ok. so i am still in shock and somewhat recovered from this hit. Which by the way, was perfect timing! My personal stash and funds to buy cigars has been so low (cause i put my money into the opfth shipping costs monthly) that i had less then 50 sticks in my personal coolador. Which is FULL again - THANKS! Now i have no worry on what to smoke this summer . I was spacing out my cigars weekly and worried i was gonna run out soon. No worrys now
I will do my best at thanking everyone involved in this. The following is a short cliff notes list of those that boxes were recieved already. For those saying "if you dont like what i sent give to the troops" - you can forget about that! I will enjoy each and everyone of these personally (well maybe not the victoria 2007's until i know what they are
). any errors in this list? probably! i was a bit overwhelmed opening the boxes and might have lost track at times
