Its on its way to Ryan.  Sorry guys, the pass order changed, I changed the box so we weren't using a Large Flat rate to ship it and I added a couple of extra finger bags.  And then it was Easter weekend... my bad.

I was supposed to be next on the list but had a mom and baby emergency when Stessl and I were supposed to get together to hand off.  Silverstix changed order up at my request.  Sorry for me holding things up so this one was on me.  Everything is fine on my end now and looking forward to this pass later on down the line.

Not sure about that either, that's the way it is in the DB, so I figured the "non-round" one was some sort of box press...

I know they make a lot of slightly different German releases, so who knows.

Hey Ed,  May want to take a look at those puts and takes and make sure they are matching up stick for stick in value.  We typically use Famous/CI box pricing.  Also try to match the hard to find status of certain cigars (Shark and Scotch Bonnet) with equally hard to find cigars

Glad you enjoyed it, Ed!  I was worried I was sending all this stuff to some Mopar maniac who would be insulted ;).

I normally have even more goodies to give away, but was running low.  Anywho, for anyone who's bifocals aren't good enough, what I wrote on the business card holders is, let me know if y'all want some swag, or if you're in the market for a new Subaru, I have $500 off coupons to give away.

Ok Ok I've been busy alright...

Kent and I met this last weekend to hand off the pass. He included for me his favorite things. Lighting, Beer, Cigars.

Home made "whiskey" I believe that is going to hurt me during after and the next day...several tokens good for beers at a local brewery and wonderful little Punch from some island down south. Kent and I meet up for s moke often so we're always sharing cigars and other items. It's always a pleasure and this was no different.

I will be putting the pass in the mail on Thursday. Sorry for the delay and thanks for letting me play!

I agree, wish there were more geeks in mine too.  I have to develop smokers in my area.  I have a standing herf group at my local cigar bar every Friday.  But some of the guy almost live there, they are creatures of habit, but I keep brining new sticks for them to expand their horizons.  I got a few trying new items and moving away from the standard, ashtons, padrons and montecristos.

Neal sent me a sweet package with tons about him.  It included two hand rolled cigars that he has taken up as a hobby, 3 samples of some home made mead since he also dabbles in that, as well as a T-shirt, cards and a well thought out letter showing off his auto-detailing business.  If I lived in NM I know who would be detailing my truck!  Thanks a ton!

I will have my P/T done tonight and out by tomorrow, got a little busier than I thought this weekend.

Hey guys, I'm not actively involved in this Pass, but I do have a question....The #6 cigar listed in the list for this pass is labeled as DQ'd? I'm "assuming" that, that stands for disqualified(that could be the problem--me assuming things). I don't want to create any friction, but why would it have been "DQ'd"......enquiring minds and all that good stuff
