The question of the day is; Why do I even try?

A couple of weeks ago I went to a local cigar event where Cuesta-Rey was introducing their new Centro Fino Sungrown's. Of course I got a couple free cigars to try and there was some decent prices on boxes. The cigar wasn't bad (I did give a short review around the time I smoked it) and I decided to get a couple of boxes. Well I get home and find that I don't have room in my humidors or any of my tupidors for all the cigars so I get this bright ideal and decide to do a trade. This way I figure that by the time the trade is completed I will have smoked enough to fit the traded cigars into a decent resting spot.

When I posted the trade, three BOTL responded and the agreed upon terms were set. Deals all done and I was looking forward to trying some new smokes.

Well here is the reason for the question. I won't go into the details what was traded. I will just say that I thought that I was going to be able to make some room in my dors.

First up: Bildo

This brother just bombs the day lights out of me with maddies of extreme quailty. I will trade with this gentleman any time in the future.

Next up: Smithbw

Need I say more? This fine BOTL reputation proceeds him to every end of the cigar community. I must admit I tried to get one up on him but to no avail. He sneaks three little power packed bombs into the trade making me feel ashamed for even thinking I could get one by him. Maybe I will be able to catch him off gaurd one of these days.

Lastly: Coma-one

Unfortunally or maybe fortunally I haven't recieved this BOTL package yet but if it is anything like the other two BOTL then I will be doing another trade soon to try and get some more room in the dors.

Woo-Hooo!

Nothing like trading fine cigars with a grand BOTL that appreciates them.

BTW - As I recall our trade was for 4 not 7 which you sent =)

Regards,

Coma-One package FOUND!

Well after much berating of the family about a possible misplaced package I did a sherlock holmes and found that my mail person thought that it must have been an easter egg and hid it.LOL All the wonderful treasures are safely tucked away into a special place awaiting a good foot warming. Thank you Albert for your genersoity I didn't even come close.

Once again why do I even try?
