Out for delivery today, Who wants to send me some Cigars?

Shock and awe.

Come home and to my surprise two boxes, a large box and a SFR….both unexpected.

So my new Arken 6x24x56 scope arrived a day early, won’t bore you with those details but that girl is thicccc…..

And apparently my fellow theatre aficionado decided to kick my wedding tackle and now my special lady friend is going to have ice me for at least a fortnight.

Eleven fine cigars and now I can rest easy the Maduro Hoes Gang is still strong!

Padron 3K maduro

Padron 4K maduro

Padron 5k maduro

Padron 6k maduro EXTRA crispy.

Padilla LFDT Cazadores (NH) like the band

Schizo Toro (NH)

Indian Tobac Maduro (man I haven’t had one of these in YEARS!)

2004 Partagas Full Select (?) I’ve seen these but NH

AVO Maduro haven’t had one of these in years either!

Fuente 858 Rosado?

Fuente 858 SG but this one has a 2000’s label if I’m not mistaken?

One helluva lineup my man…thank you! One of these Padrons is gonna die this week fosho.

Nice smokes drg!

Yea, the Casadores and Schizo are the only ones with less then 10 years age out of the batch. the rest have matured for between 12 and 20 years lol. i think you will find they have all mellowed a bit but time has not hurt them (at least not to me) the AVO, Indian, and Partagas are no longer available although avo and partagas have replaced/renewed those lines with other things since they went dormant. hope you enjoy!

Wonderful hit

Me thinks the "noob" thread needs renaming

That is how this works. Then after you send you will be up.

I just read what drginc sent in his box…he won’t be impressed with anything I can send! But this is for noobs, right?

This nOOb PIB is not about impressing. The idea is to get some trading in for a little fun and to show you are a credible trading partner. The thread has gotten slightly off the nOOb track for the last little while simply because there haven't been a whole lot of nOObs coming along. Some of the members who maybe aren't so nOOb have been helping to keep the thread running, so maybe a few of the smokes seem a bit more boutique(ish) than has been the historical nOOn norm.

This thread started out with the suggestion of sending out a CBid fiver as the offering. That pretty much meant a mix of 5 cigars from a typical night at the auction. Folks sometimes up the offer a bit and throw in a few more cigars, but the base line is a CBid fiver.

When you pick someone up, just say "I got you _____(name of person), send me your address." They should send you their address by private message and the rest is up to you. You can send whatever you want. Once you've completed your sending, post a delivery tracking number. When the package is received it's customary for the receiver to acknowledge by sharing a list of the offering and it's your turn to ask the question, "Who wants to send me some smokes?" and the game moves on.

If you have smokes you would like to share, that's all it takes to jump in.

Right on, thanks Tiver. Maybe drgInc will see my message and I can start having some fun with you guys.

Welcome to the party, Don't worry... We will be gentle! Until you enter the politics thread at least and THAT is when we stop using lube... Noob PIB is a judgment free safe space!

Addy Sent.

This is also a good place to get a few trades under your belt to get ready to step into some of the other PIB's

DrgInc, I got the addy and I need a couple days to get it in the mail.

We send it registered mail for tracking purposes?

Thanks everyone ☀️

I send mine cheapest route possible. Still get a tracker number

I use a USPS Priority Mail Small Flat Rate for the cigars.

Iffin' you set up an account with USPS and use the Enhanced version of Click 'n Ship, your rates will be a little less than walking up to the counter. Insurance, up to $100, is included as well as a tracking number. Additionally, after you print out the label and affix it to the box, you can just drop it into a mailbox / hand it to your mail carrier, instead of waiting in line.

I usually use USPS Priority Mail Small Flat Rate box which includes the box and tracking number.

Usps priority flat rate box or usps ground advantage will give you tracking. Most of us default to the flat rate priority cause you don't have to weigh it but it has gotten more expensive. SFR is like $10 now. 10 cigars weighing 9.6oz in a small 2x6x8 box ground advantage cost me about $6 today. But I already had the box. Flat rate boxes sre free and if it fits it ships.

My BOTLs, thank you all for the excellent information. I appreciate you guys being friendly and helpful to a noob!

Is this why I got banned for 10 years?
