CP's "Cigar 101" Newbie Pass 4

IMHO, I am more fond of the collective value ideology whereby you would value all of the Takes vs the Puts as long as there aren't any egregious differences where a Put is far too low or high of a value. However, the rules were put in place by the moderator for a reason and I think it's ultimately his call. Personally, I wouldn't assign any value beyond the sticks, but I'd prob pick the Padron over the CAO if given the choice.

I think....I think....I think....I think....

I think I forgot what I was going to say...Brain Fart. Her fault.


Oh yeah. I don't think that the box should count as a player in the price. You can go round and round on the price of the box but it is all part of marketing. It's like removing promotional costs from the price of the cigar on a huge set of ads. Or freebies. If you buy a single Vision at a B&M, it is based on the MSRP of the cigar, not the box. Opus X has a nice box, and the Soprano, and the Comacho Diplomat, the LG..... Need I go on?

Thats mesmerizing.
 
Everyone, I'm going to make a small change in the pass line-up. I've got to send Jepe some cigars for the MAWPIF, so am going to let him do his T/P's now (before Don). This way I can go ahead and send his takes along with his MAW smokes (keep me from having to ship to Israel twice).

Jepe - Go ahead and post your T/P's here. Thanks!!
 
Nevermind! Please ignore previous post. Temporary loss of brain function.
 
We're off to a great start!!

Glad to see it arrived. I was beginning to think the USPS had a problem with you Greg. :laugh:
 
The big guy arrived today. The box had some damage, but the cargo was fine. I did my business and called Sweetrice80. He is picking it up tomorrow from me. Will post pictures if allowed. Let me know...Have fun guys. That's what it's all about. Hum. Sounds like the Hokey Smokey. LOL. Sometimes I crack myself up...

I opened the box and removed the Tupperware. Everything was packed well and well humidified.

I thought I would take a picture of the damage to the box. We will change the box for one in better condition to re-mail.
