    Just remember that we probably wont get every single one of our top 15 sticks that we wanted. I gave him the top 27 choices, so that they have some room to play around and create the best sampler they can. But as I said earlier, if we even get half of the top choices, we should all be really happy.

    Nice Job! I have tried 9 of the 15 and have found them all to be very good to excellent! I will have to try #10 tomorrow!

    A bunch of my choices were top 10 but there are a few I still need to try, I am sure that 28 of you can't be wrong though.

    I am especially excited for this sampler because, as a n00b, I haven't tried most of those cigars, and after reading up on them, this is a super premium collection, that if they get it together, will be an excellent addition to my inventory, and a great way to enhance my palate.

    That is going to be an expensive sampler. I will definately buy one though.

    My guess is that if they offer this sampler, it will have 5 or 8 sticks, maybe 12, but it will be pretty expensive. I hope they offer it, though...these guys are pretty good at shaving numbers.

    Same here and that's a nice list of cigars too so maybe they can put something together with some of those. Pretty cool they're even considering it though.

    Just remember that those are the top 15, and I sent Alex a list of the top 27 (anything with 7 or more votes). So if they can't put something in the sampler, they can get go to the next best selection and choose that one. They are amazing all the way down -I am sure they will be able to come up with something great. If you go to page 4 of this thread, I posted a link for the file that I sent to them.

    The one you sent me for the CA SS was great Kuzi. I found more to go with it.

    Any news on a sampler? Has Alex responded yet?
  • oldsoulrevival
    oldsoulrevival Posts: 632 ✭✭
    Nothing yet. I am sure it takes a little time working out a sampler. Plus, they'll need to take pictures, do pricing, etc. I don't know if he will email me back, or if he will post something here, or if CCOM will simply post the sampler up for a special, or something. It's only been a couple days. I am super excited :)

    I will 100% buy this sampler as soon as it comes out. Is it guaranteed to come out?
  • oldsoulrevival
    oldsoulrevival Posts: 632 ✭✭
    I can almost guarantee we will NOT get the top 10 cigars - I mean, if they made it work, it would be incredible, but I think there might be some heavy politics with those sticks. That being said, Alex DID say he would work something out for all of us; so I do think that we will get our sampler. It might be not be the top 10, but that's why I gave him our top 27, so that he could make the best sampler possible for us. I am sure they won't disappoint :)

    This sampler is going to have to include some sort of warning label about smoking on an empty stomach.

    What they've done with forum exclusive opportunities in the past is chime back in on the original thread or create a new thread giving us all a heads up what is being offered and that it's ready. If we are interested further we email or call our rep. Some brands are price protected so they have to mix those in with brands that they can put on sale to create a sampler at a discounted price overall.

    Thanks for spearheading this survey oldsoulrevival, great idea!!!
