victory cigars -- ordered

[GuyMcBeerdrinker]

b.j., scott, danny and I have this tradition where we split a cab of cigars to be smoked after each longhorn victory. the home opener is fast approaching us and we are going to order one soon.

hoyo de monterrey epicure no. 1

the players are:

GMcB -- 13
Legends -- 13
scottsins -- 13
quadry -- 13
michael c -- 13
danny -- 13



it'll be around $98.97 for 13. this includes pp fees, duties, bank fee, and shipping. we are getting two cabs from promo so we'll get the '03 box codes.

price for the extra cigars is $7.03/cigar plus pp fees and $4.30 for shipping to be added to your subtotal.

send your lapyap payments to: jorge@paveltek.com let's try to get this ordered by weds. so they get here by late next week, by conservative estimates.


update

okay dudes, I haven't tracked these since saturday morning. I remember them being ok'd for clearance. the tracking number is in my home computer. they were scheduled to arrive today, so any minute now. we had a bit of computer trouble this morning, and I'm typing from our server since our work stations can't get online. I think one of our hubs is fried...so I'm on lock down until our computer geek gets here to check it out.

hopefully I'll get away to pick up some bubble wrap from home to box these up. I'll post tracking numbers when they become available.

Screw UT, Go Red Raiders. Time for some more Austin area herfs for sure.

 

[GuyMcBeerdrinker]

holy shit, it's el gringo. when did you get back?

 

[vewyphishy]

Which cigars are these?

I'll be down for this. THIS is the year... dammit!

13 is quite the optimistic number. Is that for wins... or just games played?

 

[GuyMcBeerdrinker]

sorry michael, I forgot to posted it. fixed, there. hoyo de monterrey epicure no. 1

13 is for regular season games, big XII championship and rose bowl. last season we had the same amount, I gave my ou cigar to a friend and I saved my big XII championship cigar to smoke the after the bowl selection was announced.

btw, last year I simply labeled the last one as "BCS Bowl" this year I'm going with "Rose Bowl"

 

[Quadry]

13 sounds like the perfect number!!!

 

[GuyMcBeerdrinker]

scott is in dallas until next sunday. in the mean time we need to establish how many each is getting. danny will be checking in this evening after he gets off work. let's try to get this done by the middle of next week so they are in time for the home opener.

 

[Legends of the Playground]

I'm down for whatever

 

[DRL1211]

david -- because I can't tell if you are being sarcastic or not.

the university of texas longhorns. we burn a cigar after each football victory.

 

[Viper139]

Sorry, sarcasm is alive and well just not typed well. I do know who the Longhorns are.

You damn sure better. :assaultri

Kidding.

Just point me and my wallet in the right direction.

Can't wait for football season... more so than in any other year. Don't know why... don't care really. Just bring on the football!

 

[GuyMcBeerdrinker]

yikes! now we need a total of 78, do y'all want to buy the 3 dress boxes (or a cab and a dress box) and buy three extra singles. or get 100 of these and split up the extras amongsts members of our club?

 

[Quadry]

If we already have over 75 accounted for, we might want to do the 100. I am pretty sure we could find some way to get rid of the extra!

 

[Legends of the Playground]

If we buy 100, just take the extras and split them out on the next group buy with a credit to the 6 of us. And promo has the cabs for 361.00, again unbanded (but aren't the Epi's always?) That would be around 7.22 a piece plus shipping.

 

[vewyphishy]

We don't have to get closest to the exact... these are good cigars. Overbuy with the best deal... then worry about the extras once they arrive.

 

[matisse_man]

If there are extras, I am good for 7 or 8.

Now, you must know, I am confident that we can win more than 7 or 8 games, so by no means is this a comment on my expectations for the season. Furthermore, by acknowledging that now, any jinx during the season is no longer applicable.

 

[GuyMcBeerdrinker]

okay dudes, we really need to make a call pretty soon. options are:

1

4 dress boxes (100 cigars) @ $190 each
box code GKI JUN 04
I have had excellent luck with cigars from that factory

$7.60/cigar

2
2 cabs from promo (100 cigars) @ $377/each
box code is from '03, I believe...if there are some still left after their promotion.
this includes duties which I'm pretty sure will be twice the amount of a dress box -- I haven't ordered a cabinet from promo since they switched to fedex, so I don't know what they charge for them.

$7.54/cigar

if we go with the dress boxes we need to make the call and place the order as they are on sale, and I need that price to stay up so I can get it matched by bill
