I know this is not Michael's fault but I took the Tats out of the plastic and all five have cracks and splits throughout the sticks. Anybody else experience that?
The wrapper seems to be very fragile on these cigars. |

Let Michael know and I'm sure he can get them replaced. |

| Scott I should be able to get those replaced no problem. Send them back and I'll swap them at bm. I didnt notice any split wrappers when packing...a couple with minor flaking on the foot was about it. |

Were any of the other cigars damaged or only the tats? If you don't mind, could u post a pic so I can know whether this was shipping damage or something else? |

Anyone else has this kind of damage let me know. |

| This makes me nervous. This has happened to me quite a bit with overseas shipping. I think it's a temp/ humidity issue. |

I'm pretty sure it's a temp humidity issue as well. I should've taken more time with it and made sure everyone was shipped with a humidity pack, but I had 19 boxes to ship and didn't want to eat that much in media costs. Lesson learned though. Next time I run a split I'm going to factor in additional shipping costs and include the proper media. |

| Well...they came in. Damn dude! Embarrassingly enough to say, I have now been bombed by this guy twice in a row with no recourse.... Hmm.... Well, this is what I got! Crazy!
On a side note, only 1 with a real crack but all above the band. 2 others with some tiny cracks. WHEW! Nothing I can't repair myself.. Thanks brother! Can't wait to get into them!

| I got my "five" in today. This makes two days in a row that when I go to visit the mailroom, all that I can find is a smoldering crater!
Thanks Mike for the split, and thank you again for the incredible bomb that came with!

I got mine, safe and sound. lapyap sent, all feedback left.
And Ntxsage included a huge bomb of rare and hard to find sticks. Way over the top. WOW.
Thank you very much Michael, very well done. Please let me know any time you are doing a box split.
Kev I had a cool note for your box, but got in a rush trying to meet the post office last pickup and left the note out. Glad u enjoy. After that was in too big a hurry and no more notes. Hope it didn't seem too impersonal with sticks just showing up.
You just go'head and be that kinda impersonal ever time the hanker'n hits you, Michael................I'll suffer through, best I can.  |
