Cleaning out my humidors...

Reply from: Tom S.
Date: 17 Apr, 00:07
Try to make some room and I have about 20 sticks they I'd like to unload.

Unfortunately, they've already been de-celloed, but if that's not a problem,
I'll send them out.

Also, do we still have the "Newbie Packs" from a few years back?

What I have a Padilla Obsidian and La Aurora Maduro Robustos.

Remove the dots from my address to "mooch"! :~)

Send them to someone on deployment. I don't have any addys at the moment
but I'm sure someone here must. Maybe Mary knows someone.

I like your idea but isn't it a damn shame there are no newbies to get
them.

Mary already emailed me.

My only concern is, like I said, they have the cello off, so I'm not sure
how well they'll make a 10,000 mile journey at this time of year.

Put them in a ziplock, pack 'em in newspaper or popcorn and a priority
mail box and they'll be fine.

I recently bought a bunch of 3 finger cigar baggies which help a lot.
Combined with priority mail; beef jerky & pop-tarts for insulation and
a couple of cool-paks - they usually arrive fresh as a daisy! If only
it weren't so expensive to ship a cooler - likewise golf clubs
<SIGH> ,,, maybe my lottery numbers will win <G>. thanks guys, and
get me more addys over there. Mary ;-)

My technique:

* Double-bag the cigars.
* Moisten a paper towel.
* Put the towel and the double-bag into a 3rd bag.

Lasts a good long time.

I usually wrap uncelloed sticks in saran wrap, and then put them in
baggie. I've done this with box passes and never had a stick damaged. YMMV

"Cleaning out my humidors" results in an embarrassing, paltry 20 sticks!?
What have you in those humidors, 500 each of three favorite sticks? You
are clearly not holding up your end.

A good swap being necessary to the continuation of the group, the right of
the ASCer to mooch shall not be infringed.

Thas' hoekay...as long as it only LOOKS like a mooch, and it's not a fully
automatic mooch.

No, not 500 of each, but I have about 500 total, of which there WERE about
20-30 that just didn't get my juices flowing.

If you need to augment your stash, I could send you a few. :~)
