As has been promised for quite some time, I’m unloading bulk.
This is going to be a HUGE reverse-ratio pass AND boxpass. Info will be added over the next day or two as questions arise, but here’s the basic idea…
Back when I was severely addicted to CigarBid.com a little over a year ago, I bought a LOT of pretty cheap, but relatively decent (ok, MOST were decent) smokes. Usually in the $1 each range. I’m starting to expand my collection of more higher quality smokes, but have run out of space in my cooler. Yeah, I know… get another cooler. Maybe when we put the addition on the house (no plans anytime soon), but until then, I’m trying to keep it down the just one 154 quart cooler. What all this means for you is that I’m going to be unloading a lot of aged, but cheaper cigars. Here are the brands of the ones I have in bulk (at least 10): Moran, Blender’s Gold, 5 Vegas, Fuego Del Rey, Vargas, Hoja de Nicaragua, Nicaragua Specials, Dos Gonzalez, Indian Tabac. I have lesser quantities of many others, these will be even distributed throughout the bags (yes, that means the people earlier in the pass will get first pick – I’ll try and keep all bags relatively equal). Just trust me, you’re going to get a LOT of cigars!
I’m going to limit this to only ten people. At my last count (but I’ve smoked a few since then) I had approx 300 cigars in bulk to give away. This means each person will get an individual bag with approx 30 cigars in it. Here’s what I ask in return:
Either
1-2 Super Premiums (i.e. ISOM, PAM, Opus X, HTF Hemmingways, etc)
Or
2-3 Premiums (i.e. Fuente, Padron, etc). These will go into a separate container for me.
But wait, that’s not all! As many of you know, I just received another pass back (Back to the Basics Boxpass) that started out with 100 cigars from me. Unfortunately I received over 50 of those back. The bulk of those (and some others I have lying around here) will go into a separate boxpass that everyone will participate in. Standard reverse-ratio rules (better quality in – but not necessarily quantity) apply. Remember, I’m trying to UNLOAD what I have so here’s a little change for you. Let’s say I put in 30 cigars, and 10 people joined… No matter what else you took from the box (i.e. other peoples puts) you would have to take 3 cigars that I put in (1/10 of what I started it with, get it? ). Now, to prevent people early from taking all the really good stuff, remember – quality is what’s important. If you take out all the great cigars, I expect even better put back in since you’ll put in less. I’ll put a few extras in so the first couple people have the opportunity for more then just 3. Also, to make sure I get some of what people are putting in for me, after the 3rd person, no one may take more then 1 cigar from any person other then me. Make sense? Feel free to ask questions. Remember, this is a work in progress!
One firm rule I have is that for you to join, I ask two things. First, you have registered BEFORE this message was posted. Second, you have either already participated in at least one pass here, or have someone on the board (that has already participated in one pass) able to vouch for you. Remember, I’m putting a ton of cigars at risk here – I need a little reassurance.
One last little thing, there’s a bit of a contest here as well. I have a sealed box (6 Cigars) of various size Don Diego Playboy cigars. The person with the fastest turn around, figured from del conf # delivery time to del conf # pickup time (make sure they scan it!) at the end of the pass will get this specialty box sent to them.
If you’re interested, Post a message AND ***EMAIL*** me at DaveWF@CigarPass.com with *The Pass You Want To Join*, your name, screen name, address, and (if you have under 100 posts) home phone number. This pass is protected by C.P.I. Check out the link on the main page. Protect your passes!
