I'm in shock right now, folks, and all I want to do is release a tirade of vulgarities that would make a rap singer cringe!!! Why?!? 'Cause my trade with Lowman was absolutely unbelievable!!! Hell, after receiving his package, I don't think I can even call it a trade anymore!!! It was more like a top-shelf cigar give-away!!! Truly amazing what this gent put together for a CBid newbie -- and I'm damned impressed and thankful!
Here's what I wrote him -- rather than rewrite it all here. My apologies if it's too long a post ...
---------------
LOWMAN aka Greg,
YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!! TWENTY-TWO CIGARS --
including Cuban sticks, a handful of top-shelfers and
one of my all-time-most-enjoyed cigars, a Fuente 858
Maduro!?! I can't believe this! A 10-gar trade my
ass, Lowman!!! Damn, I should have known better ...
AN OPUS X? An Uppman Millennium? A Torano 1916? A
Torano Exodus '59? A Hoyo de Monterey and Romeo y
Julieta from the big island? A Montecristo Serie V?
The list goes on ... And all I can say at this point is thank you!
Unbelievable!!! Hell, my trade package is a good one
I do believe, but it sure doesn't compare with
yours! Now I know what a CBid welcoming trade is all
about -- thanks to you! And one day soon, I will "pay
it forward" for another newbie -- rest assured!
Oh yeah, and did I say -- THANK YOU!!!
Anyhow, I got to run, but know that I'm mighty damned
thankful, and, even more so, amazed that you managed
to disprove that age-old adage: "You never get
anything for free!" Well done, Lowman!!!
Oh yeah, for the record, I'm not done with this
trade-relationship of ours just yet!?!? Be on the
alert in the coming months my newfound BOTL friend!!!
All the best to you and yours, Greg, and thanks again
for an outstanding "trade"!!!

Lowman, you are THE MAN!!! Thanks again!!! And to the BOTL on CBid -- it sure is great to know you're all out there!!!
Cheers!
