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.
I've alway been told to be careful of what you ask for, you might get it.

That's why I only buy glass-top boxes so as I can always tell if they're full or not.

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 .

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.

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!

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

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

Threads like this remind me why I love this place.

Default Re: When do you own a box?

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!!!
