Okay, that's it.

After seeing the pics of your backyard, and now THIS, I'm packing up and moving in TOMORROW.

Yeah a few times in the past while I was in Switzerland waaaaaaay outside of the major cities. While out on the east side just outside of Liechtenstein in little places like Buches and Sargans I have found a few shops that had no website and had multiple boxes of 80's and early 90's stuff tucked behind newer stuff for the same price.

Reminds me of the movie "Wall-E" where they find the 700 year old Twinkie.

There was a time back in the 90's when I was working at a place that did car audio & security. You wouldnt believe some of the stuff we have found when we had to remove the front seats. Once we found actual live mushrooms growing on the carpet in one car. Yuk.

So the day is over, and I picked off four separate shops for rare/old smokes they had and offered at MSRP... Amazing... See:



I got:
2x Anejo 50s
2x Anejo 46s
2x Opus Super Belis
2x AB Tempus Perfectos (never seen this shape before)
4x Oliva O Bold Red Cloth Bands (Drools)
3x Oliva Master Blends Series 1 (2002) Torpedos
3x A.Fuente Maduro Hemingway Signatures
2x A.Fuente Work of Art Maduro

Good days work... (did this while selling a few new accounts on my products in an area I visit rarely)

Way to spend that commission! Sounds like you might need to put those clients on your regular route.
