    Why HUGE $ increase re: KFC Delfinas???

    When this size first hit, they were a bundle of 18 for like $38 and some change...now it's over EIGHTY!
    I'd been looking forward to trying some. Anyone got the inside scoop?

    I bought some at $11 a fiver a few weeks ago. Last I checked, they were double that....They can keep them for that....

    I stopped by my local B&M a few days ago and the manager was rushing around trying to get her order placed before the prices went up.
    We're going to need a bigger humidor

    It's weird for them to go up that much. It's a decent smoke, but there's not much of a smoke there. It's not much larger than a stick of spaghetti. I thought $11 a fiver was about right on the price for these. They must have switched to rolling them on the thighs of professional virgins or sumptin'. Just don't get it?.....I'll smoke an 8-5-8 for that price...

    I have never seen them that cheap!!! I have alwasy seen them for around 5 dollars a stick which is what I would expect for this stick. I dont think thats bad for a Lancero/Panatela size stick from Drew Estate.

    It cost Swisher a lot to buy a multi-million dollar rolling machine to hand roll these smokes with robotic hands.

    It does not affect me because I don't like them Sam I am. Therefore I don't buy them. But I'm thinking the guy above me is correct its those darn robot rollers
