If I could afford 36 boxes of opus x I wouldn't be complaining. However, I like many of you have a limited budget for cigars so when I spend $13 + on a stick, I expect a return on my expenditure. In the case of the two opus x's I've had, the quality of the cigars did not reflect their price. And it is because of that that I will have a hard time spending the money to further explore the line.
