I had a couple hundred leftover boxes that sold like hot cakes at a garage sale. Buck a piece and I'm down to like ten or twenty. Crazy that I made more money on old cigar boxes than I did on furniture, old Fenders, and household items combined. Save your boxes.

A couple hundred!! That is kinda funny, did they say why they wanted them? Just think, your old box may be a centerpiece on a coffee table somewhere now, lol.2

I see boxes in antique shops for $10-$15 all the time. Lots of times they add some hardware-decorative handles or feet-and try to sell them like they're something really special. I know people use them for crafts, too, so they're probably making a profit.

I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot. I will smoke anything, though.2 -

I find the boxes very useful . I keep all my "gear" in one I keep near my humidor. I use a few in the garage for holding various things. And my wife uses one for her nail polish!no matter where you go, there you are.2 -
Nice! That's what I'll probably do1

A couple hundred? I used to keep them, but they started to pile up so started throwing them away. Good for the firepit as well.1
