Pipe Tobacco and Accessory Wish PIF

[bfreebern]

I can see both points of view.

I don't feel particularly obligated to send anything extra since this is a pipe forum (ie cigars) and certainly wouldn't want anyone else to feel obligated. Infact I appreciate those of you who have chosen to do so. Expecting something extra kind of defeats the purpose of sharing for sharing's sake. IMHO

However, I would continue to participate regardless if it was a mandatory part of the PIF. I just wonder if others would (ie those just taking up the pipe)?

My 2 cents.......but all is good

Your thinking is correct. No one is obligated to send anything other than what was wished for and granted. It is completely up to the sender whether they send anything else. I think it was mentioned really as way to make the shipping cost seem a little more "worth it."

I just don't know that we have enough pipe smokers here to support a fast moving thread like the cigar MAW/PIF. The idea of sharing is wonderful and I think the thread should continue. I just think maybe we shouldn't expect it to move too quickly.

I also hope nobody feels too intimidated to participate. We're all pretty friendly.

Until I build up my stash, I'm pretty intimidated, LOL.

We could also use a lower cost of shipping, since pipe tobacco isn't readily dried out, as with cigars. I agree that we need to keep this thread. Once it cools off, I'm betting it will pick up as well. Hell, when it's 95+, I don't even smoke cigars that much, let alone pipes. If I do, it's early early morning, when it's still cool.

I got an idea! Since none of you latakia losers ever wishes for anything I have an abundance of, I've got a tin of Escudo I'll send to the first person, who hasn't ever tried it, posts and requests it.

Doc.

I was going to buy a tin of this, but since you're offering :thumbs:

I haven't tried it and would like to, since I've heard good things.

Thanks Doc!

That was a good point, Brandon, about lower shipping costs. But I couldn't find any cheaper options that didn't involve subterfuge. But then UPS doesn't officially mail tobacco products anyway. Hmmm

Is this now joshmickelson's turn or is brandon now up?

 

[joshmickelson]

I checked at my B&M and did not see those tobbaccos...sorry. Anything else I can offer?

So we're back at crluap's wish, right? I think that's the case.


I'll tell you what, I'll send Paul something form his list and then Josh can have my wish. Make it a good one, Josh!

 

[joshmickelson]

Alan, you are very generous, thank you so much! I plan on jumping in on this pass once I can accommodate the requester. Again, thanks.

I realize my wish list might be a tad generic, but there are a few “classics” I still have not enjoyed. So here it goes:

Butternut Burley (have been reading a bunch about this lately, just haven’t placed an order yet online, looks insanely good!)
Westminster
Gawith & Hogarth – Rum Cake
Robert McConnell's Scottish Cake

Was about to place an order, including Butternut Burley. Will 4 ounces work?

Josh, freebern likes to take the term "rub out the flake" to a whole new level so let that stuff dry out for a good week or 3. :sign:

I haven't had the opportunity to use it for a while, so Jonas just for you:

DICK!

I'm relatively new to all this, but anything will work. Here is what I've purchased lately:

Frog Morton - On the town
Penzance
Early Morning
Squadron Leader
Full Virginia Flake
Royal Yacht
Light Flake
Kingfisher
Butternut Burley

I'm up for anything really. I've read good things about Westminster, but not really picky at this point.

Brandon I am sure I can come up with something let me get
home after work and I will see what I can come up with.

 

[bfreebern]

Thank you sir, much appreciated!

 

[dartplayer1]

Brandon I have something I think you will enjoy :whistling:

I will need your address as I seem to have lost it.

I will post a wish list asap.
