Title: My mind & my mailbox have been blown!
Post by: bertf86 on 10/28/2015 12:20 PM
Evening all,

I have just had the great pleasure of coming home & finding that there had been a parcel delivered for myself... I was so confused as I had not ordered anything recently & only received the shipping number for my SOA cigars this morning, so was really intrigued as to why I had a delivery.

all of a sudden there was a mass explosion (of packing peanuts :lmao: ) as I got bombed for the very first time!!!  :drool:  :cigarman:

CyB Toro Supremo
Rocky Patel Vintage 2003
Guayacan Sabor De Esteli
Quesada Tributo
Pinar Del Rio Oscuro

Stephen (Appollo), you have truly humbled me brother. I cannot express my gratitude at having received this (I have been caught that off guard, I haven't even bought my humidor yet :lmao: ) & I look forward to being able to reciprocate the explosion in time! The note that you sent has also made me realise how lucky & grateful I am to have found this site & the great geeks who roam it!

struggling to wipe the smile off my face,

Very nicely done~!  :bigthumbs:

  You should enjoy that Sabor de Esteli. It is rolled by Noel Rojas of Guayacan Cigars.

Awesome job and that smile isn't going anywhere for awhile.IIt's happened to all of us at one point or another.
 P.S A airtight rubber made container or Tupperware and a couple large boveda pakes make a great improvised humidor .

The box was in perfect condition on arrival, I actually struggled getting it open haha must admit I need to get my hands on some of those bags for when I send some cigars - they are just excellent the way the cigars fit in (though the sabor de esteli was a tight fit :lmao: )

Thanks once again Stephen!

Very nice! Sounds like you really caught him off guard. Must be a nice change of pace after all the trouble you've had with the SOA sticks.

Yeah Devin it really did! I was so confused about what I may have ordered & not once did it cross my mind that it could have been a gift from this site (for some reason I thought the points system meant my address wasnt visible until I had reached 100 points & was able to see others).

Yeah it really has cheered me up with all the challenges ive had with those sticks!

Well done Stephen.
I remember the first bomb that blew my mailbox a few years ago and I can tell you the smile hasn't left my face yet. Sending them also brings me joy.

This community never ceases to amaze me  :bigthumbs:
