sources are correct..... If this is the case its time to STOCK UP !!!!! prez....heard anything on this ?? Any bulk discounts ;-)
Tampa1257 Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 You might be talking about the recent announcement out of Spain and the new laws concerning Tobacco. This is in my opinion a way for the Spanish retailers gouging the cigar smokers because they are cut off from avoiding the extra high tariffs. I have not heard of any across the board price increases from Habanos S.A. While I would not be surprised to see a modest price increase, since the cost of day in and day out living personal items has increased by nearly 30-40% during the past year in Cuba, but historically, the increases on the worldwide market have been closer to 5% range when they have happened. Rob, please check into any price increases while you are in Cuba please.

Magnitude of the increase proposed is 5% to 9% on different cigars. Some good news however is that we are receiving a shipment of vintage stock next week. Some very nice stuff. First offer will go to FOH forum zealots ;-)
TR Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 mmmmm aged stock...is it going on the aged list?

The email that I received was Spanish in origin as well. It did not sound as if the price increases would be huge, but I would not be surprised to them in the 10% range. Spain had a similar increase this past summer that resulted in prices being 5% to 8% higher than before. And that is from a "trade free" distributor. Can't imagine the increase if the taxes and tarriffs have also increased.:-( :-( On the subject of vintage stock......yummmmmmmm!

alexgtp Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 I received the same e-mail notifying me of an increase from that area also. Hmm...interesting.,
Cartierusm Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 There will always be price increases, just the nature of things.

habanohal Posted February 22, 2006 Posted February 22, 2006 Even if prices are raised AGAIN, I think most of us will still keep buying them. It will be just cutting back. Like cutting out the kids dinner, water down the toothpaste, along with the ketchup, and things of that nature ;-) But if you are like I am, you can always find a way to justify spending a little more for what we enjoy in life.

idesign Posted February 22, 2006 Posted February 22, 2006 Maybe I can sell my fridge for cigar money.....afterall, if they keep raising prices, I won't be able to afford food.
