For the box pass, post your takes and puts here. It's all singles, try to keep the ones with no cello in its own bag.

This sounds great to me. Count me in.
If you are thinking blind box there is a place that does them in many forms. Be it completely blind by price or by brand. I just did 3 separate buys. Padron for $109, DTT for $49, & Tat for $49. The return was well more then the cost and was almost all premiums. If you want more info and a list of what was received for the $$$ shoot me a message. |

I'll be putting up the blind review pass in a few days. Late on getting it up this year but new job got in the way and I wanted to wait till the other box pass got moving so I didn't steal participants. |

Just sign up jeebs we gon figure it out
I think what Iām gathering is donāt be selfish and grab 2 of the 5 of good shtuff If theyās a 5 of limited edition super duper premium Grab 1.
Also grab one of the other variant of super duper nice shtuff
I have no clue buddy I think cheno is just saying letās be civilized gentleman. (Which Iām not but I can act right)
Either way I like this kinda shtuff |

Don't take more than one of the same cigar if there are multiples. In the past there is often a "window of approval" where the takes and puts are subject to review before sending on to the next recipient. This works to keep exchanges on par with each other. Rare out, rare in, etc. |

Rare out, rare in, etc. Yes! This is what I mean, if there are 5 of the same cigars, only take 1 of that specific cigar. Of course you can take multiple cigars just as long as it's not all the same exact cigar so someone else can get to try something special too! |

I'm in as long as I can taste test the cigars before choosing.
Also in because it would be poor form to run a round 2 on the other pass, and Tele will be stuck with his initiator bag. Definitely not a strictly prohibited host bag tho |

36. Author: jeebling | Date: Sat, 4/13/2024, 10:15PM EST | |
I love that cigar rest. But to be honest, I remove the chin guard and use the double prong mounting studs to hold the cigar nub. It works perfectly and I get few ashes in my chin hair even without the chin guard. I recommend using it this way. |
37. Author: LeeBot | Date: Sat, 4/13/2024, 10:46PM EST | |
Yeah, I used my holder when I was in N.C., and it was perfect. I usually just improvise and grab a couple of sticks or something else jerrymandered and put the cigar on them. The holder was perfect and perfectly portable. |

When I opened the box, it looked like an infinite amount of seegars! Bags and bags of good lookinā cigars!

Picked out some cigars and ran the Takes and possible Puts with Captain Greg. Got the tentative approval but still gotta locate where all of the cigars are, Iāll post up for everyoneās review. |

Going down to our locker today. Mebbe pull a few more seegars. I normally donāt call people out and seriously didnāt want to say this but when I opened up the box, there wasnāt a Host Bag! OMG! Obviously Greg forgot to put one in. Need to fix thatā¦. |

There is no room for a host bag in there, I checked and it just wouldn't fit. The box is too full. |

Youāre partially right but even with the finger bags for Robert, I figured out a way to rearrange / repack the box to give it a little more room. Mind you, not a whole lot but enough for me to start something. Like a snowball rolling downhill, my small contribution will (hopefully) grow as the pass moves along. |
