Welcome to Cigar Geeks! I wouldn't worry about buying boxes, even the $50 variety, unless you find something you really like. In the 10 years or so that I've been an avid cigar smoker, I've probably bought less than 20 true boxes, and maybe that many full bundles. All my other purchases have been samplers or 5-packs. I've found my likes and tastes change, and smaller quantities of a larger variety allow me to smoke whatever my little heart desires at any given moment. Enjoy the journey!
