It's in the Bag Pass

Well I suppose every pass has to have at least one complainer!

Consider yourself BACK in buddy!

Don't sweat it. HB just said what he felt, and he said it wasn't a personal slam, and you told him "no sweat."

As you stated in your reply, there were gripes about your initial iteration, you updated, some folks (me included) signed up.

I'll post agreement with HB on one point: some people tend to pussy-foot around things. While we want to keep it light & fun, if someone's not happy, they should say so, rather than letting it burn at them and ruin future relationships. I applaud HB for stepping up the plate when he felt uncomfortable.

...But if this particular pass isn't his cup of tea -- that's ok. I can totally understand the bit about "when I was first starting, I bought cigars as if I'd be a newbie for years and now I find I've 'outgrown' them, and am looking to move up" thing. I'm still a newbie (although I find my tastes are "advancing quickly" -- probably due to my time with a pipe and fine wines, there are many parallels), and I think your pass sounds just fine.

Plus, it's just fun to be in a pass!

Even if I end up with a few cigars from this that aren't to my liking, I trust you not to stick us with any "dog rockets", so I know I'll at a very minimum have a cigar or two that I can give to new-to-cigars friends as THEY'RE just getting started.

...But I'm betting that there'll even be a bonus or two in there that I'll really like, and isn't that half the fun of trading cigars?! :)

So, yeah, yeah, I'm being long-winded -- it's not like this is the first time :) But the bottom line is: if folks enjoy it, let 'em sign up -- if it's not their thing, let 'em "pass" (so to speak <G>)

Besides, we all know where you live... :D

The complaints about my initial posting (what I was asking for in return) were well founded. In my excitement about the pass, I just came up with some numbers off the top of my head - and was quickly informed that they were not appropriate. As you can see, when I realized my error I fixed it without complaint. Instead of saying my pass is not fair, why not say what can be done to make it fair?

Guys, I think Dave has put his money where his mouth is on this one. HBooker, props to you for speaking up, as well. There's nothing wrong with being forthright and honest. As the original "complainer" about the number of premiums that we were asked to put in, I have to say that I feel good with DaveWF leading this pass. I was amazed at how small the ego really was! He changed the numbers (cut them in half, actually) due to one or two reasonable concerns. In my book, that's a man I believe is confident enough to admit when his idea is not the best. That is the mark of someone I can trust.
:D
 
Careful, I'm gonna think you like me or something! :sign: :lookup: :D :p :)
 
If you have space for me, I would love to offer up 3 Premium smokes for a try at your trade!

You're giving three?!? Don't forget you can cheap out with two!

:sign: :p :D
 
Alright everyone, I had a minor little catastrophe and have (hopefully only temporarily) lost my past email. Can everyone that's interested in this pass please RE-EMAIL me your info just in case? Don't forget to tell me what pass this is for!

Thanks,
Dave ???
 
Dooh!?

I deleted all my past e-mail once :angry: , man was that a pain in the butt.

E-mail Resent!
 
thanks hbooker for the post above, i hope that with a little coaching, that i can surpass, "allright" :sign: , but i do appreciate you offering the trade, i hope i did it justice
 
Ok, I'm completely disorganized over here (fiance's bridal shower is in two days), but I think we have enough people here. I'm going to move this pass to "In Progress" even though it has not been mailed yet as a means to "lock" the pass. I'll try and post updates to what's going on, but please don't expect much before monday!

Thanks to everyone that's signed up (I'll post a verification list soon), and don't worry, I'll get this off the ground soon!

Dave ;)
