ok guys, i'm baaaack!
your plays are ok with me guys. just a note to everyone(and not singleing anyone out here) lets try to maintain the integrity of the pass so that the same combination of sticks are there for every one else.
if you take a full powered smoke please dont put a mild one in its place. and by all means if you have any questions about any cigar you feel may be questionable let me know and i can help.
everyone has my email and i forwarded everyone ( i think i did) my phone number for questions. if i didnt hit me up on the email and i will give it to you.
thanks so far for all the great smokes you guys have given me , i really appreciate it.

stoge is that directed towards me bro? if so tho the box is on it's way to eric i will forward something different.

marcus

no sir, not at anyone in particular just a pattern i see form time to time. a box pass with this many smokes is not just about matching value for value. you can find a smoke that is mild as all get out for the same price as a vsg for instance. same value? sure
same smoke? most definatly not
play on brothers

Sorry, didn't intend to make you nervous. They attempted to deliver yesterday, while I was at work. The box is at the fed ex office, in Ann Arbor. I am going to pick up at 4 pm, and I will list my takes/puts Monday, should be shipping tuesday.
My appologies,

Let me know if that sounds OK,

The Box looks as if it got tossed around a bit in transit. I have sorted through the contents, and there are 10 cigars which are damaged enough for me to ask if I may remove them from the pass, and send them back to Stogiedude.

4 of the damaged cigars are from the host bag, and the other six include a Don Carlos #2, and a VR Famosos (Split foot and tail) that had been added by Ferg just a couple of weeks ago.

I have taken the precaution of creating a "Tubos Only" bag, because the damage seems to be related to Tubos cigars amongst celo wrapped cigars, in a confined ziplock bag. I will place this "Tubos" bag at the bottom of the box, in hopes of preventing any further mishaps.

If everybody is good with this, I will ship on Tuesday,

There was a tubo-only bag when it left here. Were the damaged smokes from the tubos in the host bag or have the tubos in the pass migrated into the general population?

The VR Famoso was in perfect shape when it left, but I have no problem replacing it ASAP, I think maybe Marcus was fondeling it before he sent it out!!!!!!!! Just kidding of course, Stogie, let me know where to send a replacement so that it catches up with the box my friend.

By the way, nice plays Eric, hope things are going well for you.

Fantastic plays eric.

Eric - looks good to me!
