Box Pass 2023 Signup

This sounds like a fun and interesting concept. Been smoking pipe and cigars for 20 years but new to the pipe forums so I’ll see you guys next time around hopefully. I run a cigar page and bombs (sending a pack of cigars to a random person) is quite common. Now I’m thinking of a cigar box for that page. I’m liking the rules so far. I hope you guys have success.

Man, a whole box full of premium cigars would cost a fortune, I would think. I like the idea of just bombing someone like that. Very cool idea... and generous.

The box is shaping up nicely, we have some 1Q, a LOT of Middletons Cherry, Mixture 79, and several bags of Smokers Pride vanilla cavendish.

OKAY, I’M IN! CONSIDER IT STOLEN!!!

 

[BarrelProof]

There's not really any of those things going in the box, Its actually shaping up to be a killer box. I'm not going to divulge any contents until it’s ready to ship though.

I’m back out!

In order to expedite things, could one not take out the tobacco(s) which he wishes to sample, replace what you took with your own contribution and then send the box on down the line?

Yep. For some reason it doesn't occur to folks to do that.

There's a lot of that here as well.

I think that they've said that the problem last time, was over-generosity. Someone would smoke a few bowls out of several different blends, and then replace it with several different blends, which made the box HUGE. Well... that, and someone stealing the whole box. I guess someone has to balance out all of the good on here with huge acts of bad, ha ha.

I can certainly understand the desire to be generous. Reading through the posts about past experiences with delays, etc., I have the feeling that upon receipt of the box, I could quickly review the contents, take out what I wanted, replace what I took and have the box back in the mail off to the next recipient in the same day.

You're just bragging... ha ha. JK

Well...yeah. That's the way it's supposed to work.
But there's always people who think they're special.

Haha, I'll make one-bowl baggies of anything I want to try, and keep the train moving. I'll even resist the urge to add a bag of tea leaves marked "@cosmicfolklore's homegrown."

(More seriously, I've had Cosmic's homegrown and it's excellent)

Yeh, but if he doesn’t add the aged selection of every single Esoterica blends that I’m sending…. We know who is holding out on da box, ha ha. JK

Stone Haven? Never heard of it...

 

[blackpowderpiper]

You know what? This sounds like fun. Count me in. Information forthcoming.

 

[AroEnglish]

Yeah I’ve been tracking this thread and I think I need to jump in on this.

 

[Pipeoff]

I will only take out the heavy stuff so I can cheap out on the postage, the wife only gives me lunch money since pad & tad became my chief malady. Also place me near the top of the list so I don’t Need to rent a forklift !

 

[captainsousie]

I'm in if you'll have me (after you've read my post in the other thread that is).

EDIT: I guess I'm not allowed as no P.O. boxes are accepted and we've got a bad case of porch pirates in my area. I'd give my home address too as insurance but I'd rather not be the one who lost it because of assholes out of my control.

I do wish that my challenge to banning PO boxes had been answered as, like I said I would have been willing to provide a home address as well because I have problems in my area with people messing with packages but so it goes. I'm just being cranky and hurt...which honestly affects nobody but me. I'll just sit here being Eeyore Poor me, pour me...

to the box pass.

What none is you realize is the box is composed of 15 different years of Clan, a few pouches of Captain Monochromatic and a pound of Mixture 79, couple of corn cob pipes and a package of pipe cleaners from the fellow that runs them through his washing machine with the weekly load of underwear.
