Hi!
Because I'm going to renovate my apartment and then I'll sell my cigars.
There are 22 cigars in total and I will start selling them.
I will divide 22 cigars into 3 or 4 packs, as all are important to me, so let's see what is offered.
No. 1 in Monte Canario 3 Delicias! One pack 3 cigars 15cm long.

     Think maybe you're running a bit hot on the price point of these.
I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

I used to be a people person, but then people ruined that for me.

Maybe the confusion is the currency exchange rate? There's very little info on this cigar on an internet search, but I did come across a review from 2007 for Monte Canario Double Corona that sold for $8 at a B&M in USA. So what currency are you using to ask 390$ ?  Does that equate to something like $10-15 US? Are you including shipping?

Between this and the other thread started by this user, seems to be trying to scam folks into buying otherwise unknown sticks at a premium.

Dude has 5 posts. This thread trying to sell 3 no-name cigars @ $130ea, and then the other selling 10 no-name sticks @ $160ea.

If you're not a scammer then maybe you got scammed when you bought these if you actually paid that kind of price, and maybe you don't understand the US market.  In the US we can get the highest quality/best name cigars you can think of (OpusX, Davidoff, etc.) in the $20-$30 range.  And the reality is that $20-$30 is a very expensive price in this market for a cigar.

These cigars you're trying to sell have no reputation as being any good, rarity isn't enough, it has to be wanted as well.  Nobody wants to pay an obnoxious price (the price of a box of good cigars here) for a cigar they've never heard of that is most likely mediocre in quality and of unknown condition.  That's why we're laughing at your asking price, or we think you're a scammer, or you're a kid trying to sell your dad's sticks that doesn't understand these kind of nuances about buying and selling.

Hopefully this helps you read the room here.  You aren't going to be selling these at those prices to anyone that knows anything about cigars.

100% this.  The most I've ever seen or paid for a stick in the US at a B&M was in the neighborhood of $60 of some Atabey's. Granted you can probably pay double that for a stick at a casino in Vegas, but that's the tax you pay for buying anything on the Strip.  I can't imagine someone paying over $150/stick unless their net worth is North of $10mil and/or they are trying to show off to friends or whatever.  Even aficionados won't pay the prices you're asking without somehow verifying the pedigree.
