Rules from the original thread!

Point one is to keep it real simple. I want to use the USPS video tape box for 10-12 cigars only. These boxes can be filled and mailed for the USPS Priority Mail minimum rate of $3.85.

The beauty of using a small box is that you don't have to go to the PO to mail it. Anything under 1 pound can be dropped off in the delivery box, or just put in your mailbox. When the box is getting near to you, just be sure that you have an empty box ready to go (they're free at the PO) and a Priority Mail stamp (or $3.85 in postage stamps). That way you don't even need to leave the house.

There are a minimum of rules: If you like all the cigars in the box, take 'em all and replace 'em. If you like none of them, just send it on. If there are Cubans in the box, replace them with good cigars, but no need for a "Cuban-for-Cuban" rule. The worst offense in any box pass (short of stealing the box) is sitting on the box for too long. The people downstream are all anxious to see it. If you know you're going to be out of town, just let your 'upline' know and you can change the order so the box will come in when you know you can attend to it

It is perpetual; it will go until there is no interest from anyone in receiving it anymore.

One tradition of box passes that HAS to be ignored is to "always leave the box better than you received it." If the box got better at each stop, it would soon be impossibly good. I am not the host here, so don't look to me to approve your trades.

Posting mail addresses online is not wise, so each person in the chain should email the person next down the list for the snailer. We can all keep track of the box and its progress by posting on the CBid thread.
