Amazing Roham!!!

Ho Ho Ho! Merrry Christmas Roham!

There are some on the board who would call you a bad boy Roham! But don't worry Santa knows better than that. I understand that you have an slight affection for the work of Leon Jimmenes and for the fine cigars of Cuesta Rey and La Aura. Well those are mighty fine smokes to be sure! I can load up my sleigh with just about anything! But what else do you like? What other adventures in cigars do you prefer? I am certain you have at least a few. I am sure you have something in mind that would keep you warm on those cold Canadian nights. Canada! Got to love it! But I sure hope that I can get that stuff over the border. I would hate to in convenience those rascle raindeer, especially poor Rudolf. It would be terrible if I had to cram a package up his little reindeer end just to get it there. His nose might explode! I am short on KY jelly and have no light bulbs on hand. Ho Ho Ho! Poor Rudolf! Well I hope to hear from you soon and don't forget to have a merry christmas Roham!

Cold Canadian nights .... sounds like someone has been reading the back of a bottle of Yukon Jack or something.

Yukon Jack is a taste born of hoary nights, when lonely men struggled to keep their fires lit and cabins warm....

Yeah, if that's not gay.

Santa does know all!!! I love those cigars, but I also like the Padilla Miami cigars, especially the old Miami 8/11's. Actually, I smoke those all the time:smiley9: What are Santas favourite cigars??? I'd love to try some of them!!!! But I swear I'm not smoking anything if they have any "reindeer treats" anywhere on them!:smiley5:

HO HO HO Roham, well because of the frigid air and Roudolf's nose was not working properly, I guess I need to put the package in the post. At least I don't have to pack the back end of poor Roudolf! Well what do ya know! The postal people were trying to pull a fast one on me and said deliver confirmation was a giant hoax in Canada. Well what do you do? I guess I will have to give you the custom's number instead. HO HO HO!

I guess you could say it's on it's way.... good luck stuffing it in your reindeer, ahem... I mean stocking.

Customs Declaration and Dispatch note number.

Have a Merrrrrrrry Christmas Roham. HO HO HO!

Santa, you can call 1800 ASK USPS, and they can do some minor tracking for you...not sure if it will help, but it is worth a shot.

Keith

Actually, after a little digging, try this number...just don't tell them who you got it from, just tell them you have a friend in the Post Office. (202) 555-5551

Unfortunately due to the enormous amount of mail there is no possibility of a trace, unless they give a special number for the hold. In which case I could take care of that asap. But unfortunately, even with the number on the customs bill, they can't and won't do anything. That SUCKS!:smiley7:

unfortunately, without insurance, we are actually bound by law to NOT pay out.

BTW, you aren't so secret any more SANTA:smiley2:

I guess you could say that the "secret" part is canned. I at least pm'd Roham with the news. Let's hope it is not too long delayed. The USPS website talks about issuing a special number in connection to the hold 30 to 45 days after it has been received. But who knows? I was openly candid about what i was sending and they should duly take note of it. All I can do is wait and see.

Yeah, unfortunately, the policy is that you have to wait a minimum of 30 days before filing anything...wish I had a better answer than that, but it is what it is, and I can't change that.

Sorry

2009/12/26 10:31 VANCOUVER International item arrived in Canada and will be reviewed by Customs

Customs does it again! If not my country-- yours too! I hope that the Canadian customs will not have your package as long as the USA did . Perhaps we should shoot for an EASTER TIME delivery. :smiley7: Roham, have a happy new year, and perhaps the next time I try to send to Canada I will do things MUCH differently. Roger.:smiley9:

When they get done, do you think the Customs guys will kind enough to post their review in the Reviews Forum so we can see what they thought of your cigars? :smiley5:

Oh Roger, er, Secret Santa!! The package arrived and man.... If I could photoshop, I would photoshop some googly eyes onto my head, which wouldn't even begin to express how surprised and blown away I am!!!

Damn!! That wasnt a box, it was a bloody suitcase!!! And I spent all christmas staying away from the delectable delights until your package arrived! Some of those goodies look damn good, and home made!(Something which I rarely taste nowadays)!!! Even a Stained glasss ashtray! And an armada of smokes?! Damn roger! You went above and beyond, and even though it was a little late, it made it all the better! I needed that to bump this years christmas rating up a notch or two!

I owe ya man, and it all looks amazing! At a loss for more words!!!

PS: One of the panes of glass is cracked. Any advise? I have it displayed on my window sill now! Looks wicked!
