    Ok here's what I will do.


    Take 36 D-Long Cohiba Maduro 5 Secreto 2008 $7.87 for #44 Partagas Serie D No.4 $7.48

    Take #26 D-Long Bolivar Simones RE Canada Nov 07 for #45 Padron 1926 #6 $12.53

    Take #34 34 C-Big Vegas Robaina Unicos 2008 $7.60 for #46 Rocky Patel Vintage 92 Torpedo $7.86 (That's taking the 3 lowest values in the comparison shopper and averaging a price.)

    If this works let me know.

    Accepted, thanks. I didn't think the US$ would lose so much value in two weeks! Good thing I didn't post starting prices!

    Please let me know your choices for squares.

    I know this is a starter pass, but I wanted to throw this out there. In all the passes I have been in, you must match or exceed the price point of the take.(as you're rule 2 states) Just wanted first timers know if they decide to join another pass. This rule is usual strictly enforced.

    I don't think the Cohiba Maduro for the Partagas Serie D No.4 was a good trade, but I should have chimed before now.

    When using the price comparison, do you use the single, box price, 25 or 50?

    I have absolutely no problem switching that particular cigar out for you if it concerns you man. I haven't shipped yet. I know the pass leader has the final say but I don't want any other pass member to feel slighted by my puts either. Like I said before in previous passes I have been involved in th variety for variety (ie. ISOM for ISOM) rule has also been strictly enforced and I was attempting to keep in line with that more than exceeding the price. I changed out other for domestic cigars that are more in line with the price rule so if that would please the other pass members more than the Partagas I would be more than happy to do that.

    No, I am good with the trade, and its was approved by the pass leader. I just wanted to point out that these trades are the exception not the rule.

    How far back do we go in price before it's not ok?

    Agreed but conversely how far forward? I plan on changing it out because in my eyes whether the pass leader accepts it or not if even one pass participant feels it's not fair then it's not. The pass is for everyone to enjoy and it ruins the enjoyment if someone is left with the feeling that something was not fair. It is my responsibility as an older member of the pass to help insure that everyone feels good about the pass. I do agree however that you should have spoken up a little sooner however I should have posted my P&T's in a more timely fashion as well so NHNF.

    Simple, when the pass host denies the trade.
