Jojo, I think they're trying to tell you that even 10 people in a pass is alot. For example, the last time I saw our box was at least 3 months ago (out of 9 members). That means by the time you send it out the first time (say, you're the first to have it and mail it out), it'll take at the very least a couple months before YOU will see it again. I don't know about you but that means in a year you may or may not see it 3-4 times. However, with say 5-7 members, you get the box more often. As far as puts, we generally limit the puts and takes to 4 and 4. That is if you take 4, you replace 4, if you take 3 you replace 3. We also have "freebie bags", bags labeled A through F, that each member has the option (if they have alot of one particular brand they might like to share) to fill if they like. Passess work great if you all put in QUALITY smokes, plus you get to try alot of different cigars....cheers......Brent
