So David emails me and says he remembers reading that I like the Old Henrys, and sends me a link to a nice sale.
I replied that I am not ready to buy a box, but if he sends me a few, and adds a few hitch hikers to even out the fiver, I would send him a nice fiver in return. I stressed that he should NOT go crazy, and just send 5 cigars.
Here is how THAT turned out . . .

John,
You're package will be landing tomorrow. And just so you don't have a cow when you open it, there are 9 cigars inside. I can't send a true fiver because I pay so little for mine. Total package was under $18. Seriously. I added it up because I knew you'd be upset at the number of cigars sent
From: JOHN SPEAR
David,
The cigars arrived earlier today, but I just now got to open them
NO WAY you paid $18 for that bunch. Not even YOU, dpnewell, the man, the myth, the legend, is THAT good.
Looking forward to smoking them. A lot of nh's in that lot.
I'll get your box out on Monday. i think you'll be happy with my selections.
Thanks for the hat too !
John
