So Hinzna had the box mailed out around the 10th of December and made it to within 30 min from my house in Washington when it decided to head to the east coast and wound up in Cincinnati... then disappeared for almost two weeks!! called the post office and they had no idea where it went and was last logged as in transit. then one day, that just so happened to be the day Hinzna sent a new box out and was going to claim the lost one, the box shows back up on the radar and lands on my door step almost a month after it was sent via two day express. Go USPS=d>

i have to give Hinzna huge props because he handled everything great and besides USPS sucking at life, nothing else about this trade could have been handled any better! He made sure i knew he was making a effort to track down where the box was and was in constant contact with any updates or to see if the package landed. once we both agreed that the box was lost, he sent a replacement no questions asked. I couldnt have asked for anything better, especially with it covering both major holidays!

but once it did land, what a nice group of yummy smokes! the box must have also went to vegas or something because a fiver grew to seven some how.. here is the damage:

a brick house (nh)
Diesel (a really good stick)
VS 55 5 year aged (nh)
Camacho corjo new blend (nh)
601 blue label (havent had one of these in a while, great flavors)
La Reloba (love these little guys)
Padilla reserve (nh)

will definitely enjoy these and with a crazy work week, i am sure that they will be needed!

thank you Hinzna and you'll have your fiver(ish) inbound soon to repay the extras you sent.

Now this is how it's supposed to be. Great job Hinzna.

=d>

PING PUFFNSTUFF, take notes


Hinza is a good noop.

You know it is a strong hit when it arrives very late and still go BOOM!

Great hit Hizna - tremendous follow through as well.

That was quite the wild ride! Now.... good luck bringing those back to life... hopefully the other ones are smokeable when they get to you!

Me likes the brickhouse.

Oh and I just got Ryan's package... you gotta be kidding me man! Will post a pic today....but this is ridiculous.... I may be an alright noob but mountainman is a far better noob than I.

Sender bears risk until delivery.

You should be thanking the USPS for aging your cigars.

[sarcasm]

=d>

I'm should, for all I know they took a trip to Cuba and were perfectly cared for and were stored with great aged leafs to enhance the flavor! USPS's way of saying happy new year and merry Christmas... That's what I'm choosing to believe any way.
