Saw an offer on Opus X from this retailer (www.uptowncigar.com). Seem legit but I thought I'd check. Anyone familiar with them?
Thanks in advance.

If that is legit, it is a good deal. The 3 Opus X cigars would cost that much alone. If I had $75 and room, I'd jump all over that.
There is some good information about them with a google search. They are authorized dealers for a few major brands such as la flor dominica. I have a hard time believing it is a hoax then but it might be a very limited deal. I am considering giving them a call as well.
I never had an Opus X so I thought I would give them a try. Figure the 75 bucks gets me the 3 Opus X and the rest are tossed in for the ride.
Seems like a pretty decent deal.
