The box is pretty much ready to go ;-)

Well since no one has said anything, I guess I will...
Personally I think your puts and takes are not equal hex.
You TOOK cigars out that are both more rare and expensive than what you PUT back into the pass. I'd say it's mainly the Padron and Opus in question.
From my understanding of the rules, for everything you take out of the pass you must put something back that is of equal value.

Just my friendly two cents.

Whipping Snappers!
Sometimes silence is telling. If no one posts "good job", or "nice puts/takes", etc. I would probably want to PM the pass host...
Sean - what are your thoughts?

Sorry guys, I've just been really busy. I'm gonna have to say that the Torano's are great cigars, but the MSRP's on them do not stand up to the Opus X or the Padron. By all means you can take these, but quantity does not replace quality. The Torano's are certainly par for the course lined up with the Hemingway, no doubt about that though. I have no clue about the REO though since it's new, that very well could be in line with the Padron or Opus.
Those are my thoughts.
Before ending though, thank you for doing some leg work on finding out about a non-listed cigar and what it was, I really appreciate it Hex; that's the only thing I worry about is the list not lining up with the post.
BTW, first post edited to include Paddy 1926 #2 and power ranger edit.

Hence why I asked in the first place..
According to the link Godfather posted above:
Opus xXx ("Power Ranger") $8.75
Hemingway $13.00 (not sure about the size in the pass, got to measure it, so i just picked the most expensive Hemingway)
Padron 1926 No.2 $15.99
TAKE MSRP: $37.74
Torano Tribute 2004 Torpedo $12.00
Torano Signature Collection $6.28
Torano Exodus 1959 Torpedo $5.20
Torano Reserva Selecta Torpedo Maduro: $7.82
Reo Torpedo: $5 (not quite sure about this one so I did a search and found this place: (http://www.bonitasmokeshop.com/reo_cigars.htm)
PUT MSRP: $36.30
Ok so your right, I'm off by a $1.44... I eye balled it last night and didn’t sit down and to the exact math. I'll fix things when I get home tonight.

Thats actually a really good read. I honestly got caught up in the moment of having an Opus and Padron 1926 sitting in front of me and forgot the quantity <> quality part of a pass.Originally Posted by godfather

Hex and I straightened everything out, we're in good shape. So, Hex, just post the final draft of the puts/takes and I'll update the front page and Godfather will be getting ready for some gars by Saturday or Monday.
