That kills my theory that they might have been using UPS/FedEX and I listed my PO Box. Or maybe they had a no po box requirement, but they never bothered to state that.

There are a few folks who perhaps did not receive their smokes,and those of you who actually did participate can email Dylan@Camachocigars.com to help them get your cigars to you. Dylan explained that the mailing process was stringent,and that some addresses were kicked out for errors,so you have another chance for fulfillment if you simply email him. He has the list and can check your address,and he will see to it that you get your smokes.
When you do get your package,you should post a note that you have gotten it,Camacho deserves that much.
Concerning the emails we are getting,if you no longer wish to be kept in the information loop,you can opt out,and you will not get the updates any more. I enjoy the chance to learn what's going on in the industry,so I will stay on the list.
I want to thank Dylan and Camacho for their efforts and the excellent cigars they sent me.I respect the effort and the company for it.....Garbandz
When I went to unsubscribe lo and behold it showed when I subscribed to the bbp date, time, my name and email address:

They sure could have confirmed address problems with me if they chose.

Just recieved my response from Dylan and I do hope I get them. I won't boycott them as the triple maduro and coyolar are damn fine cigars.

I wonder if the problems in Honduras are going to waylay the sending of packages from the company. I know that when some people asked about their cigars, the reps mentioned the timing of the deliveries was dependent on whether they could get the cigars into the country.

Dylan sent me a response to my e-mail, said that they are going to be shipping out the remaining within a few weeks. Hopefully some of them will show up in my mailbox.
