The buying frenzy at SP for C&D Carolina Reds had me wondering: what other limited editions are lined up for end of this year?

Another drop of The Haunting from C&D/Warped and then one of their Christmas blends.
No more cringle flake, that's for sure 
Definitely check out the boutiques. I've always missed out on peretti's and the Squire's and I'm hell bent on acquiring both this year haha
Red flake drop doesn't seem to be too hectic. I didn't even have much of an issue on the site right at 6pm tn. Snagged my 8 no problem.

When McClelland releases a 48th Anniversary blend I'll get excited.
Speaking of which, just received it from USPS.
C&D's Halloween/Autumn Blend this year is Warped The Haunting and unfortunately not Warped Scarecrow which ought to be either a regular year round offering or, at a minimum, an annual blend. Peretti will have its annual "Thanksgiving Day" blend soon. It is well worth ordering and while not an everyday smoke it is enjoyable.
While I am an inveterate Virginia and Vaper smoker, I always enjoyed Peterson's annual aromatic Christmas blend and I certainly miss them.
Im befuddled that people feel that a blend that has a release of 20-40,000 2 ounce tins to be a limited edition release.
Come on kids.. 2,500 to 5,000 pounds is not a limited edition release. The expected 2015 germaine tobacco release, that is a limited edition.

Ummm, its released for a limited time. The text book definition of a "limited edition release".
Good advice; that's the way !None that need to be shared with the hundreds of bots and guests constantly perusing this forum

Both good points. Its definitely limited by definition and in practice... but its also an interesting phenomenon happening more and more in our world where limited edition anything gets bought up in large or even majority quantities by scalpers.
So its interesting to ponder how much certain "regular production" blends are vs limiteds in sheer quantity... as well as how much of the limited would actually sell if it were just another blend... maybe it would be the same or less per year than the fact that knowing you only have a few hours/days to make the cut.
Personally when im buying a limited edition I always ere on the side of overbuying it. If it ends up a sunbear or CRF I want that dang dozen cans.. it may need to get me through a few years. And if I'm not as fond of it... well, we see it here all the time.. even if somebody isnt "profiting" off of a limited edition in a monetary sense.. they're always good stock to trade in order to acquire tobaccos you may have otherwise been priced out of and spread the supply around to the people who wouldve normally bought a couple but missed out on buying half a dozen.
What some people forget, limited edition almost meaningless. I think that the Halloween oreo has a limited edition label. But production values might equal a normal quarterly production total for normal oreos.
Some of the Peterson seasonal limited edition pipes hit totals of 150 to 200 each style. That's a true limited edition.
What cornell does is advertising.
Sunbear was 20,000 tins
Christmas cheer was 20,000 going by the advertising photos.
Red flake w perique was either a single run of 20,000 tins or two runs of 20,000 each.
Royal comfort I believe launched with at least 20,000 tins. And unknown 1 pound bags that never sold out at smoking pipes
Who says the definition of limited edition is necessarily by quantity?
If it's not regularly available and is only made in a set amount when it is made, it's inherently limited by definition, especially considering that some that regularly come back (like Sun Bear) are very often different than when it last was available.
I can find no definition of limited anywhere that mentions quantity...
I swear, you people argue over the dumbest stuff, for and with the dumbest reasoning. Tired of all this one-upsmanship, dick-measuring bs, pedantic squabbling and "gotcha" nonsense like a bunch of children trying to prove who is the more genuine/manly/legit whatever.
Yes, quantity can be a way in which something is limited, but it's not a necessary condition nor the only way for something to be limited.
