Oscar300 Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 I’m in, all to a good cause, and I loves a raffle
Fatshotbud Posted January 30, 2018 Posted January 30, 2018 Carol stated the La casa Del Habano in 1995 it is located on the French side. She skrimped and saved to get it done and developed a loyal clientelle from around the world including members from FOH. Carole loves cigars and loves her clients. She was proud of what her and her husband had developed. Life was good. ....and then hurricane Irma hit September 17. Carol lost everything. Four months later and the insurance assessors still haven't come back to her. The store is a writeoff. What the flooding didn't get, the collapsed ceiling did. While she is hopefull of rebuilding her LCDH, right now she is struggling to make ends meet. Can we give her a hand? I will put up a box of one of my favourite cigars in the Saint Luis Rey Lonsdale APE JUL 01. They are perfectly rolled. Every $10 donation gets a ticket in the draw for it. If you donate $50, you receive 5 tickets. Donation is to be made to Caroles PayPal account: [email protected] *Do not mention tobacco/Cuba or anything else. Just Donation: Irma Relief Fund : Name: Joh Blogs : FOH Handle: Generous bastard. Carol will provide me a summary of contributors February 28th and we will draw the winner on the 1st of March. i hope you can lend a hand [/url] PM sent Rob Sent from my KYOCERA-E6560 using Tapatalk
jtfrizzy Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 Hadn't realized you meant for it to be in € until I already sent $20USD. So that was sent will try and send some more in a few days. Great cause though glad to be a part of it. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
jtfrizzy Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 Ohh also PP doesn't convert $USD-->€ correctly imo atleast the last time I checked the exchange rate it wasn't that big of a difference. If someone has a better way of doing that to just send € please PM me to assist me with this for when I go at another donation again in a few days. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk 1

Sent from my SM-N950U using TapatalkI honesty think that whatever currency you receive, it will be automatically converted to your currency used when setting up the account. I know when I have friends in the USA send me USD, it converts and shows up as Canadian funds. Needless to say, she will get her donations. Great cause!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1
joeman Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 Done! Such a shame and this my first CdH since my visit was around the time I first got into cigars. In a sea of fakes they were always the genuine article and worthy of a trip even if staying on the Dutch side, or stopping from a cruise on the Dutch side. I hope they can rebuild and soon! 1

Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk It converted for me. My $52.25 converted to €40.70 on Sunday of this week. Paypal told me exactly how much i gave and what she received. ??
smokeyjoe01 Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 I hope they get on their feet & this will help. Hope to one day visit them.
jtfrizzy Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 It converted for me. My $52.25 converted to €40.70 on Sunday of this week. Paypal told me exactly how much i gave and what she received. Yeah it did for me as well but not initially in the app when I used it idk why but I got an emailed receipt and it showed the exchange rate and all that. So maybe it was just me or a glitch or something, but all squared away now. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
fitzy Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 I'm in for 20 euro's. Glad to help. Last time I was on the island her store didn't exist. I hope she can get reopened. 1
Luca Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 Done. I really hope Carol and her Husband can get the place back up and running. It is horrible seeing those pictures
fastkiller13 Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 I've never been to St. Martin but my best friend traveled there all the time. I will be making a donation and hoping my buddy will be bringing me home some cigars from the new shop as soon as things are put back together.
Blakes Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 Done. Wishing Carole and her husband all the best.
Popular Post MC4 Posted February 2, 2018 Popular Post Posted February 2, 2018 Done. all the best to Carol. Her store is the first LCDH visit/shopping I did about ten years ago while on honeymoon. Divorced since, but the pictures of my avatar is the purchase I made from there: 5

Bohn007 Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 Those Lonsdales look amazing so I had to buy more chances to win! 1
Danimalia Posted February 16, 2018 Posted February 16, 2018 In for 20 euro. This past hurricane season was terrible for so many. I know it’s not much, but I hope this helps. Can’t imagine anyone is getting rich operating a LCDH, and having your entire business wiped out while trying to make ends meet must be so devastating.
Rrm7284 Posted February 16, 2018 Posted February 16, 2018 Great cause, this is what community is all about. Donation sent.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
ha_banos Posted February 17, 2018 Posted February 17, 2018 Hopefully this is a good sign they are up and running in some form? 2
