I was pondering this very question recently. I see nothing wrong with re-gifting. If I gave you something with stipulations it wasn't really a gift.

Now what do you all say about selling gifted cigars??

Personally see nothing wrong with re-gifting at all, selling a gifted cigar is another matter.

I have many times re-gifted cigars someone has given me if I know I will never smoke them(especially good place to gift them is to the troops)

Agreed.

I don't re-gift unless I ask the person that gave it to me if they mind. Only happened a few times.

Kinda, sorta.

I have never re-gifted but it used to bother me when others did. I got over that pretty quick.

Pretty straight forward. I am saying I do not believe you should sell a gifted cigar.

I would hope the question of selling a gifted smoke was a joke.

As for regifting sticks you've already tried or don't like, I wouldn't find it inappropriate to do so.

I say no way in hell would that be appropriate.

Re-gifting cigars so that others may enjoy something you are not going to smoke is more than appropriate. I do this -- and not necessarily because I don't like the cigar. It's more a case that there are other cigars that I enjoy more.

As others have said: selling cigars that you have been gifted is totally inapproriate, wrong, and downright slimey!
