    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. ;)

    Good thing you said something cause I think that is the only one in the pass that I don't already have. 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 :-)

    Generous of you but it really defeats the purpose of this pass...

    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

    Much thanks for the offer, but I'll wait; nothing I really "gotta have", but just a bunch of stuff I'd like :)

    OK, got home from my road trip to find the uber premium pass waiting on me.

    Takes: AF Anejo and Ashton ESG.

    Puts: Opus X & God of Fire Carlito Tubo.

    Got home too late to get it back in the mail today, but it will go out Monday to ejenne87. Evan, please pm me your addy - for some reason your full addy didnt make it onto the address sheet.

    GOLDY - PM TO YOU. Slight issue that requires your attention ASAP O Lord & Master Of The Uber Premium Pass.

  • VulchorVulchor Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 4,176
    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.

    Let me get your address too, Vulch. I don't think I have it anywhere
  • VulchorVulchor Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 4,176
    PM incoming buddy.
  • The SniperThe Sniper Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 3,910
    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!

    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?


    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.

    Correct you are sir, thanks for calling my attention to previous posts. Padron '26 rides on, pass back in the mail manana.

  • VulchorVulchor Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 4,176
    May I take it as it is and replace with 2 Padilla Obsidian's and a Baccarrat?
  • DiamondogDiamondog Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 4,169
    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...
