Sven Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 For those of you who have been around the forum long enough you will remember that Rob's nephew Simon, also know as Mini Smithy once worked at Czars. Young lad at uni thought he might have a career in cigars. That was until he sold box number 001 of 260 of the Ramon Allones Estupendos. Talk about fireworks going off in the humidor after Rob found out. Poor Mini Smithy was never the same after that he started to loose his hair and now walks with a limp. Tomorrow Rob will be selling some boxes that have some very similar low numbers. If you are a collector of cigars you will need to be here for this as you may never see this again. Perhaps it will be a different sort of fireworks tomorrow. See you all here for this event.
Ken Gargett Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 it was one of the all time highlights. all hail, mini-smithy! it did cut into your profits, only being able to sell 9 boxes numbered 001, insterad of the usual ten.
Ken Gargett Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 See you all hear for this event. and english might not be sven's first language (i think bulls..t is) but how is his 'here'ing?
sharks Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Sounds interesting Sven, will have to check with the God of War re finances thanks for the heads up!

Rushman Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Sven, you couldnt wait until AFTER I got a paycheck from the new gig??????????
Orion21 Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Prez already mentioned what the cigars are going to be. It's not any GR's. They are Asian RE cigars that have been reviewed on the forum. Boxes 1-10 make them more interesting though.
maverickdrinker Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Must have missed that post. Wondering what cigars will be released....
rckymtn22 Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Must have missed that post. Wondering what cigars will be released.... The info was in the email that Rob sent out.
Vcool Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Sacto, I believe so.. Why is everyone so secretive about it? Am I missing something?
Orion21 Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Rob sent an e-mail out offering the boxes 1-10 to any collector intact. If no one showed interested he stated they would go one the forum. They are PL Belicosos Extra from 2008 I believe.
stargazer14 Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Sacto, I believe so.. Why is everyone so secretive about it? Am I missing something? That secret stuff sells for lots more!

melies Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 I am trying to stall, my wife want me to go to the super market... need this to start soon
Sven Posted January 10, 2013 Author Posted January 10, 2013 OK guys we are all here? A while back Rob received some low box numbers of the Por Larranaga Belicosos Extra Asia Pacific Regional Release. There were 7400 boxes made and Friends of Habanos ended up with boxes 1-10. They are all of HQ - PSP quality and in excellent condition all are EMA JUL 08 box code. There are no anti-smoking adds on the boxes and have been stored in the FoH humidor since they arrived and Mini Smithy has not been allowed to even look at these cigars.
