just an update on the pass. i lost it.

i kid, of course.

first off thanks for letting be a part. there are some great smokes in there. after i opened it, i wanted to do about 5 more puts and takes, but alas...

secondly, all the humidipacks seemed to be chagred and working well.

thirdly, im not aure what the thinking was behind using a wooden humidor, but i might rethink that your next go around. im not sure what kind of shape the humidor was in when you started, but its pretty much ruined now. the hinges are broke, the lock is busted and its pretty beat up. also, this weighs much more than the average tupperdor. you would save your pass participants alot of money by going a different route next time.

anywho, again, thanks for the invite. ill be sending this bad boy out manana.

Yesterday at one of the Disney gift shops I found the coolest thing ever:

So I have gone through the box and all looks well. I am however going to make one more pass through it just to make sure that I have not missed anything. I am awaiting markmarksman and his proposed puts and takes, but everything seems to be in order. Just to refresh everyones memory here is my P's and T's-

Ok so after further review and discussion, T#64-Tat Frank/P-Padron 40th Natural is no good due to rarity not matching. You met the msrp and then some, but the Franks are pretty rare. I would like to see a replacement here.
 
First off thanks to Christian and Brian for helping me through these. So here is the new and approved version of my P/T's


TAKES

#47 WOAM
#64 Tat Frank
#70 Partagas Culebra


PUTS

#78 Tat Black for the WOAM
#79 Cohiba 2006 EL Pyramid (ISOM) for the Tat Frank
#80 Padron 80th Natural for the Partagas Culebra
#81 DPG Black Label Lancero
 
OK, here is the deal. I picked up the pass box from Jim (stepthirteen), Jim and I put it in the back seat of my car, I drove home, carried the box into the living room and opened it up for inspection. The problem with the hinges has already been mentioned. The beads and humi packs where a tad dry so I fixed them up. Good to go on that.

As I started to pull the bags out I noticed a sound like broken glass. Sure enough, the glass tubed of the 1998 Partagas Decades IV - Glass Tube was shattered. Apparently the cigar was not removed and placed in a bag. Oh well. I cleaned it up and placed it in a bag with the correct number. No big deal. Cigar is in great shape.

Now we get to the pass cigars and I first start looking for the sticks I am looking to take. Here is where a problem starts. The numbers are NOT correct and I am going to have to take some time to work this out. Looks like this started to get out of wack a few members back so this is going to take some time. Example: GregSVT list his first P as #63 Partagas Culebra and the page 1 post lists that same stick as #70. See what I am saying?

But no worries. I will get this sorted out tomorrow night. Its going t take a little time for this newb to fix things up but I will. Now I'm going to bed.

My 83 year old father is going under the knife for a pretty major surgery in the morning and I am the taxi so it will be sometime in the evening before I get home so please be patient. Thanks
