Just a word of advice to all traders. If you are going to send both naked gars and tubos keep them separate. The tubes tends to rub on the naked ones and tears up the wrapper. I either enclose mine with cello'd gars and wrap it tight or wrap the tubo in bubbles.

Just trying to save any of y'all a little grief or disappointment.

Hope this isn't the result of a bad experience - I thought this was a no-brainer! IMO, most packages I see aren't packaged carefully enough (I know I'm to blame also...). Nothin' worse than getting some great sticks from a bro only to find a cracked wrapper - you don't want to be a jerk and bitch at the person, but crap - your smoke is ruined! : (

Good advice.

Tony helped me with ziploc info, now all my nekked ones go with their own baggie.

It is not intentional. Some folks just don't realize how much those gars move around in transit. The worst I had was a package of 5 naked ones that were put in a baggie full of air and absolutely no packing. Only one was smokeable.

Good advise. I know I've done that in the past and never thought twice about it. I won't do it in the future. Thanks bassdude.

I sent outmy trade recently to goody and just packaged the gigars in bags (without even putting them in peanuts), but there wasn't much room left....I will package them better next time thanks for the advice.

Package arrived intact, (nice selection BTW) however shortly thereafter contents were destoyed by several small fires.

The package i sent out was sooo full with stuff that I could barely fit a couple of peanuts in. I hope it survives

There were a few tubos in the cigars I sent to Iraq. Dang! I didn't think of this. I did pack carefully though, with peanuts & newspaper. I also wrapped 5 or 6 five packs, at a time, together with packing tape so they wouldn't shift too much. Maybe it will be ok.

trust me - any condition those arrive in are well worth it. Considering what they have available to them there. even a Sad stick is a great stick over there - imho

If that was me, send me an email and I will replace them.

I know I did that just recently.
