Considering I've did transactions with like 5-6 members on here within the last 2 months something obviously went wrong for me to go dark. I did communicate my absence. Like I said, pessimism runs deep in here.

Fault is mine. Clint put it in the PM.

And yes, it is definitely over $300. 😳

Clint,

Yeah, it was a decent pass. Smoked the Ashton last night. It was my first or second Ashton ( can't recall if I had before), but I wasn't as excited about it as I thought I would be. It is a great cigar, don't get me wrong, but I wouldn't jump buy more. The others are resting... Waiting to take those on my trip to Paris end of year.

Did you receive the box today yet?

Unfortunately there have been box passes that have been claimed to be lost or worst yet, outright stolen so the pessimistic view was not totally unwarranted. Although it's a running joke with the Wombat, the fact that it has happened before keeps the older members on their guard when even a hint of a lost / stolen pass gets sniffed.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think anyone thought you ran off with the pass, instead, I think we feared something bad mighta happened to you. Well, okay, 98.2% of us never thought you ran off.... At any rate, glad you're back and looking forward to seeing what your Takes and Puts are.

USPS was a little rough on this box but all looks OK.

None of the 5 or 6 people you have traded with jumped up and did a complete vouch for you either as far as I could tell, and, Stinger had a brain fart...........which muddled the waters a bit.

My advice has nothing to do with YOU at all.

We all know what has happened all too often here and on other sites/forums, and when certain ā€œthingsā€, like say, lack of communication, start popping up, a red flag goes up.

It’s simply the safe play.
Don’t take it personal.

Clint,

Looking at the proposed takes/puts.

I think the LFD and the Stolen Crown are similar.
Davidoff are about the same
And then one of your CCs for the RyJ.

I don’t see the other two CCs in the league of the Opus or the BTL.
