Some folks have indicated an interest in doing some cigar trading. I think it's a great idea, let's do it.

So who's in? If you wanna play, reply to this thread.

We'll draw up a list of everyone who's in. Each person sends, say, $15 worth of cigars to the next person on the list. After a bit we'll shuffle the list and do it again.

OK, here's our list so far:

1) BenW
2) wmenorr67
3) ex-ma hole
4) dasmi
5) Headless Thompson Gunner

Anyone else want in?

I mentioned $15 as the value of cigars we should swap. Is this a good value? Should we spend more? Less?

Ex-MA Hole · « **Reply #7 on:** December 18, 2006, 10:16:53 AM »

I think that's a nice number.

Three meh ones or two good ones, or one really good one.

Works for me.

I also think the 15 bones works. As ex-ma hole said, gives a good quality/quantity option to play with.

wmenorr67 · « **Reply #9 on:** December 19, 2006, 12:21:44 AM »

$15 sounds like a good amount also.

Headless Thompson Gunner · « **Reply #10 on:** December 19, 2006, 08:39:26 AM »

Alright, let's do this. I've been stalling fr the past few days, hoping that Waitone and TarpleyG would join us. But they haven't, and I'm getting impatient. grin

Pick $15 worth of cigars and send 'em to the person who comes after you on the list. BenW sends to wmenorr67, wmenorr67 sends to ex-ma hole, and so on. The list is circular, so the last person on the list (me) sends to the first person (BenW).

PM your recipient for his mailing address and drop 'em in the mail. If everything works without a hitch, we should all have some new cigars to enjoy for Christmas. Cool, innit?

I'm in too!

Headless Thompson Gunner · « **Reply #12 on:** December 19, 2006, 09:01:14 AM »

Coolness. Lemme add you to our list.

EDIT: There ya go. I put you at #4 so that the addition of a new name shouldn't muck things up any. Welcome to our little madhouse!

Ex-MA Hole · « **Reply #13 on:** December 19, 2006, 11:15:10 AM »

"wmenorr67 sends to ex-ma hole"

How ironic!

wmenorr67, I do believe that we are all set for this round!

(For the rest of you: Yes, this is an inside joke.)

Catch you later.

Agghhh -- wait -- can we start after Christmas? I'm on leave starting today and nowhere near my humidor until the 26th. I might be able to find a cigar store where I am, but couldn't guarantee quality of their storage facilities. Hate to start off by potentially sending dried out smokes.... sad

Ex-MA Hole · « **Reply #15 on:** December 19, 2006, 02:40:13 PM »

I'm good either way...

RadioFreeSeaLab · « **Reply #16 on:** December 19, 2006, 04:33:32 PM »

Either way is good for me.

wmenorr67 · « **Reply #17 on:** December 19, 2006, 07:17:24 PM »

Ex-ma. I will get some sent out as soon as I can. I need to get some to be able to send some out. I may just have my wife send them from my home in Tulsa since that is where my stash is currently.

Ben · « **Reply #18 on:** December 20, 2006, 05:20:06 AM »

wmenorr67 is cool with me sending him his next week, so as not to throw my usual monkey wrench into the machinery, maybe everyone else just send whenever it works for their recipient??

Headless Thompson Gunner · « **Reply #19 on:** December 21, 2006, 11:38:02 AM »

Even if we all send 'em out today, I doubt anyone would receive them until sometime after Christmas. So don't sweat it if you can't ship until the 26th. It might evenbe a little bit better that way than to have the cigars sitting in the post office dehydrating over the holiday.

Ex-MA Hole · « **Reply #20 on:** January 02, 2007, 06:31:10 AM »

Just a bump...

Mine were sent, received, and smoked...seems like he liked them...anyone else?

RadioFreeSeaLab · « **Reply #21 on:** January 02, 2007, 07:06:51 AM »

Mine went out today.

Ben · « **Reply #22 on:** January 02, 2007, 08:50:32 AM »

Got mine from HTG and had the Montecristo yesterday -- damn fine cigar that went well with a bit of cognac.

Sent wmenorr67 his last week, but no telling when Uncle Sam's mail service will get them to him...

Should take a week and a half to two weeks.

Headless Thompson Gunner · « **Reply #24 on:** January 02, 2007, 07:24:43 PM »

So, what cigars did y'all get? What'd you think after smoking them?

Do y'all wanna trade cigars again, and if so how soon?
