richokeeffe ... uh, that was only 44 ... LOL !!!
Oh and don't forget the 2 humidors. One was a 'birds-eye maple' veneer and the other a 'cherry wood' veneer. Nothing over 'over-the-top' ... just a couple of 35-50 ct humidors to get him started.
One was filled ... the other for that box of cigars he needed a humidor to put them in (origianl thread by Stephen).
Being the 'severe' newcomer to cigars that his seems to be ... I sent him some 'low-end' all the way to some 'top-shelf' cigars so that he can experience a somewhat wide range of taste profiles. Some are just 'yard-gars' (dog rockets?) and some are damn good cigars.
How can I tell that these are 'probably' the first cigars he's ver gotten ???
1) he emailed me asking what a 'snailer' was ...
2) he wanted me to send him pictures of the humidors before he even got them (very excited) ...
3) he asked me how to put water in the humidifiers ...
He has started his journey ...
