Like I said, put me down for a 5er at least.

I'd be in.
Sounds good. I'll pull some more info together this weekend. Sounds like we're good for a half box at least.

If there's room I wouldnt' mind an opportunity to participate, and you'd take a chance on someone who has yet to complete a trade through this forum.

I just got off the phone with John of Smokes On Burdick. Here's the deal:
First, he said that they're a nice mellow medium bodied smoke, with just a hint of spiciness & earthyness, FWIW.
Prices:
7x50 Churchill ~ $280/50 + Shipping
6x52 Torpedo ~ $312/50 + Shipping
6x54 Toro Grande ~ $280/50 + Shipping
5x50 Robusto ~ $225200/50 + Shipping ($4.50$4.00/smoke + $8.00/6peeps = $1.33)
So, what size are we thinking? Personally, I'd be interested in the Toro (votes:III ), or the Robusto (votes:IIII )
Looks like we'll go with the Robusto.
Here's who's down sofar (correct me if I'm wrong...)

That works out to a complete box. Let me know if you want to change your quantity. I'll call today, get their shipping prices, and tally up some costs. Also, I'd prefer a money order. PM me if this is a problem. I need addresses too.
Had to update the prices, as the vendor billed me a lesser amount than the quote he gave me. Those guys.:smiley9: Anyway, for those who already sent payment, I can send you a cash refund, or $6.33 or $3.83 (10 or 5 sticks respectively), or I can send along a comparable priced smoke. You choose.
Thanks,
Will
If it ends up being the low side (30) I can take another 5 if needed.
-Andrew
Toro has been my favorite size smoke recently so that would be my vote also
-Andrew
I'm flexible as well -- I could do a 5 or 10. Slight preference for the robusto based on typical time constraints for smoking.
I like robusto.
When would y'all like to pull the trigger on this? I'm heading to Cape Cod with the wife, kid and dogs for a week but will be back next Saturday afternoon. If need be I can send out a check today or tomorrow morning but after that it'll be a week.
- Andrew
I really appreciate that. I just didn't want to hold anyone else up so I figured I'd at least offer to get funds out today.
I've updated THIS post.
Just an FYI, we don't have to do a full box. They told me once you're over 20 sticks, the discounted rate (posted) is effective. I believe its 10% off.
Thanks,
Will
Ok, I called to setup the order for a full box, not hearing any objections.
I updated the above thread with Click-n-Ship discounted shipping & final prices.
Thanks,
Will
What size did you end up ordering for us? never mind, missed the fist line of the link...MOO...
Got your PM. This will be a great treat for when I get back from the cape.
Thanks again for running this.
- Andrew
Great / terrible news.
My card statment yesterday said $200 instead of $225 for the box.
This means refunds are in order. I updated this link again with the revised info, but the cliff notes are this:
10 = $6.33 refund
5 = $3.83 refund
If you didn't send payment yet, adjust your amount. If you sent payment, I'm offering a cash refund, or a cigar of comparable price.
Thanks,
Will
I got home today and there is still no package from the vendor.:smiley18:
I called and they claim to have sent it Saturday (although I thought they said it would go out monday....)
I'll keep you guys posted.
Will
