I am a member on several cigar sites, I have done a few passes, and honestly I find that I don't have the patience for passes. It is kinda like wait, wait, wait, then....HURRY HURRY....lol

I like trades, but I prefer not knowing what I am going to be getting. I like to trust that the folks that sign up for trades, know a bit about what they are doing and are going to treat their trade partner right.

So that being said, anyone up for a trade? I am interested in a minimum of a five stick trade, no crappy sticks, but no need to drop a cuban either. If you are interested drop me a note and we can set something up.

Something like that could work I suppose. However, you might want to hang around for awhile, establish yourself, maybe participate in a pass or two, and in general get to know us and we get to know you...before expecting anyone to just send you 5 nice sticks. Ain't none of us just fell off the turnip truck you know. We are a generally trusting bunch but let's not get silly with it.

I think "crappy sticks" is a relative term, LMAO. I like fake cuban cohibas from a glass topped box, at least the ones I had, the next guy down the line might not.

I've done several of these "blind" trades...what I find has worked in the past is to state the number of cigars (5, 10, whatever) and then establish a ball park $$$ figure for the overall value of the trade.  That provides some flexibility on what level of cigars to include, but keeps it equitable.

Blind Trades are how they do them with newbies on Cbid, but the newbie

sends their end first, that way everyone is protected. He's been a member

here since August so i'll take the plunge with him, and pretty much regardless

of what he sends, I can match or beat it all in the spirit of being a good BOTL!

So the door is still open on my end brotha! Send me a PM if you're serious.
