I just pop them into a regular #10 sized envelope. It's kinda tight, but I've found if you place the envelope with the cigars in it on a strong flat surface (like the kitchen table) and apply even pressure and pressing down fairly firmly, the flap will stick pretty well. No bubble wrap or nothing - just make sure you tightly pack them in there. I follow it up with a bit of tape to keep it from popping open... Make sure you put "FRAGILE" on the outside of the envelope so those postal bastids don't mishandle it and ruin the cigars...

I prefer shipping my cigars in Tampax tubos.

golly...thanks for all the great advice....i thought maybe using some kleenex wrapped around the cigars would help....

DC means "Diamond Crown" (cigars).

Although it could also mean "distribution center" or"District of Colombia" among others. But I think in this case it was Diamond Crown. DC's....a foolishly expensive cigar. Yeah, they taste good but I cringe when I have to shell out $20 plus for a cigar.

Which reminds me....I need to get a few Fuente Anejo Sharks for the holidays. Anyone know of "the best price around"?

You guys are joking. Right?

Mailing cigars in an envelope?

You've got to be kidding. Ggiese...come on now. Really? A friggin' envelope?

Er.....naw....never mind. I'd stick to free Priority Mail boxes at the PO or at least some other ridgid box.

How can you do that? You've got to be kidding. An envelope?

Really? I know what happened! Scroto has kidnapped Ggiese and is posing as him on this board in an attempt to mislead other members!

OK Scotty...where's George?
