I just need some of your aged cigars for my retirement in June. LOL

I've been gone a long time. I cant even begin to remember how many trades I did here at CBID. I received so many wonderful cigars and met (many in person) so many great BOTL's. My secretary probably used to think I was involved in some sort of illegal package sending network as I would get multiple packages many days. It's been too long.

With that being said, I'm kind of in the mood to swap some cardboard filled with tobacco leaves. Problem is, I dont have anything new and quite frankly, I dont even know what is out there any more. I used to be a Tat whore with a heavy side of Liga and Fuente. Mix in some Cubans and I was in heaven.

I've looked through my remaining stash and determined it's probably time to let some others try some of my hoarded stash. I've still got most of my cabinet full but it is mostly stuff I never wanted to smoke because I would never find them again. I dont even remember half the stuff I have any more but a quick inventory has unopened boxes of many smokes that I dont think are around much any more...

Original Feral, 9 and 52 Pigs
Original Rats
Original Regios and Noella Reserva
Oliva Maddie V's from 08, 09, 10
Old Fuentes - WOAM, BTL, original 858 SGs, etc
That damn cab of Westies I'm afraid to open
Saw a couple 07 Gold Medals
Half a box of red cloth Olivas
Might have seen some Cohetes
Plus many misc cigars that I dont even remember the names of most but I could probably figure out...

I assume that alot of these are past their prime. I know that cigars have their windows of "optimum smoking" and I couldn't tell you what those might be.



With all that said, this isn't some "brag list" or "hey look at me" thread. I'm looking to trade a few fivers in hopes of maybe getting a few newer cigars to try. I'm not on the mailing lists any more. I dont keep up with new releases. And I dont want to work that hard trying to figure out what the hell I might like.


If anyone is interested in a trade, hit me up. I'm up for probably 5 different trades. Just a 5-er. Not a cbid fiver. I'm not trying to one up anyone. You will get some old stuff. I will get some newer stuff. Like I said, I prefer Tats, Fuente, Liga Privada, Cubans, and higher end stuff. There was some LP9 Tubo I was wanting a while back. You will get the same in return although they will be older and most likely unavailable for sale anywhere else. IF there is something specific you are looking for, I'll try to oblige. As for me, I'll leave it up to you.

My only rules are to not be a douche, dont send me RP, gurkha, or the like.


Anyone up for a trade? IF not, I'll just keep smoking this yellow banded dirty rat (old liga bands seem to turn yellowish) I grabbed while rummaging around. Still tastes pretty good to me but I'm a fog 🌫 now so who knows what my opinion is worth [frypan]

TJ I guess I have probably smoked more Westies than anyone. It was my favorite cigar of all-time and I went through several cabs and even did a few splits on cabs. I found another 20 of them last year and they are definitely past their prime now. They are still enjoyable but not mind-blowing anymore. I would suggest smoking or trading them soon.

Good to see you back posting. I've been gone from here a while myself.

Sorry for the delay. This stupid thing called life again. Been out of town for a graduation among other things. I'll respond to PM's tonite and I plan on getting a few if not all of the packages out tomorrow and Tuesday.

And to the old farts posting on my thread, I MISS YOU BUTTHEADS!

Tuck, lemme know when. I might have to fly up there. I'll at least send a package. Anyone have Tuck's addy? MY database is gone....

OK, got 6 trades all picked out and bagged up but I don't have any boxes. I'll get up to the post office tomorrow and get them sent out.

I got a couple of boxes in today but I haven't looked at them yet. Look forward to checking them out in a bit.

I'll post tracking #'s tomorrow.

I hate the post office.

I haven't used my usps.com account in like 7 years. I tried to log in. Couldn't remember my password. Tried to get them to send me a new one. It asked security questions. One was "what is your favorite food?" I have no idea what I typed for an answer 10+ years ago for that question. So, it wont give me a new password.

I tried to make a new account. It says I already have an account and need to use that one. I swear I am going to kill someone.

Finally, today, I remember an old email account so I finally create a new account. I type in all 7 trade addresses into a batch shipment. I click to select package type and it gives me an error. It erased all 7 addresses I just typed.

I tried again using just one address. And again and again. It wouldn't work.

I called the 800 number and they told me there is some sort of technical issue with their phones and to call back later.


I have all 7 trades boxed and ready to ship. I am sorry they haven't shipped but I've been trying for several days to get this to work. If I cant get this figured out tomorrow, I'll go up to the post office Saturday and stand in line and make them type all the **** in on their own. Sorry for the delay.

TJ, I’m with Al (Delta): no hurry & no worry. But maybe start a pic post of what you’ve received? Then we can also piggy-back on it with your hits!

HOLY COW! What's up Dudewan? I wish I had my old list of cigar trades. We did some massive volleys. Are you the one that sent me the full box of LP9? I still have it. Unopened. Crap. If it wasn't you, I gotta think who it was....
