The B&M I work at won't start charging more until they are paying more. Some companies raised the price before SCHIP officially hit and some will start now. Some companies aren't raising prices at all like Pete Johnson. I just don't know all the ones that aren't because we have yet to see if they're going to make good on their promises. All I know is the once $17lb of RYO Cig tobacco is now $42 YIKES!

OK, i just called the assholes as the Tinderbox in Easton in Colubmus, Ohio.

The price they have on the Ambos Mundos robustos is $7.95.

I thought these were a value cigar?!?!

Good news is the toro/cg size is "only" a $1 more.

WTF?!?!

Arseholes!!!! Never going back in there again

I am very lucky, the shop I deal with, over the phone because they are several states away, won't raise prices till they sell you new stock that has been taxed. I have never even been to the shop but they get about 99% of my business when I buy stuff to put in my home humidor because of their prices and the fair way that they deal with me.

$7.95 for a cigar that should sell in Ohio for around $6.00 max with local OTP upsets me. I did not raise my prices and will not this year at all. The retailers should not be on my product. Not a fan of raising across the board when they are not being charged more. No worries brother I got this handled.

I like a manufacturer that listens to the customers, and does something about it!! Thank You so much.

I was under the impression that some places had already raised their prices a year ago in anticipation of this tax, I know JR here said they had already. The other small B&M around my house remains to be seen.

Pete's gonna bring the pain! Sweet.

I haven't checked my local here in Dayton yet, but they carry some of the Tat line. If I see they've raised their prices, I'll give them a piece of my mind.
