WHO WANTS FREE CIGARS?

[ggiese]

While Mark's PIF is in transit, I thought I'd propose that it is time to consider changing the dollar definition of 'classy' smokes for those that need it. $3-$8 smokes in 2006 are not the same as $3-$8 cigars five years later, particularly after S-CHIP. $5-$12 seems more in-line with what the examples of 'classy' smokes actually cost these days at on-line vendors ...

... and Paddy, you would have felt right at home at QSH. The only fucking Canuck there kept winning the draws. :-)

I dunno - I gotta think that someone that would think a "classy" cigar would cost $3 is a low-brow, knuckledragging fool. But I'm very willing to be surprised by something that catches me totally off guard. And (surprisingly) I have occasionally found some "jewels" amongst the dung at CI in their "blowout" specials (example: Alec Bradley Pryme a few years back). So - I'm not closing the door to that potential opportunity

Bottom line - I get that times are tough, but I think it's possible to save up your sheckels and pick up some very nice smokes in the "classy" range (maybe not $3, but still...) without breaking the bank. Someone that is not dragging their knuckles and has a normal forehead has enough sense to well reason their choices for the person their "passing it forward" to, even if it's at the low-end of the range.

Any person that would think it appropriate to "gift" something that was their bargain basement, bottom of the barrel crap they picked up for $3 needs to rethink their involvement in this thread. So if there's a fool out there thinking it's appropriate to send the same five crap brand $3 cigars as a means of "Paying it Forward"? Well... ...I'd suggest you prepare for the lynch mob carrying pitchforks and torches that's inevitably coming.

I think he was looking to "UP" the anty to $8-$12 sticks, but then again I could be wrong.

Alright Buzz....I'll take 'em.
But listen, I don't want any of those turds you brought home from La Cucaracha.
Anyway's as I had mentioned on another thread I'm trying to get rid of the last of my shit sticks.
This gives me a chance to unload the rest of my RP's and Gurkha to some sap.

[buzz]

The turds are yours Paddy - I'll get them out the door today or tomorrow.

I'm awfully glad you're not looking to send those to me!

That is - except and unless the RP's are Edge's! Then you might be singing my toon! There's a damn good cigar in the lower price range!!! Just so long as you don't send me 5 of 'em - one's enough!



...though I really would not mind having a few of those CI Gurkha "specials" around so that I can give the moochers in my life something when they're whining. That'll fix 'em!

[buzz]

They'll be in route shortly...

Just so you know - you can always send your "swamp monster" castaways to me any time you want, big boy!

What a mooch!

[ggiese]

What a mooch!

Geez... A guy bums a coupla cigars off of a brother and he's labeled a "mooch". Who'd a though?!?

Don't be hatin', buzz - as you well know - one man's "swamp monsters" is another man's gold!. So - do shoot those "swamp monsters" my way.




BTW - I do promise to keep my mooching to a minimum lest I look like Purobrat!

[ashauler]

Hey guys, since I think I've piffed to you both in the past, if you're still aging any of those, uh, special (), toro sized smokes I sent ya.....let's work a deal. I'd like to get at least one back since there appears to be a newblet who might like to review one.

(Being a statistician), I was looking to adjust the original post for inflation of cigar prices.

I certainly didn't have anyone in particular in mind, I just thought to maintain what was in the original post in light of current pricing.

I know... I agreed with you.

[Paddy]

Holy sheep shit Buzz...
Send nothing but the best...When only the best will do
That is one hell of a 5'er.

Hey, Who wants some free cigars

[Paddy]

Anyone…..anyone…..Bueller…..Bueller……
And I thought I had a reputation for sending out primo smokes.
Guess theses RP Mulligan’s will sit in my humidor for awhile longer.
