BOTL's in Arms Pass 2010

Alrighty then. Here are my P/Ts for review.

T #27 Tatuaje Reserva SW Maduro
P #57 PAN Exclusivo 7/09
The Reserva SW Maduro was only made in a 200 box run....much rarer (3 times) than even the tat dracs. Need some rarity here. Not to mention pricing is off by about $3

T #38 Padron FR#45 Natural
P #58 Opus Shark 2007
Good! :thumbs:

T #35 Anejo #48 2006
P #59 PAM Imperiales 8/08
Good! We're off a bit in rarity....but an over-put of $5 on the PAM I believe covers it...unless there are any objections :thumbs:

T #46 DPG My Father Lancero #4 '09
P #60 Cohiba Siglo II LPA JUL08
Good! :thumbs:

T #51 Cohiba Reserve Corona Especiales (OSU ENE 03)
P #61 L'Esprit de Verite Robusto 2008
I have the Cohiba at $16 and the L'Esprit (per box avg. on cigar cyclopedia) at $14.31...so this won't work on pricing grounds. One thing to consider if you want the Cohiba....I think this size was only available in the 2003 sets, rarity could be a factor....but I'd like input from someone a little more verse in limited ISOM's.

The dates for the PAN and PAM are the dates I have on the box from when I received them.

Fun stuff. Thanks Jake!

Not a bad start!!!!!

I'd re-look at the first and last trades. The Reserva SW Maduro had a MSRP of $13, but carries a very high rarity with it. The Cohiba is valued at about $16.43 and I believe carries slight rarity since It came only in a box set that was available in 2003...unless someone has other information on it.
 
Everyone have a MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!

Maybe Santa will bring you some new powerful toys this year? :thumbs:

Take's / Put's:

23) Tatuaje Cohete....................62) Anejo 50
My true feelings on this one is that since the Anejo's come out every year...and the Cohete's have only been released twice (2006 and 2009) in very limited (I think ~200 boxes each time) that we are dealing with a rarity issue here. Input is welcome....

45) H. Upmann Sir Winston(08)..63) Avo 80th
Good! :thumbs:

53) RYJ Duke...........................64) OpusX Perfecxion No. 2
I have the duke (per a 9 retailer average from cigarcyclopedia) at $18.58...The #2 is $15.00...Might lack a little on this one.

60) Cohiba Siglo II.....................65) Montecristo No. 2 (11/09)
Good! :thumbs:

...............................................66) H. Upmann Magnum 50 (02/09)
Thanks! :thumbs:
 
I always thought the Mosin-Nagant was one of the oldest service weapons.
It's been in service since 1891, hence the model M1891.
The Lee-Enfield was adopted in 1895.

You are correct...but service of the Mosin Nagant was discontinued in 1965....the Lee Enfield is still issued today....making it be "in service" for almost 40 years longer than the Mosin Nagant.
