What do you think about "Expensive Cigars?"

I rarely spend more than $10 on a cigar, There are just so many great cigars for $10 and under. When I do it's almost always a CC, Anejo, Opus or Padron.

It has been touched on but when I think of the little bit I know about all the hard work that it takes from seed to purchase; cigars are pretty under priced as is. That being said the market is what it is and for me at least price will effect what I buy and how much I expect from a cigar. 20$ is about as high as I will go but I have bought some +30$ cigars that I really enjoyed. The problem is I know how much I spent and that effects the experience from the cigar in the thinking that " this should be the best cigar money can buy" sometimes it is and sometimes not. I think it can be a mindset so I'll try doing the same with 3-5$ cigars as well and end up occasionally with the same experience.
