While this pass is still in the early stages, I want to reiterate some pass etiquette--please consider the following when doing your takes and puts (thanks to Jackal for the text below--I have added a few words of my own as well):
Try and put in cigars of at least equal value as you take. Don't just go by price. Three $4 cigars do not equal one $12 cigar. When you make that kind of substitution, all you have done is diluted the quality of the pass and added more shipping weight.
Try and value the cigars by both cost and availability. If a cigar was $8 three years ago and cannot be found anymore, then it is probably worth more than a $8 cigar. Also, just because a Cuban cigar might be $4 when you buy them by the box, don't take that cigar and replace it with a readily available $4 Nicaraguan.
Don't look at a pass as a place to dump your beat up, moldy or beetle holed sticks.
Don't cherry pick out all of the quality and rare stuff unless you are going to replace the sticks with some super cigars of even better quality and rarity. Think about the next guys down the line and if they would appreciate your takes.
If you're not sure of cigar values, the internet is your friend...look up the prices of your take and put cigars, and use those values as a guide. When in doubt, consider not taking the cigar in question, or pm the moderator for guidance.
Thanks everyone, enjoy the pass!
