just received my sampler from sammis! Lot's of stuff I've heard good things about and even more that I've never seen before. This should be fun! Thanks!

I finally got approved to post even though I joined a few days ago. My intro post was just submitted and should be posted shortly.

Waiting to hear back from FunkyCold5. He said he's busy, which is understandable. But I'm giddy like a school girl on prom night. Can't wait!

Deal in the works with arodgers. Anyone know the best way to go for shipping to an APO?

I've placed several orders from CI and I don't think they do anything special when they ship. I've had orders get here as fast as 4 days, and others that took 3 weeks so if you can include some kind of humidity pack with them it might be a good idea. It was 126F here today...

One thing I have noticed is CI never puts "cigars" or "tobacco" on the customs declaration. Every order from them just says "literature and monthly pamplets".

Looking forward to working with you. Thanks again!

Good deal. I asked about your intro post, because this thread is for newbies looking to be a member of this community rather than a "discount bin" for cigars.

Just got my package from mrtr33. To say I'm overwhelmed is an understatement. First off I'm pretty sure he over-spent, but regardless, the value of this package is the amazing variety of things I've either never seen or never noticed before. And I can't wait to compare tasting notes with a more experienced cigar smoker. A huge thumbs-up and thanks! I think I will soon be...

I got my sticks today. All arrived in good condition. So many to choose from, I don't know where to begin! I'm sure I'll have questions once I begin to figure out what's what. Thank you very much, FunkyCold5!

P.S. - You have really neat handwriting.

Glad it made it there in good shape. The handwriting goes to my GF. My handwriting is more in the lines of a 5th grader, LOL.
