t_evan50: lcpleel: Diamondog: lilwing88: Goldy:If there is a herf-a-dor foam insert that is in the box and is not being used can someone cut it and place it on the ends of the herf? I think these things are getting damaged from sliding back and forth and hitting the hard palstic walls. I'll add in some extra bubble wrap for good measure...... I proposed my takes/puts to Goldy and he wanted me to run it past the rest of you for approval. Take: AF Anejo Shark Puts: Tat The Face and Ashton VSG Illusion I know that the VSG wasn't on the OG list, so if it's not cool, I understand. I believe the Tat Face is considered a rare(r) stick and rare Tats are listed so I don't think the VSG is necssary if you are taking 1 Anejo, IMO I think a one for one is good on those.sounds good to me. Now if I can just get Cank to leave it in there.

I for sure would have taken it but since you said you wanted it Ill leave it in there for ya ! I have plenty of cigars that I won't get to for a long time thanks to you guys :-)

Goldy:Would anyone be interested in an uber premium pass? I was thinking today of all the uber premiums I want to try but can't shell out the cash so I think a pass like this would give BORKS a good opportunity to try that one brand that they have been dying to try. Due to the investment needed to start a pass like this I would like to limit it to folks with +200 posts unless you guys think thats unfair. Its hard to put a price limit on a pass like this because the MSRP is varried but I think in general we should be looking at $20 plus sticks. I like what sirfoster has done with his pass and allowed everyone to record their takes and puts on the forum because it adds a element of suspense waiting to see if the stick you have your eye on lasts till your turn. If you guys want to participate just shoot me a PM and I'll make a list. Listed below are the sticks I was thinking of starting the pass with. Opus X GOF Strativarious (3) Camacho PE (2) Partagas Serie No 4 MOW Armada AF Shark Here is the pass list in geographic clockwise order. Let me know if there are issues.

When shipping the pass please get a tracking number so we all know where it is. Post all your takes and puts so we call drool over the package.
xmacro:Only 3 people standing between me and all those beautiful sticks - the suspense is killing me!!
t_evan50:Did this make it to you Sniper???
The Sniper: xmacro:Only 3 people standing between me and all those beautiful sticks - the suspense is killing me!! Anything in the current inventory that you've got your heart set on xmacro? If so, make sure to let me know! t_evan50:Did this make it to you Sniper???Very possible - Ive been away from the house due to work since Monday. Will be headed home tomorrow, and will get this taken care of and out the door to the next recipient on Saturday. Sorry for the delay fellas. :-(
Vulchor:Ohhh boyyyyy, Im up mighty soon. Macro, PM me yoru addy buddy unless its in the box, I dont wanna keep the few behind me in line waiting.
The Sniper:OK fellas, and Im addressing the guys left behind me on the pass, because this affects you directly. We've got an issue and I need some input. One of the sticks, a Padron '26, is pretty tore up in the foot, to the point where it resembles a shaggy. I PM'd Goldy about this a couple days ago, but have gotten no response - I know his trade is something having to do with geology, and he has a tendency to disappear into the wilderness for extended periods of time. We have options here gents. I can.... 1) Let the Padron '26 ride as-is 2) Replace the '26 with a Padron '64 (which is not in cello as the '26 was not, and Im afraid it will suffer the same fate) 3) Replace the '26 with an Avo 787 4) Replace the '26 with a AF Hemingway Between the Lines 5) Replace the '26 with a Camacho PE, or 6) Just remove the stick from the pass and call it good. If I hear from Goldy he will of course have final say since it IS his pass. Otherwise, all opinions are welcomed, but the ones coming from the guys who are still in line to receive the pass will be the ones that count, as they have the most to lose or gain. Im going to give this until Wed night, and then the pass is going to ship out to ejenne87 on Thursday if there are no objections. Thanks in advance for your help guys. Ready - GO!
Diamondog: lilwing88:Got it. Everything appears in order. Don't know if it was noted before, but the Padron Anny had some significant damage to the foot and cap..... Figuring out my takes/puts with Goldy. Hope to have it out tomorrow (Fri). This is several sticks that have been damaged in this pass, the packing on this thing needs to be re-thought...is it feasable to give the contents (cigars) a wrap in bubble wrap and set in the herf?

kingjk729:That Padron was pretty gnarled up when I got the package and think it was mentioned prior to this ..... I'd say send it along as is since its been addressed already.
Diamondog:Although this thing is passed me and I am very disappointed to see the Padron I put in get damaged like this, for the integrity of the pass we should be sticking to the laid out list...
