Will there be a limit to how many boxes can be purchased right out of the gate?
Just hoping as many Geeks as possible get a chance to get their hands on a box. :thumbsup:

Can't wait to try one. Not gonna lie though, pretty bummed about there being no CG band on the cigars. Kinda like buying a cigar and pretending its our own.
Edit: I just noticed the CG logo was on the box, so that's pretty cool.
It might be nice to mention during the announcement of the cigar now available for purchase that "Geek respect" to allow as many to purchase a box or split if they want to.

But it won't be public on the ecommerce site. You'll need to have the link, so hopefully that makes it easier. -Paul

There are very few folks that even print bands at reasonable prices and the minimum order is usually around 10,000 at a time. This costs around $700 for simple bands. Although $.07 per cigar doesn't sound like much, the set-up and print time can take up to two months! Plus, with a small batch like this you are looking at a cost of $.70 per cigar to cover band cost for this small run if no further cigars are produced. I for one could care less about the band missing even though it would be nice to have and a good advertising vehicle for the site. Guess we will have to settle for the $7 per box discount it provides instead! :biggrin:

No band is fine with me. I'm just hopeful that I can secure a box! :angel:
