any extras that you get to keep can be PIF'd to wi hehe. Me personally, Don't like when orders get mixed up, lost or anything cause I usually end up feeling guilty that me nor the place of transaction didn't get what we paid for or sold. I don't want anyone in a transaction that deals with me feel lost out. Its hard to do business with someone if theres a bad taste in the mouth either way.

Default Re: Rolling your own

well, I need to figure out how to ship them on the cheap. I guess i have to find a good source of small boxes...

also what are the legalities behind selling them, would i just be selling the Cigar band? haha, what prices, pending the reviews i get (to make sure they arent too bad) would people pay for one?

@ Dball, let me know the next time you are out at Jerry's and i will hand one over. I would value your input.

Thats is what i was using, the smallest flatrate box which is 5.20 to ship. making it expensive to ship samples. i would rather pay postage by weight

Use bubble mailers and regular postage, first class. I think it's like a min. charge of $1.87 and the mailers can be found for cheap if you shop around.

It's 5 bucks to ship anywhere in the US with the small flat rate boxes. Probably the best way to go. I have a ton at my place. Come out to Moe's Sunday and I can bring you some if ya need em.

Can't wait to try the cigar, man

True, but I have never received nor sent sticks that were received broken by this method.

There should be several light, creative solutions for reinforcing the stick(s) for transport unless maybe you can secure some generic tubos for shooting samples around.

He mentioned that he wants to pay less than "$5.20" to ship samples. Some times bubble mailers are the way to go. Most of the time flat rate is where it's at, but not always.
