22=near 20 in my mind. I think it went down to 21.70 before I posted. The bottom price will fluctuate too.

Just bought another 10 pack of the 50's for $22.00 even (shipped). Last night when I was putting my 50 extras in my ammodor, I thought to myself that I need to regular 50's to fill the bare space on the tray at the other end. They should fit perfectly.

Catching up to you Jared.........

Yes and I am currently waiting on a decent resolution. There customer service is not what I expected as others describe. I am still giving them benefit of the doubt.

Jared, I got a response out of CI.

I had asked them how long before they get some more in.

"It's really hard to say, we have many orders that have yet to be filled by our supplier. Boxes of 50-xtra and 54 are on our docks now and should be in early next week. What specific size were you looking for?"

Get on the phone and get them 50 extras or 54's heading your way buddy.

I technically won 50's but I like the bigger vitolas better and they said they will substitute.
Thanks Josh

I had the 54 last night. I enjoyed it. Good smoke. Had a tight draw, it seemed in the start and end.

Did you try cutting a little more off from the cap area to see if that helped?

I didn't have any draw issues with mine at all..........
