The box hit me this afternoon from lvsmitty. He had warned me in an email that this "KISS" boxpass had grown by quite a lot. Here is the list of what it contained:
1. Cuban Parejo perfecto maddy
2. Maxin’s de Paris omnibus
3. RyJ 1875 bully
4. 5 Vegas corona
5. Royal Jamaica Churchill
6. Indian Tabac classic
7. Carlos Torano robusto
8. Sherpa toro
9. Legends blue
10. Legends red
11. A.F. 858
12. Tierra Del Sol torp maddy
13. Gurkha
14. V. Sinclair Connecticut Yankee Churchill
15. Acid Def Sea
16. Indian Tabac churchill maddy tubo
17. Don Tomas elegantes tubo
18. Industrial Press brick
19. Perdomo 2
20. Morgan Alexander Cigars (MAC) torp
21. Highlander Churchill
22. V Centennial corona
23. Puros Indios special aged piramide
24. Iguana – 3 minis
The cigars were well packed inside 2 plastic containers, one with a humidifying packet.
Obviously this pass has been well cared for, and all the earlier participants are to be commended. But I feel that I should lighten the load in order to get this back to a KISS pass. Most of the people signed up with my promise that this will be super easy: one $3.85 Priority Mail stamp and a USPS video box to send 10-12 sticks, don't have to leave home, yada, yada, yada. The current box took $5.20 for lvsmitty to mail.
So I leave it to the forum to decide: I could slim this box down. I'd send 1/2 of the surplus on to myash (who provided 1/2 the sticks to start this pass). I'd make sure that the box I pass on to eric1989 contains the choicest sticks. The plastic containers could be returned to whomever supplied them, I'll check the archives 'cause I remember someone reporting that they added them.
On the other hand, I don't object to sending on the whole box (w/ my takes and puts). The bigger box pass has the advantage of more sticks to choose from.
Let me know your preference.
