Title: Xiphos Cigars for Troops (No Shipping) And Geeks Too (Free Shipping)
Post by: Vroomp on 09/01/2020 12:50 PM

I will offer Xiphos Cigars in Any Size except Gordos (they're all gone) for the extra special price of $20/can. Small panatellas are not included in this offer~! You'll get credit for troop support and have no shipping charges as I will meet with Nate to drop off.

 This will be PP Friends and Family ONLY~! This offer is open to our Canadian brothers as well~! This sale ends Sept 30~!

 

I will also be offering the remaining Xiphos Cigars (for any Geeks that want them) I have left in stock at $3/stick* shipped in CONUS only. Cigars will ship in five finger bags unless you are willing to pay for any extra postage the cans create if you're just dying to have one or two. Please let me know if you just have to have the cans. Sale ends in November or when I run out of stock, whichever happens first.

(multiple cans don't fit many standard flat rate box sizes)

 As a result of the current Virus dilemma and being unable to visit many shops further away from home I have ceased business and closed up shop this year before I incurred additional fees for import & business licensing/tobacco taxes/corporate entity renewals/office rent/ and other sundry expenses saving me a lot of money (not to mention headaches). We had a fun five years selling cigars and meeting lots of folks, but this wasn't turning out to be the retirement job I had hoped. It was too much like work~!

 

* Small Panatellas will be $30/ can of 15 without the can that is...... :biggrin:

Sorry to hear you're shutting it down Brad, you made very good cigars and that is something to be proud of for sure.

Definitely will hit you up in the next couple weeks.

Wow, going to miss being able to pull a Xyphos from the humi. Guess I better start rationing.

Sorry to see this, Brad.  I smoked one of your cigars the other day and it was great.  But if retirement was starting to feel like work, then you've made the right decision.

Thanks Guys~! 

I was hoping this could become a steady source of income away from my building maintenance company, but alas, it is just too much work and way too much travel. Instead, I have decided to hand down the maintenance company to one of my daughters to control when I do retire in a few years (I'm not quite ready yet and only 62) since it generates a substantial income with little effort on her part.

 I am hoping I can cut myself in for a small monthly stipend to add to my SS (if that still even exists in a few years) and we have saved enough to survive comfortably.

 

For you younger fellas out there, I cannot stress how important it is to save, save, save~! Old age sneaks up on you faster than you think~! Don't count on Social Security to save your azzes~!

 

 As far as sales go, I can satisfy probably all requests for troops and personal use since I saved a couple thousand cigars for myself of Xiphos stock and I still have my personal collection which is around 3000 cigars to last me until my demise.

The only Xiphos Cigars in short supply are the Short Panatellas since they have always been our best sellers......

SORRY to hear all this Brad - but totally understand your decision. You had a good flavorful stick(s) and they will be missed. Luckily I still have about 4 cans in stock - now they will be retired for a few years to be enjoyed "down the road". Stay safe Brother.

Thanks Bruce, just wondering if the hurricane hit him. I hit him up with a couple of PM's and he didn't respond. More concerned than anything during his issues.

Sorry for the delay fellas, had to leave town briefly and I hate responding on my phone~!

To those that are paid already I will ship this weekend if you have specified your cigars. If you want me to pick for you, then you get whatever I have the most of, but I'll make it a variety. For the troops I am also sending whatever I have more of unless you specify a particular cigar.

 And thanks for your support for me and the troops as well~~!

  All orders that have been paid for personal use have shipped ~!

PS: Been a member over 3 years and still can't post pictures, and my wife is starting to pack my packages up. Just to old for technology. And no wise remarks from my left coast brother (headfirst).

Go ahead pick on the old guy, (check the cigars for troops thread about age)

Bruce I was going back and forth with Brian in Buda TX at the same time. But Sally may be giving some rain there in the next couple of days. So my thoughts go out to Nathan this time. I think I got it right this time LOL

I hope I have taken care of all orders so far~!  I had a few back and forth conversations and some messages got dropped outta sight so I hope I haven't missed anyone. If you sent money, your cigars have been shipped (or received already) or are awaiting my meet up with Nathan in October for the troop handoff.  I think I gave everyone feedback, but if I missed ya just let me know~!

I have everyone's cigars ready to hand of to Nathan, but I am going out of town for a bit. (Tired of looking at the back yard for 10 months)

I will meet with him after the 25th and I will be unavailable until then for any further orders.  Thanks~!

Hey, Brad-

Looking through your humidor, I didn't see any Xiphos listed.  Two things, are any of the X's still available and are you looking to sell any of the stock in you humi.? I'm looking for corona-sized sticks and I see some on your list.  Thanks, Larry, Liverpool, NY
