It’s when some cigars are put in a box and sent from one person to the next, with each person requesting to take some cigars they fancy out and replacing them with cigars of equal (or greater) worth.

It’s a good idea but takes some serious administration to make work.

I think this this is what it is anyway, someone correct me if I’m wrong.

Spot on Alex, this one was from another forum.

Its basically a trading box so you recieve 10 cigars, take what you want but have to replace what you took with something of similar size age and value. Post what you are taking and putting on the forum then if everyone is happy with the trade the box is mailed to the next person who wants it.

It’s a great idea, just a pain to organise I imagine.

It's probably not too bad to be fair. The hard part is the organiser putting a box of 10 cigars together. The rest as far as swapping stuff out and passing it on is quite easy. Theres a 48 hour turnaround once you recieve the box and its just a case of posting in the thread then getting the box in the post to the next person.

This is what happens when you try to stop buying for a while...

The Monte is an 07 and the Imperiales is a 12. I'm not really a monte fan but wanted to try an aged one as I seem to be coming round on my box of monte 4's the older they get.

Let me know what you think of it mate, you took every cigar out of the box that I had put in haha

Haha I didn't notice that. Cheers Joey some good stuff there. I'll probably smoke it in a few weeks so will report back.

Sounds like a great idea...I'm guessing if you take out an el you replace it with el and so on

Yeah thats the idea. Theres another I've seen where cigars are given a handicap aswell so you can put 2 lesser cigars in for 1 better one and so on. As long as the rules are comprehensive at the start it usually works.

Its a fun thing to do but only needs one person to welch for it to come crashing to a halt.

Been browsing shops today on holiday. Found some old Siglo 5's. Don't think theres anything else too interesting to be found so probably just going to pick up 1 or two boxes of regular production earlier next week.
