Title: Looking to arrange a swap
Post by: millarddj on 12/12/2015 06:54 AM
I have a number of cigars that have been placed in my mental "trade bin" for one reason or another, and I thought I'd post to see if anyone was interested in arranging a trade for some. I think it's solid enough to offer up, and I'd like to get a few more things to try. These are NOT sticks I'm trying to dispose of. They're either ones I've tried and haven't been the biggest fan of, bought at least a fiver of, or are probably too full for me to appreciate. I'm willing to swap a minimum of four to as many as you might want. Please send me a PM if this piques your interest.

?   Ave Maria Divinia (no tube)
?   Cohiba Nicaragua N54
?   Camacho Triple Maduro Robusto
?   Camacho Corojo Robusto
?   CAO America Potomac Robusto
?   CAO MX2 Robusto
?   Drew Estate Natural Dark Angel
?   Drew Estate Tabak Especial Toro Negra
?   Drew Estate Undercrown Shade Robusto
?   Gran Habano 3 SLS Robusto
?   Joya de Nicaragua Antano 1970 Robusto Grande
?   Joya de Nicaragua Red Toro
?   Macanudo Maduro Crystal
?   Montecristo 75th Anniversary Blend Edmundo
?   Montecristo Reserva Negra Belicoso
?   Oliva Cain F460
?   Oliva Nub 460 Cameroon
?   Perdomo Reserve 10th Anniversary Champagn Robusto
?   Relic (by AJ Fernandez) Perfecto
?   Rocky Patel Decade Toro
?   Rocky Patel Edge Corojo Toro
?   Zino Platinum Scepter Series Grand Master

There are a few cigars I'm specifically hoping to try, but I'm to anything, especially if I haven't tried it and it's not too full-bodied. :-)

Drew Estate Java Mint
Flatbed Panacea Green
Xiphos Short Panatella
Any Perdomo Craft Series
Cohiba Red Dot
L'Atalier LAT series
Camacho Ecuador
San Cristobal Elegancia
Drew Estate Smoking Monk

Two trades pending. Given my list above, I think I can say that I'm tapped and that this thread thoroughly served its purpose. :dancing:

Dang.  That did go quick.  Only if you're sure the: Ave Maria, CAO America, Perdomo, and Macanudo are traded, can I accept this tragedy.  :lmao:  You literally just traded 3 of my favorite cigars (first three I mentioned). I'd have been willing to trade just about anything in my humidor for those three cigars. With the exception of the ones that came from an ISOM. :-(

I still have some Perdomos, AM Divinias, and Macanudo Maduros available!

I would like to go down on record as saying that you guys are the best. Two days later and I've got four concurrent trades with fellow newcomers and veterans alike. This is really encouraging for someone like me, who likes to try a little of everything!  :dancing:

Received Chuck's fiver. Even though I dispatched Undercrowns, I feel like I got the good end of this. The two Sevillanas I've had lately have been great, and I can't wait to take a crack at the Eastern Standard. Thanks a lot Chuck!

I also got Phil's, and he spoiled me rotten. I asked about a few specific sticks he had in his humidor and wondered if he might consider parting with them. His response was something along the lines of "don't even worry about it, I'll take care of you". This is what turned up on my doorstep. Going to have to prep some serious firepower to send back.  :-0

As for Brad, well, he doesn't play fair. I was expecting a blind fiver and got completely mauled. Ten sticks, a solid six from my wishlist, and a couple I've never even heard of before. Thank you so much! :dancing:
