they say it is the thought that counts. i know you sent a package. it is not here yet, which is not to say that it won't come...either way, repay is en route. i KNOW you will enjoy these tasties!

B,

When do you think enough time has elapsed for my package to get through? Will it be confiscated or go to you or back to me? It was not heavy as you recommended and I put down, the item description you gave me. I would like to get another out to you if we feel it is a goner.

Sam

i always wait a month before i give up hope...bbunge sent a package for me to TBU (which is easier as we have NO customs issues, and you know how to do it, and it is cheaper) in august. it never made it. it is a goner, even if someone finds it...too hot.

let's wait it out.

Sam,

Did you send it to my addy or to Brian's? Do you remember when you sent it?

I look everryday, and haven't seen anything yet.

Jim (TBU)

I sent the box out the week of 9/4. I seem to remember the clerk mention that it will be there in 4-6 weeks. I thought it odd but TBU got his in like 2 weeks I believe, so I disregarded her comment. If 4-6 weeks is correct, then if we wait until the week of 10/9 and you do not have them, we will discuss how to do this thing again. If you get them and they are in bad shape, I would like to know that info. At that time, we will figure how do do this thing right and I will try it again. No need to say that isn't necessary. So it is written! So it shall be done!

Sam

TBU...you didn't get yours either? I thought you got it already?

Sam,

I recieved your package for me.

I was just wondering if you were sending Burgess' package to me as well so I could forward it on to him.

Jim

Wow, I totally didn't get that. What a space cowboy I am!

I sent it to Brian. I remember the different address. I don't keep receipts and I didn't insure it because the USPS has been 100% reliable for the past 7 years with my stuff. Our Army friend in Germany has received every package within 2-3 weeks. I feel horrible about this. Is this just an anomaly or is there a history of lengthy shipments or lost ones?

Sam

Sam,

Brian was thinking that you were sending the package to me (we've done this on numerous occassions to save the shipper money and everyone time).

Once the package arrives at my FPO,I forward it on to Brian and he gets it the next day.

Oh well, Brian will be glad to hear the news. It's better that it's going to his addy than coming to mine and not being here yet.

We're good,

Jim

ummm, 4-6 weeks??? did you send cigars by surface?

don't you think they will be dried out?

If they are please tell me. I will make all things good. Sorry about causing these problems.

Sam

B,

I sent you an email about a package I received today. Please advise.

S

notice the title of this thread. smoke up brother!

thanks for the package you sent. they say it is the thought that counts. i beleive that. you tried to get me a gurkha i have never had. i appreciate it. do you like what you got???

B,

I sent you an email......Now back to business.

You have sent a most remarkable package of Diamond Crown maduros on the good faith that you will still receive my package to you. Well, Good faith is okay but a brother who steps up and sends a most primo cigar shouldn't have to wait and oh by the way, if and when the original arrives, keep them my friend....you are more than deserving. There will be another package sent out tomorrow but it will be sent the correct way. You are aces baby, ACES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your humble BOTL,

Sam

send via TBU--no worries that way.

enjoy them, brother.
