Here is a copy of the email that I sent out all donors tonight. Please read carefully and ask any questions here.
Hello,
A week ago, I announced the BOTL 2012 Cigar produced by Drew Estate, licensed to and sold by Podman Cigars.
If you have not already heard the news, then I suggest you check out the following link:
http://www.botl.org/community/forums/showthread.php/61320-Drew-Estate-BOTL-2012-Cigar
The purpose of this email is to give the site supporters (donors) an advanced notice of when they go on sale.
I respectfully ask that you do NOT mention or pass ANY information in this email to others or on the forums.
I have set up a separate temporary forum (above Cigars) for donors to ask any questions, discuss, etc.
The pre-sale of the BOTL 2012 Cigar (for donors only!) will start at Wednesday June 6th @ 12:00 PM (noon) EASTERN.
General sale for registered members with marketplace access will be begin at midnight, June 7th.
In addition, a FREE t-shirt with the main box logo (pocket area + back) for the first 50 boxes sold (box purchase ONLY).
The sizes are approximately split between 3 sizes (l, xl, xxl) and you must use the matching coupon code as below.
For those wondering, these shirts were produced in the USA so there shouldn't be an issue with shirt sizing.
If the coupon code comes up invalid, then no shirts in that size remain.
Coupon Codes:
botl12large - 10% off your total (non-BOTL items included) + Large DE/BOTL LE t-shirt (with box purchase ONLY)
botl12xlarge - 10% off your total (non-BOTL items included) + Large DE/BOTL LE t-shirt (with box purchase ONLY)
botl12xxlarge - 10% off your total (non-BOTL items included) + XXLarge DE/BOTL LE t-shirt (with box purchase ONLY)
botl12 - 10% off your total (non-BOTL items included) with 5-pack purchases or box (with no shirt/size unavailable)
You MUST include your BOTL username AND re-confirm your shirt size (if still available) in the comments section at checkout.
Unfortunately, there is a 1 box limit as high demand is expected. Shipping starts the week of June 11th (next week).
Free domestic shipping on all box purchases - International orders MUST be placed by emailing sales@podmancigars.com

Thank you again for supporting the community and I expect that you keep the information to yourselves.
Any non-donor who use the coupon codes within the exclusive 12 hour window for donors will have their orders cancelled.
Thanks,
