I don't think price should play a factor in a review rating, but my purchase consideration certainly does; whether I get the price from the review or my own research. I think it should be included information in the review.

A consistent rating score irrespective of price allows one to see how a cigar compares head
-head. It would be ideal if price was not revealed to the rater until after reviewing. I think cost can have an effect on the perceptions, both positive and negative.

There is a place for price comparative reviews for example in a "cigars under $5", or other price point breakdowns.
