What's In The Mail? - March Edition

[metalheadycigarguy]

I got my 8oz bag of Penzance and tin of Balkan Sobranie today.
While happy to get these two items I'm very disappointed too. The person who packaged up the items decided to staple the self-sealing priority mail box and it poked two holes in the bag of Penzance with a staple. Why??? I guess its a good thing I'm not going to sell it on ebay and its going to be jarred up, but its still irritating because I would have just left it cellared in the bag.

It might be worth it to call the vendor and let them know about this. (Although, if it was a mom-and-pop kind of shop, I don't know if there's any point.)

My latest order was for some 4th Gen 1957 and a Decatur combo rotating pipe stand & tobacco jar. Unfortunately the pipe rack/tobacco jar is on back order. I'm a little steamed 'cuz it indicated "In Stock" when I ordered it. I called and of course no one knows when it will ship & the backorder specialist was not in today. :crying:

[onepyrotec]

He shoots & scores!

Nice haul

 

[mrjerke]

Thanks pyro. Does anyone else cellar Wessex Gold Brick? I'm thinking I need to put it in a sealed jar as the packaging won't suffice. That or smoke it!

 

[voorhees]

mrjerke, how do you order the shirts? That is awesome. So are the pipes.

 

[mrjerke]

Shoot him an email and he'll give you the details. You pay him through paypal. I follow him on instagram, that's how I found the shirt.

 

[mrjerke]

Just received my 2010 Stanwell Pipe of the Year along with 3 tins of Dunhill Flake and a free tin of Stanwell Melange. Thanks P&C!
