Box Split - Fuente Opus X Rosado Oscuro Oro

in Trades, Passes and Bombs
I picked up a box of these from my lounge yesterday, not to smoke - y'all know I don't roll like that - but to sell on the secondary market.  But because there's so much love in this place it seemed like a good idea to see if 3 of you want to split the box.  Here's what I'm thinking; the box has 5 classic Opus X sizes, 3 of each of the cigars below.  Three - Reserve D'Chateau 7x48, Three - Perfecxion X 6.25x48, Three - Fuente Fuente 5.625x46, Three Robusto 5.25x50, Three - Perfecxion #4 5.125x43.  So one of each of the 5 vitolas to three people... 

I don't know what MSRP is.  They were priced $365 + tax, but the shop's owners think I'm sexy so I get the Ricky Hamlin discount.  For 3 brave souls, your 5'er is $115 incl. shipping, via check or money order - everything through PayPal is considered income and I don't feel like explaining why $300+ shouldn't be taxed.

If we get three people who say they're in, you three can duke it out for the lovely yellow box.  This is one of Fuente's three limited releases this year - they'll be gone everywhere soon and then it'll take twice this much to buy on the secondary market and it'll only be boxes.

    Very cool to think of us, Peter. I wish I was feeling flush right now.

    Thanks for thinking about your BOTL, but I am broke for a while.
    Friends don't let good friends smoke cheap cigars.

    I'd be ecstatic to take one off your hand. 
    Now this is not the end of the cigar. It is not even the beginning of the end of the cigar. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning of the cigar.

    Excellent, Shawn!

    The lounge received 2 boxes of these and the second one was still there on Saturday when I bought the first one.  I'll call Tuesday (they're closed for Labor Day) and ask them to put it aside for me.

    This means we have room for another person.

    Step right up...

    When did PayPal money become income? Never heard that before

    If you have enough transactions and/or hit a certain dollar ceiling they send a 1099 to the Feds.  I sell ~1K lbs. of green/raw coffee and 100lbs. of roasted coffee per month, so it's all income and anything that comes in via PP has to be justified.

    Jeff @ExpendableYouth gets the last of it.

    I'll do the final math and send everyone a PM once I know if the 2nd box is mine.

    Peter, wondering if your lounge got any year of the tiger Davidoffs in right now? Also I’m always looking for a new lounge to go to, as I’m in SE WI too; so figure I’d ask.

    It's Metro Cigars in Brookfield but they don't carry Davidoff.

    Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.
