Gaetano, rest assured you'll have your chance soon. I know I can't say much because it was a PIF after all, but I kinda feel let down that he didn't post them. Almost feels like a waste of good sticks. But, In the spirit of Pay it Forward, I gave him the sticks in good conscience not expecting anything in return, and I should be happy with that.

I arrived home this afternoon and found my mailbox in absolute shambles...it turns out that Johnnie420 decided to drop an absolute bomb on me! Below is a list of his weaponry (please correct me): NC AF Hemingway Oliva Serie V robusto Black Pearl torpedo Gurkha (not sure) 5 Vegas Gold Torpedo Peterson (not sure) Padron (not sure) AF Anejo #49 CC Partagas Montecristo H. Upmann Not sure Thank you so much for such a generous package! Here is a picture of the damage: http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p77/The_Crowder/Johnnie420_PIF.jpg

TC, the CC not sure looks like a Partagas Culebra, they are a bit odd looking, but smoke well. You might feel a little odd lighting one up on poker night with the guys, but still a good smoke.

Definitely looks like 1/3 of a Culebra. Nice PIF Johnnie. |

Great job Johnnie! I would have answered your mooch but I have been on the receiving end of too many of your smokes! (That's not to say I don't want anymore though  )

Johnnie, master of PIF-fu, strikes with grace and power... Very well played, Sir!
So many cigars, so little time...

Glad you like the smokes bud, enjoy em. Yes sir it is a Culebra. Like YH said it looks corny but smokes great. I've bought two boxes and only have one stick left.

You'll be getting some more soon. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on the Edmundos and talked myself into '02 Diplo #4 also.

I am just wondering what tends to be the best service to send them with? Fedex, DHL, UPS, or USPS? I am going to be doing my first PIF, so I am looking for some advice from the experienced PIFR's. I have a lot of prepaid DHL overnight envelopes that I bought from costco. I am assuming as long as I pack them in tubes or some good wrapping they will be alright. Not worth sacrficing a few saved bucks for trashed smokes. Thanks for any responses. Matt

I recently lost two packages in the mail after about a year of trading with the USPS. One box coming my way was lost with 5 Short Stories and some Pepin stuff. My outgoing box with 7 illusione cg4's was lost... Usually that is the preferred route though. |

I'll be sending my first pif to the US from Canada and there will be a Cuban or two in there. Is regular mail or priority post the best way to get them there safely? What should I do about keeping them humidified? Sorry about the questions, but I just want them to get there safe. |
