This is a weird topic. The arguement is one of semantics...i would classify a box of cigars as one full of cigars. But too each their own. This will probably be as varied as peoples tastes in cigars.

I am with addiction on this one.
However I think of my overall volume in boxes so in my case I think I have 110 to 120 boxes...........where that implies the total # of sticks but I probably only have 60 or so actual boxes ![]() ![]() |

If the box only had one cigar in it than it would be a box with cigar!

If the box only had TWO cigars in it then it would be a box with cigarS. So I gather the critical issue here is a box OF cigars or a box WITH cigars.

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 .

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! |

My theory is, if you bought the full box, you own it. Does not matter how many you have smoked.

I fully admit Bryan is right if you are counting boxes in terms of the ability to sell.
For me, who does not intend to sell partial boxes, if I purchase and smoke a few out of the box, I still consider myself having a box. Just my opinion

For me: (ok I may be splitting hairs here)
I have a full box until it has been opened. I have a partial box until I move the remaining gars to the singles drawer. |
