You said:
"Many of our vendors offer the cigar pen kits at or very close to this "sale" price regularly. "
That is right, Tony, and that is something that has often made me wonder about pen kit marketing.
There is "more to" the Cigar than there is to many other pen kits, and in spite of that the Cigar kits sell for less than many other kits.
I wonder why that is. . Perhaps someone has some insight.
I don't think it could be a "volume sold" issue because, at least on IAP, we don't see many Cigars presented in "Show Off Your Pens".
