Hello all, Thanks again for the kind thoughts and messages the last couple of weeks after some hard news at work.  Your uplifting notes were a wonderful tonic and I'm pretty much back to my old h

Alright, I'll close off the interest list at this point. We have 43 interested folks, and I'm guessing we can have at most 30-32 guys in the pass (not including myself). I will be going over the li

I'm in. Also if you need help getting it safely from Canada please reach out to me. I more than likely would be able to help in this aspect. Thanks for organizing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapat

Id be interested in the box pass again. All of the box passes I've been in so far have been a great way to diversify my palette and aid in comradery.

Alright folks, I've updated the Interest list.  Lots of interest so far, which is great.  I'm not sure the final cap we'll have, probably somewhere between 25-30 people.

The other thing I'll say is that not everyone interested will be able to participate, we're going to go through the list of everybody to make sure it's a fair group of folks, from across the spectrums (Canadians and Americans, Experienced folks vs newer members, etc).  If I'm unable to include you, please don't take it negatively - I truly hope that this Box Pass will lead to more open passes on FOH, to make sure that everyone gets a chance to participate in a pass if they want to.

If you have space, I would like to participate.  I'm in Texas.

Thanks for coordinating!

Some might be concerned about this in open discussion.  Perhaps trust issues too.  Chris's pass - he knows/decides how to sort that out, no worries.

this list is pretty lopsided towards US participants.  I will sit this one out and watch from the sidelines.

Hell, if you're interested, get involved.  Can't hurt to put your name in.

Who knows...

Perhaps some fat assed Canucks will level out the playing field...

Therefore...

I'm interested!

Thanks for the e-mail Chris.  Response sent.

Been a while since the last one (eff me, does time EVER fly by).  But yeah, I'd be interested again, thanks!

Definitely need to get my butt caught up on here again too...

@topdiesel : Mate, the USA has 10x the population of Canada. This was never going to be 50/50 CAN/US, nor did I want it to be. I just want the best group possible.  You're still on my list for consideration if you want to be. 25-30 guys is a good sized pass.

In, naturally, but on condition that you come over for dinner while the pass is on. I'll remember this time, promise :)

OK, sounds good.

Yeah, that's why I asked him to pm me if there was any need. I'm sure with such a large pass going across a border the proper steps would be taken to avoid any unfortunate events. All I was doing was offering my services that other people can confirm. As for trust issues I know what you are referencing, but our trade went rather well did it not?

 

Have a good day. Stay smokey.

We're definitely a go for this, with the interest shown!

The Interest list will remain open through the weekend, and I'll close that off Sunday night, 10 pm, 18 June (PST-Los Angeles time). If you're interested in joining, register your interest on this thread before then!

In the meantime, I'm going to work a rules/parameters list, so that prospective members can review and decide ahead of time if they are still interested.  The rules/parameters will go over how the Box Pass will work, What can/can't be included in the pass, expectations for shipment, etc.

I'll also develop the list of what cigars will be in the pass from the start. I've dug out the Box Pass Diary from the original 2013 FOH Box Pass, and we started with 30 cigars there, so we will likely start with that same amount, but obviously the start list will be somewhat different!

I'd love to be a part of this. Count me in if I'm not too late.

Count me in!   I've got a good trader rating on BOTL, just not a lot of posts here.   Missouri, USA

I'd love to be in as well if you guys would allow. I don't do a ton of posting on here as I only like to contribute where I think I actually can. Have done a ton of these on other platforms. In the Albany, NY area.
