Hey guys, I was stopping by a local cigar shop to pick up some butane for a lighter. It's a small shop that usually doesn't have anything too special. But I layed my eyes on a box of Fuente Between the Lines, I couldn't believe what I was seeing. They were $19.95 a stick, but I had never seen BTL's before and knew I probably never would again so I decided to buy the rest of the box (14) for $240. Anybody had these before? Are they more common than I think?

Unfortunately the only humidor I have on hand is one that I just got in the mail and I'm in the middle of seasoning, so I'm not even sure where to put them right now, they're just sitting in the box that I bought them in, not sure where to put them.

I believe they come out around Christmas time every year. Just depends on how long they last at your shop. I'd throw them in some Tupperware with humidity device for now, don't need to season Tupperware :thumbsup:.

I'll hold on to 'em for you :nodlaugh:

I believe these aren't a common stick to find, but not really the rarest.
Hahaha that's what I figured, I like them as a conservation piece I suppose. Can I put the cigars in the humidor while its being seasoned? I have a dish of water in there now

NO, wait for it, keep them in the baggie from the shop for a couple days, they will be just fine. If the box has no baggie, get a large zip lock baggie to put them in.

Yep! Large ziplock with a Boveda Pack will do just fine.

I bought one this year. $17 is well out of my normal price range, but I've wanted to try one for a while.. It's all about when to smoke this years..
