2015 Box Pass Thread

[ravenwolf]

Hi everyone. I only participate sporadically (though I usually check the forums each day) - but I was actually the recipient of an entire Coleman cooler full of tobacco blends, usually a couple ounces per bag. If the box should happen to run low, I would love to give back the forums by supercharging the snot out of the box. I will have to look to see what the requirements are for becoming a box pass member.
It was a windfall from an old friend that decided he was happier with cigars overall. He has the money and passion to go through a box of nice sticks in a week that I just can't compare with, haha.
So yeah, boat load of stuff here that I would happily donate to the cause.

I should be breaching the old 'blockade' in a day or so with everyones orders for UI so I will chuck in a few other plugs for you guys to sample!

Where has dan been? Haven't seen his comical posts in a while...

I'm here, Shane. Just busy with work. As long as things are running smoothly, there's no need for my snarky comments.

So all that had went how was the New York pipe show I have always wanted to go to one but I don't think Pittsburgh has many if any. I'm guessing I would have better luck in Richmond va.

I get to go to the west coast pipe show this year; my first.
I am very excited!

Shane, unfortunately, it looks like we missed the window on the Richmond pipe show. According to a newsletter that C.O.R.P.S. (the Richmond pipe club) put out last year, they won't be hosting an annual show any longer. Their website does have a good list of the pipe shows scheduled around the country, if you're looking for the next nearest.

 

[shanelktown]

Very good. The reason richmond is of interest is I have family there and can always visit while getting a chance to check out a pipe show. Bummer they will no longer have one.

Here's the thread that talked about it: http://pipesmagazine.com/forums/topic/richmond-va-corps-news#post-667477
Hopefully after a year or two off they'll get the itch and bring it back. I live a little over an hour away from Richmond so it would be nice to have a pipe show that close again.

I will be ready next week to hand off. Should I just coordinate with Defargin since we are meeting up in person?

 

[woodsroad]

Let's be sure to go through the regular handoff protocol, then just do the FTF thing. Be sure to post photos if your meetup!

 

[wyfbane]

That is pretty awesome that you get to meet up. I would love to meet up with some forum members.
Nice to hang out and have a smoke and a scotch.
=D

 

[shanelktown]

Yes please follow protocol so by 2027 The box will still be rolling.

 

[pipebaum81]

It's IS really cool that the box can be transfered in person. I am with wyfbane on wanting to meet more forum folks. It's a personal goal of 2015.

Yeah I had a blast meeting Dan and many others at the NY Pipe show.

Dave,
I'm good to meet most anytime time next week, with the exception of Wednesday nights . Should we meet in Hiram at that same place?

 

[shaintiques]

Defargin actually pipe club in Hiram is Tuesday evening. Could you come then?

 

[wyfbane]

7 Pages! Woot!

 

[daimyo]
