thats why you dont go doing a trade the day you get here. you learn about the hobby, you learn about quality and craftsmanship and what is coveted etc.


even on cigarpass, a website made for passing cigars around, you dont just go passing cigars around when you first get there . . . there are two major components of a pass/trade i think

knowledge and reputation

you have to KNOW that something is acceptable as a fine or premium cigar or even a decent cigar.

you have to also BE known for knowing that and trading succesfully
