Noob looking to get a toe in the water... I get the basic gist, but wonder if there is a general etiquette to shipping - ziplock, ziplock and boveda? I saw that a herfador package was impressive. Okay.

This thread still trying to stay under $8 msrp? Some of these selections had me scratching the old noggin.

Palama you said check #44 for intro/credibility builder. It didn't appear to have any action in some time.

Hey, we almost got the same name! I'm a kinda noob myself, but I've done my part to scare off a few noobs, so I'll just tell you this, go to the noob trade thread and pick up who ever is next. I don't know who is next, but just send them some smokes. What was told to me when I first started, is send smokes that you enjoy smoking. Don't send dog turds, basically only send stuff you would be happy to get your self. Send a "fiver" (most people don't actually send just five because none of us can count).

Again, I'm trying to actually be helpful, because I'm usually kind of azz hole...but I'm trying. I'm smoking a psd4 now, so that's probably helping me be nice.

Continuing on because BGZ didn't give all the facts ^^^^ see his excuse above.

Anyway, it would appear that Chewmaize is in the hopper. He stated he would pick up Namidio. We haven't heard back yet as to whether that has occurred.

BUT, if Chewmaize did in fact send the cigars to Manidio, then Chewmaize would then put up a list of cigars that interest him. Since Chewmaize didn't read the rules either and posted his list of wants BEFORE he picked up Manidio, some may not know of his list.

Chewmaize's list is:

Gonna throw my simple catalog wish list.

Punch Signature Robusto
Room 101 Daruma Sucio
Nub Cafe
Any Arturo Fuente
CAO Brazilia
Any Montecristo
H. Upmann The Banker
Or, to make it easier, any Sampler. Just curious what would be sent. Makes the experience that much more fun.

Now BLG, you look at Chewmaize's list. The idea behind the whole thing here is trying to satify Chewmaize's desires...in cigars...not his other desires, which will get you kicked off here by Da Queen, who monitors these forums and expecially Chewmaize's post.

The general rule is if you can match about 3 of what he is asking for, you jump in and send what he wants and you have. It is supposed to be between 5 and 7, but some of us, including myself don't always follow the rules, and may send an extra.

Now Chewmaize has made it easy for us. He gave us a list of specific cigars at the start, but then opened it up to most anything by acepting a sampler of anything.

If you want to get involved, say "I'LL DO CHEWMAIZE." You then PM Chewmaize and ask for his mailing address. How you package the cigars is up to you. I usually put in some type of humidifying thing. Not required. Once you have the package in the mail, you get to put up a list of your secret desires...again, keeping it to cigars. and to cigar that are in the $7-8'ish range. If we like your list, one of us will jump on you.

This thread got all jacked up, from what I can see...

Chewmaize is having issues and hasn't sent to namidio.
Charlie bar is MIA and hasn't sent to Gary
Someone was supposed to pick Z up

And nobody confirmed what they received for like 5 or 6 turns.

Is this how threads die?

Yeah, that pretty much sums it up.
I think Charlie is lost. Haven't heard from him in any fashion. I hope he is all right.
To keep this thing rolling, I will pick up Chewmaize.
I got a couple of things he is asking for, plus asking for that sampler makes it wide open for just about anything.
I'll give him an experience.

Chewmaize send me you addy in a PM. I wanna do ya!

And the box is in the mail !

Post number 9505 5111 5699 5093 4756 56

Says you will have them on Monday.

Now for the list. Something totally different. Want to see what you smoke. Think back to the last 5 cigars you smoked. Send me one of each of them. Not smoked of course. Now if you smoked a high-priced one...skip that, and go back one more.

Chazbo is a heavy hitter.

I got the package in the mail today. Nice hit. 8 wonderful looking cigars in all.

3 of them I have had. The Casa Magna (cigar of the year), Saison Churchill, and a Jamie Garcia, which I absolutely love.

The other 5 I never had and look forward to firing one up in the hot tub tonight!

La Capitano
Reckoning (I bid on these once and didn't get them. So I suspect this is the one that gets the hot tub)
Leccia Black
Camacho Ditka Signature (I am starting to like Camacho...someday I might even be able to pronounce it right)
La Aurora ( I have had several La Auroras, Aurorrae ?, but have not had this one)

Thanks, Chazbo. Great being hit by you!
