Well, again, I hope he is alright, but if he doesn't get his info out to me today, then he's gonna have to sit out of this pass. The box goes out tomorrow afternoon and heading your way CC.

I received the package today.
Takes:
Vegas Robaina Unicos
Opus X Perfecxion X
Padron 1926 #6
Puts:
San Cristobal de la Habana La Fuerza
Ashton VSG Torpedo
Davidoff Millennium Blend Robusto
Uh, the set up you have here won't work, the cigars were pretty dried out as they are not in plastic bags and the box doesn't seal good enough to hold humidity even though you had one of those Fuente humipacks in there.
I placed all the cigars in individual baggies and put the whole package in one large freezer sized zip lock bag, added a few extra small cigar baggies, replaced your cigar box with a Rubbermaid container (which took 3/4 of a pound off the weight of the package) AND ADDED A HUMIDIFICATION UNIT which I'll need you to send back to me when the pass makes it back to you along with my Rubbermaid container.
Numbering each individual cigar might have been a good idea but I didn't really feel like doing that......
LMFAO, what's with the "packing" material? It looks like you emptied your trash can
Tommy said he put in a DC Maximus #5 but it must have been a DC Maximus #4 because there are now TWO #4s and only one #5 and the pass started with one of each. I also identifed the Fonseca as a Delicias and the Partagas as a Corona and the Padron 1926 Natural is a #2.
Package will go out tomorrow to rpcky16 in L.L. Bean country)

Thanks Bill for repackaging. I thought the Fuente Humidipak would do its job, but I guess not. As for the wrapping, I thought about bubble wrap, but figured wrapping that could change easily by adding or taking away was in general more effective. I'll definitely know next time to roll with the tupperware and humidification device. I will certainly send it back to you as soon as I get it back. Thanks again Bill for helping me out.
And beautiful puts/takes

You certainlly had the right idea with the packing, as the pass contents increase in volume, the passers just remove some of the packing. I just had to bust your stones with your choice of the "packing"
The humi pack might have worked in a Rubbermaid/Tupperware container but that box just wasn't airtight enough and again, it added an extra 12 ounces which increases the postage rate. I wasn't sure how much life the humi pack had left in it so I didn't want to take the chance because as I mentioned, the cigars seems kinda dry.
It would have been one thing if you had a pass with mostly Drew Estates products
