Quotentanner - 4/24/2019  6:30 PM  "All good in the hood brotha, not the end of the world it's just cigars  "  What are you saying Tom? Just cigars?   :-0   My God Man, this is Cigar Geeks, it's never  "Just Cigars". :nono:   We even have reviews posted for all 11 cigars in the Swisher line. Round these parts every cigar is important and special and you would do well to remember that.

I've been so taken aback by this, feeling such shame, that I haven't had the courage to respond.  Please forgive me, I have sinned   :bow:  :bow:  :bow:

:biggrin:  Good, now as your penance you got to smoke 3 Gurkas and 1 Pineapple white owl. :barf:  :lmao:

If that's my penance, I'll take a chance with the guy downstairs!!!  :smoker2:

I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

Alright, finally got some time and am getting around to shipping this pass along, sorry again for all the delays.

Brian sent the box well packaged, and included a great t-shirt and stickers for his podcast.  I'm now subscribed and will be listening!  Thanks Brian!



My takes are on top, puts on bottom.  Let me know if this looks good to y'all.

I'll plan on shipping this out unless there are any objections.  

Ed (arrow34), this is coming your way next.

PS: Something special in there for you, Tom

Wow, nicely done Brian!
This is not the admin you're looking for...

Silverstix

Brian - very cool stuff you put in there!

Ryan - looks great to me, and very generous of you to put something there for me! Thank you very much, totally unnecessary!!

Can't wait to see everything that you guys share

I put the first tracking code in the system, then noticed I entered the address wrong, I put Rochester instead of Rochester Hills...  Voided and paid new postage, not it wasn't me that messed up, USPS cuts off the Hills in the city for some reason...

New tracking number is:    9405809699939929396929

Nice P&Ts Ryan,
Was wondering about your comment (round) on the Cranium.  It doesn't come in any other shape that I am aware of? The only 2 box press Romas that I have seen are the Blockhead and Goodness.

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.

Nice! Looking forward to getting the package. You put in one cigar I was going to (he Miami), well will rethink that one. ;) Thanks for getting it out.  Question on pic posting. My cell pics are usually too big. How do you guys get the size low enough to post or do you host on another site?

It's a good cigar, I need to stop giving them away :D

You can add size tags to the html for the image.

 Gotcha, the German releases "Wonderlust" are all round also, but I guess who ever entered it in the DB included it for some reason?

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.
