I do love me some blind trading! What do you propose? Who draws first? I got one going out in a few days for rammstein142, so I could definitely put one together for you. PM me what you are thinking, and we can take it from there. Yippee, gunna do me sum more blind tradin'! :biggrin: :bigthumbs:
I'm down too Jessica. Let me know if you're interested
Give mean other few days/week to settle a bit from the move, I still have some regional cigars for a trade,,,,sorry, the move took a lot out me...
I ain't skurrd of no blind trades...lemme know how many and when...
How does it work?
Okay guys, I'm sorry for the delay... it's been a madhouse here bringing you guys great cigars at killer prices.
It looks like we have 6 people interested in a blind trade. So, let's get down to business. How would you all like to have your name put in a hat and we all blind trade each other and each send to one other person? We can either Secret Santa it where each person gets another random person or we can pick pairs of folks to trade within the pair. Any thoughts?
Are we better off doing a $$ amount or # of sticks trade?
I may be down
Mind if I join in the fun?

Ditto. I like the random pairing ideas Jessica. Looks like you have an odd number right now. Since I was last in, I'll sit out unless am other. Geek hops in.
I'm in if I'm not too late!
Any method works...as long as I get to blast some sucker!

I'd say retail cost is probably best. We should start small, say... $25?

So let's get back on topic. 5 cigars total value not to exceed $40 plus shipping. How does that sound
Alright guys... back on topic now. I have tentative interest from 12 of us. I'm going to post the list below and give us until Monday to finalize folks before I pull names. Please copy the list below and post next to your name if you're confirmed in for trade/bomb sent next week and whether you'd prefer randomly paired trades or anonymous bombs where you only know who you're sending to. Please also post your preference for how many sticks or a dollar amount limit. I don't want to go too low but I also don't want to price anyone out either. Then post the updated list.

Looks like we're waiting on a few responses. TJT Cigar I pretty much know is going to be in on this deal. Who else is in? Anyone not signed up before EOD Friday will have to wait for the next one.

Okay guys, I'm going to close this blind trade now. Yesterday was a madhouse here. As there was no preference, I left it up to our new general manager, Alan to chose. He knows little about cigar culture but LOTS about running an e-commerce. His first day was yesterday so we're breaking him in quickly.
Trade will be up to $100 total, anywhere between 5 and 10 cigars unless otherwise noted.
Pairs are as follows:
CigarPlace/Jessica and JHarris
Chip LeMaster and StogieDad
Vroomp and TJT Cigar
Nirab and Cfickter
S+J and CigarPlace - 5 sticks - $50 MSRP
I'll be dropping your trades in the mail on Thursday at the latest JHarris and S+J. Please double check your addresses everyone.
PM sent to my pair,,,,what are the rules on posting,,?

Chip,
I'm not one to treat grown men like children. Ship your packages to your blind buddy using the expediency, security, and using as much Geek Math as you would like to receive. If there are any packages that have no been shipped by EOD Friday, I will PM the other party at your request. Please try to resolve any issues amongst yourselves though and see me with any concerns. Knowing the names here, I don't believe this will be an issue.
Any service that will get this to them within 2-4 days is okay by me.
Sounds good. Is it ok if I wait to receive your package before sending mine? That way I can more truly reciprocate.
Chuck and I are going to send out ours next week. I am too busy this week to put together anything. I should have it ready to go on Tuesday. Thanks! :biggrin:

To my pairs,
I will be assembling your trades over the weekend as I have a large humidor project to undertake at home. I'm pretty sure that you'll be glad I waited to send yours out on Tuesday. I also failed to account for the Labor Day holiday and wanted to avoid packages sitting for 2-3 days...
9400111899561370519182 On the way Chip!
Vroomp: 9114999944238607607095. should be there saturday

I'll get yours out tomorrow TJ. With the holiday I imagine it will be Wednesday before you see it..... :-(

Unfortunately, I won't get yours out until Tuesday............ :-(
That's a good start to the hostilities, can't wait to see the damage as this one unfolds.
Do you all think it would be OK to have a Canuck join in the fun on the next one of these, what with the longer shipping times and all?

If we do another one, and if I participate, I have no problem being paired with a Canadian BOTL...shipped there plenty of times with no problems.
