These guys are a class act.  The packages include the cigars, the review forms and return envelopes prepaid.  I am on my second box that I got Tuesday with their gift  pack and looking forward to this set of reviews

Yes, I was impressed with their planning.

Three in the mail. Smoked the last one this morning. As soon as I write it up and can make it down to the settlement through the snow and battling wolves and bears every step of the way I will firmly attach it to the mail mule!

Sorry, Matt you weren't on ignore.  A few on the site were asked if we wanted to review some cigars.  In the initial run, we were sent 4 cigars to review.  After you completed all 4, they sent out a gift pack consisting of a Xikar ash can, a cutter, case, lighter and single cigar ash tray along with andother 4 for review.  It is a really well organized review, but I don't think anyone know where the cigars originated from manufacturer wise.

As far as I know, this was limited to folks in the US, Matt.  We were asked via PM to participate, and I have no idea how we were chose - possibly due to the number of reviews we've done on the site?

Hey, Matt, even though you might the red-headed orphan child right now maybe you can catch up when you get back into range. As I recall, you are returning to states soon, eh?  :biggrin:

Just a heads up guys, the envelopes were made up prior to the recent increase a week ago.  I would go into the post office with them, they tack on another 3 cents.  I had no change on me, just dollar bills, so I walked away with 97 cents in change.

Well actually, I am the living proof this was open to International Geeks as well. I received the package in Canada without a glitch and will be reviewing as soon as my health permits. Would have done it long ago if it hadn't been for medical problems.

 I think it depends on the mood of the post office.  They may send it back to you with insufficient postage, or make the receiver pay before they can pick up their mail.  Or they may just not care and hand it over.  Who knows??

Good to know!

These went out in the mail today, and I didn't even think about the postage.  Hopefully, they go through.... :confused:

Awesome!  Sounds really cool.   Guess I like reviewing, but only when I'm asked to.  Otherwise, I just enjoy my smokes!
