I have been a member since year 1 and here is what I will say about SnS...1.) The forum reminds me of BOTL in many ways. Lots of great people hanging out and sharing information and stories and generally enjoying a love of great cigars. I have met so many interesting and giving people from almost every walk of life. It's truly my favorite part of SnS and why I come back each year. 2.) The kit is phenomenal. The kit alone comes with 15 great and often impossible to find Tatuaje cigars plus a membership coin, membership card, ashtray, SnS t-shirt, and last year it included at Xicar SnS branded cutter while the year before it was a sweet Lotus triple flame desktop lighter. I am forgetting a few things also....one year it included a SnS Havana Saver and one year it had a wine opener, etc. The kit alone is worth at least the $150 membership fee. 3.) Pete and Casper and the gang are on regularly and share stories and Tatuaje/LAT information with the SnS Forum all the time and often before they go public. 4.) If you enjoy Tatuaje and LAT cigars then you will feel right at home on SnS.
Frankly I don't care if SnS adds more members but in a way I think it's good that it will be on a referral basis. I have given my referral to a guy I met on BOTL who is a great person who I know SnS will embrace and he will really enjoy the atmosphere and the people. Like any club that restricts membership...some people will take offense to it and others will understand and get it. In my experience most of the people who want to join for the right reasons will get invited sooner or later.
