Keith -- I'll make sure I use the numbers when I finalize. I just wanted to see if these worked. Thanks for tackling this process!!!! Darryl

Chris -- Monday is MLK Day, so no Postal Service. I'll send it out on Tuesday!!!! Darryl

OK, I think I'm getting my takes down -- but one question: What is the value of the Custom Padilla rolled by Al? Any ideas? Here are my tentatives, so I can get a sense if I'm in the ballpark: Take: Cohiba XV 550 Put: Carlos Torano Reserva Selecta Robusto Take: Don Pepin Cuban Classic...

I just received the pass from IndyRob & took a look to see if all is well with the contents. Inventory is complete, but the #7 cigar (Patel Edge) is cracking at the foot. Just an fyi.... And Rob's gift to KeithS is indeed special. I'm glad Rob told us to keep it sealed, otherwise I would...

Here are a couple of links to rinse out your eyes from the earlier man boobs: NSFW: Celia Blanco is hot Celia NSF Hot Cigar Babe

I'm looking at my takes/puts and trying to identify value for value and have one question for clarification (and for my own peace of mind and clarification for others): Should values given to all cigars be MSRP or should value be Market Value? I know syllabus says MSRP but when using...

I'm good to go!

You found the motherload! I'm jealous. Here in Bloomington, IN my local retailer has 6 different Opus X available -- but they are asking 2 or 2.5 times MSRP. The Petite is $20.00 per stick, the Super Belicoso is around $25.... Ouch.

just to make this public, payment sent!

Congratulations! Be sure to forgive your wife for anything she calls you during labor. She is experiencing conditions that probably constitute "temporary insanity!" :)

Confirmed. PM sent re: payment. Just let me know. Thanks so much for coordinating this buy! drn

I'm in for a 5er. Like Cookie said, just let me know the specifics....

An update & a question: Update: CigarCyclopedia has changed their website structure and links. Here is the link to the pricing information -- and as you will see, they've made multiple links that download PDFs. I actually like the format change. Here is the link...

Holy cow, I'm first up after IndyRob! I'm feeling the pressure.... :0

bchem -- hang in there man, the hardest part is over. the defense will be surprisingly uneventful since you know your material so well. your adviser and committee are on your side -- they have too much invested in you to see you hit any speedbumps. the worst i've ever seen are minor...

The more I read about Parisi, the more he sounds like a speculator in almost any other field. So he has 60,000 cigars -- many that he purchased in bulk while visiting the Havana cigar factories. He puts them back, ages them, and in time will see some appreciation. But the example that gets me...

In the December 24th, 2007 Forbes there is an article about Salvatore Parisi, who not only loves to smoke great cigars but also use them as an investment. For example, Parisi purchased 15 Cohiba Behikes @ $375 -- and has seen them appreciate to $750 each over the past year. Similarly, he...

Thanks for the recommendations! I ended up going to Lonsdale to check it out, Cigar King, Ford & Haig, and Churchill's. My wife almost killed me -- but all of these places treated me GREAT! Thanks again! Darryl

I'm a dog lover, and any shop that has a "House Dog" earns my attention! My family volunteers at our local shelter and see hundreds and hundreds of deserving dogs needing families -- just be mindful many have histories that often require additional attention. Give it to them and they'll often...

I'm in Tempe for IU's Bowl Game and want to buy a few cigars for the post-game New Year's Eve Party. Does anyone have a recommendation for a place to purchase some nice cigars? I do appreciate the help! darryl
