Right or Wrong?

When you build a bomb... do you recycle smokes that were gifted to you.....

Be honest.....

I don't think I've ever re-gifted smokes... but under the right circumstances I could see it. Perhaps you were gifted a cigar that a lot of people really like, but you don't care for. It's better that someone enjoys it, rather than just stuffing it in a corner and forgetting about it.

Absolutely.

For one thing, I can't keep track of who gave me what.

Another thing; I don't necessarily like ALL the smokes I receive. I am appreciative of the gift, but I probably will never smoke some of the sticks I get. Why should they sit in my humi?? It is not a matter of quality, but a matter of taste. There are some top end smokes I don't care for.

They are mine anyway........so why shouldn't I do what I want with them?

BTW...The smokes I'm using for my mold test were purchased by ME.

Yes, I have, on occasion. I was gifted several really primo super premiums, along with several other good smokes. Since I received duplicates of the super premiums, I passed one along to a deserving brother who had never had one.

On other times I have passed along very nice cigars I had received as gifts that just didn't meet my taste profile, to someone who loved them. And I sent even better sticks to the one who had gifted me in the first place.

Gifts are always special, but too special to let sit if I won't be smoking them. I agree with Andy, once you have received a gift, it belongs to you, to do with what you wish.

If I give something nice to someone, and it's something they don't particularly enjoy, I'd be happy for them to trade it for something they like.

And just so everyone knows.........if you ever get a cigar from me that you SENT to me previously.......don't read anything into it.

I don't gift crap cigars......I gift good cigars that I think people will like. I sent out cigars that I like. If I send you your own cigar back, it means;

a) I like that particular cigar

b) I forgot I got it from you.

I have, and think its fine. Especially if I get a smoke I know some other BOTL would love.

Just had a conversation about this very issue tonight. My friend see's it the same way.

I sent Andy a whole box of dog rockets. He sent me two boxes of the same rockets back with a note that said "Pulling my finger would smell better than these."

We'll see if he ever gets Cat Flavored White Owls from ME again.

hmmhp!
