McClelland Sighting

[Monssen13]

Didn’t get to try (wayyy beyond my budget) but my local B&M had these out and I wanted to share. Felt like I saw Bigfoot or Nessie.

What kind of prices were they asking for them?

$100 for the small and $200 for the bigger ones. Is that typical?

Check out Pipestud.com for some of the going rates. What you saw appears to be 30-50% higher than you can find.

Seems very steep.

That’s about double what these get on aftermarket.
They’re good but not that good.

I hope they actually get those bonkers prices because as we all know, tobacco shops ain’t thriving at the moment.

Just before tobaccopipes.com revealed their stock of NOS Captain Black Grape I was offering 40th Anniversary in trade on another forum.

Any idea what these are going for?

Isn't that the collective name for the line since early 2018?

Those prices are high, but considering they've been discontinued for 8+ years, I imagine someone has some dumb money to throw at them. Typically the 100g tins go for $100 - $150 depending on the blend, and $50 - $75 for the 50g tins. At least the last time I looked at secondary markets.

I found a can of Christmas Cheer at my local a couple years ago. I think they wanted 200 for it. I dunno if someone bought it or what but it's no longer there anymore.

Crazy.

Really crazy. Christmas Cheer would come out in the summer and everyone would scoop them up during the IPSD sales in February for less than $15/tin.

Yeah, that doesn't surprise me.

CC is good, but not 200 dollars good.

Yep. I enjoyed McClelland tobaccos, but their sales didn’t take off until the marque was dead. I miss several, but I have found substitutes for all my favorites except Yenidje Highlander.
