Here is her response, as close as I can paraphrase it:

Well then, since you don't have that many boxes, that means you can shove them all up your ..... as they will fit better now.:r
If a man speaks in the forest and his wife is no where around to hear him...is he still wrong??

If we are about to herf, then I have boxes of cigars that there are still enough of to be in the boxes. If I were to sell or trade them, they would have to be full. If we are talking about my favorites, then it doesn't matter how many are left if I like them enough to be always buying more, there will always be a box.

I keep all cigars in the box they came in when I bought them . If there is 5 left they stay in the box and still take up a box space . Only after they move to the singles tray does the box go away , helps with keeping box codes straight . His way seems very technical but I do see where he is coming from . :ss

My wife responded slightly different than just yes.

Her answer was:

ALWAYS!

She says the only time I have been right is any time I realize I am wrong.

Re: When do you own a box?
 
I see Addiction's point, though it is kinda splitting hairs. I always just make it clear by using the word full, like:

"I want a FULL CAB of Tat Verocu East Side."

But I always estimate when I'm just figuring things out in my head or talking to people. I might say "I have like 4 boxes WORTH of Padilla Signature 1932s," meaning around 100 sticks--even though they were purchased in 5, 10, and 20-packs and not actual full factory boxes!

:r :r

Mr. Blueface, sir, I'd love to herf with your wife. Your attendance is optional. :D

Marianne said it best, nobody here is playing with a full box.

Threads like this remind me why I love this place.

Example:
I had a friend stop by the day before Christmas and say he ran out of time buying a box of CCs for a friend. It was way beyond too late to order online. He asked if he could buy a box of something special for his friend?

I told him, "Sorry, I have no boxes!!! Perhaps I could put a box together?"

Did he walk away with a box of really nice cigars? Yes!

Were they all the same marca? No!

I owned no boxes!!!

Re: When do you own a box?
 
My theory is, if you bought the full box, you own it. Does not matter how many you have smoked.

For example, he has 5 full intact boxes of Cohiba Reservas, and 1 open box.

Now MOST of us would say he has 6 boxes, but Addiction is VERY specific in his wording and says he only has 5 boxes.

Is his math or wording correct?

If his wording is true, then I only have 3 boxes.

I tried using that Fuzzy Math with my wife http://www.internationalcigarclub.co...n_rolleyes.gifhttp://www.internationalcigarclub.co...n_rolleyes.gifhttp://www.internationalcigarclub.co...n_rolleyes.gif
Yeah, she didn't buy it.

So, if I open a PSD4 box and consume 1 or 2 cigars, do I still have a box?

Once it's empty, it's just a box.
For me, it's time to get another box once the first one comes out. That way the others are getting ready for when the open box is getting smoked.
I'm not sure what MOBD is talking about, but if it's a train full of cigars, I get to cherry pick. I called it first. :tu

If I have a box of 25 cigars and I take one out I have a partial box of cigars, but if my wife sees me take the first cigar out of the box I have a question; "and when did you buy that one!":su

Re: When do you own a box?
 
I fully admit Bryan is right if you are counting boxes in terms of the ability to sell.
For me, who does not intend to sell partial boxes, if I purchase and smoke a few out of the box, I still consider myself having a box.

Just my opinion

For me: (ok I may be splitting hairs here)

I have a full box until it has been opened.

I have a partial box until I move the remaining gars to the singles drawer.
