It's been an expensive couple of weeks but this was just this past weekends haul. Drove up to Raleigh for Pork and Puff at Empire with Pete Johnson being the guest of honor for the day. I know he gets a lot of sh*t here but getting to talk to him for a good amount of time has proven to me that he is genuinely a good guy. Very humble and super knowledgeable on tobacco. I have a whole new respect for the guy after this weekend. He's also no slouch on knowledge when it comes to pipes.

Awesome, I like the signed box!
What is the metal thing in the leather case on the left?

It's a box opener. That with the decal, patch, hat and three Blacks was the Swag that came free with a box purchase.

Bundle of 20 Devil's Weed Maduros (to give to moochers) and a 5er of Tat Havana VI Hermosos

Not a great way to get started...Show some interest in the community before sniping for sources...JMHO

Kinda my point by saying it's pretty easy to find cigars without asking. Amazing tool called google that we are all blessed with. Who would've thought you could find viaje cigars by typing viajecigar into your browser???

CigarSquid · 09-12-2011, 05:18 PM

Here is my buy from macsauce13 on the 40 Cigar Newbie Sampler he was selling. Thanks again!

kelmac07 · 09-12-2011, 05:36 PM

I don't see it as too big a deal. It's not like he was asking for a Cuban source. Hopefully he sticks around and becomes part of the community.

Just what I was about to do to see if my (nearly) local B&M had any.

Sadly enough, it takes Flash. My wife is asleep and all I have is the iPad. Tomorrow, then.

Darn you Cbid and your freefall auctions. I mean, Thank you Cbid and your free fall auctions!

If they had not had a two box limit on those Unholy Cocktails I probalby would have gotten more. Now I need to look at more storage options. Hmmm.
