New and Improved Newbie Sampler thread!

got my sticks today--they look great. Now the big decision is which one gets sacrificed first.

Received my package today and the trade (if you can call it that) is complete. Holy shit! I did not know that 50 bucks could go so far. KB, I owe you big time. You were tooooooooooo good to me

Any newbies out there should seriously consider trying this sampler thread. It is well worth it. I received some sticks that either I would have overlooked or otherwise never found in my isolated city.

I second that! Cigarsarge really hooked me up with a nice assortment. I'm still trying to work up the nerve to smoke the JdN Antano or the LFD Double ligero.

**cigarsarge** · 01-22-2006, 05:17 PM

OK newbies....Are you scared of trading with the sarge?? Got a nice selection of cigars to send to a newbie. Send me a PM and sample cigars from all over the tobacco growing world.

**cigarsarge** · 01-23-2006, 05:54 PM

Trade Pending with Spocimp.

**Eshaw99** · 01-25-2006, 02:22 PM

Nothing yet. I got a PM of interest, and a promise he would send his end - but nothing yet....

Eric - put me back in the rotation and when Neko is ready someone can pick him up...

**Eshaw99** · 01-26-2006, 09:26 AM

Ok George, I put you back in the rotation. I just kept you in your original spot (like you just got skipped) to keep things easier.

Anyone willing to help out a Canadian Newb? I'm not sure the best method to ship cross border. Anyone with some experience can chime in. My butt still hurts from the duty raping I got from my last parcel shipped UPS. I have just gotten into the whole cigar smoking thing. I just bought a humidor and it is looking pretty barren. My dozen or so cubans need some company

. I have smoked and enjoyed romeo y juliet, a few different types of Cohibas, as well as H.Upmann and Punch. I am looking for a change and have absolutely no idea what to buy.

Anyone wanna help? I am looking to spend ~80USD including shipping for an assortment.

Thanks

-Andrew

I received my newbie sampler today. My experience as a cigar smoker will be enhanced greatly by this fantastic selection. Thanks Eshaw99!

**ukyfan** · 01-27-2006, 08:03 PM

ok, who is up now? i got a little lost since ggiese got skipped. I think I might want to go on and try this. So who wants to help this newbie out?

**cigarsarge** · 01-27-2006, 08:18 PM

Looks like this thing is taking off...Some more FOGs are probably needed.

**spyderman** · 01-27-2006, 08:35 PM

sarge,
i'm not really a fog (yet), but also being from ky, i would be happy to take uk fan, if i'm not stepping on anybody's toes.

That would be up to Eshaw99...Give him a PM.

**Eshaw99** · 01-27-2006, 10:38 PM

I replied to spyderman's PM. Basically what I said was we'd love to have him participate, but before he does we'd like to get to know him a little better first. What I'd like is for spyderman to get some trades under his belt first, so I would encourage members of the board to do a trade or two with him. If it all works out smoothly, we'll see about adding him to the rotation.
