IT IS DONE! My first order has been made. I am now working on putting together a wish list to try to get some good deals on cbid. So far I have the AF 898. If anyone else has some must have suggestions I would be happy to hear them. To those of you that already made suggestions I thank you! I hope to be making suggestions to others soon. I cannot wait for my humidor to get here so I can season it, and start filling it up.

Thanks for the welcome!

I am glad that someone finally posted a link to that website, I lost it a while back and I haven't been able to find it with the search function.

Default Re: About to make order....How does it look?

Start getting your humidor conditioned right away,find a good spot for it and get some moisture in it,my local shopkeeper usually sprays a little distilled water in and wipes it around w/ a clean towel to begin conditioning a new humi.I am sure you will get other advise on this...Happy Trails...Garbandz... you will be getting something from me real soon...

A newbie should just try every smoke that comes his way.
Plenty of time to get a second order together.

You can probably get in on a Newbie Sampler Trade(NST)
with a FOG. FOGs are very generous with smokes, and
NSTs are notoriously one sided, in favor of the newbie.

Look for NSTs on this and other cigar boards like CigarPass.com
or eHerf.com, etc. CA probably has them here, too.

My Priority package didn't get to you yet? 3 1/2 days?

Nope not yet! Believe me I have been trying every smoke I can...trades, PIFs, 5ers, etc. I have been trying to buy samplers when I see good deals...I have decided this is for sure a hobby I am going to continue with. I have a 400ct humi I am trying to fill up...falling quickly down the slope!v

Darn! I'm going to have to go up to the Priority Mail sorting
facility, where I used to work, and kick some butt!

You should have had them today, at the latest. Maybe tomorrow.
Hope they didn't 'inspect' the package. Not sure that the USPS likes
cigars in the mail. Never had a problem b4, though.

Maybe I'll check the DC for progress.

No kidding. The cigars are double bagged/ziplocked and
there's a damp paper towel to help the humidity in the box.

Nothing to do now but wait for delivery.
Sorry for the snafu. Let me know their condition when you
get them.
