A guy walks into a forum with no cred...

[jinx25]

Hello, all. Just looking for a little insight as I've been out of the game for a few years, rarely smoke anymore & would like to eventually unload some high-end stuff.  I've had one transaction here a few years ago & that's the extent.  Since I won't be buying/trading to gain cred, as I don't need more cigars, is it then mere trust?  I had a great rep on CA forums (where I see trading is gone), and a couple private forums. I mass-collected for both smoking enjoyment and investment from around 2006-2011.  I could, of course, provide detailed pics with current date/time stamp if there was any question of legitimacy.  Just gauging etiquette/protocol here, respectfully.  Loads of Viaje/Tat stuff, including Samurai, Zombie, Tower 45th, Holiday Blend (2010), Summerfest, Skull & Bones, T110, SODO, Barclay Rex, Anarchy, Federal 90th, Pork Tenderloin, NHC Seleccion Limitada, Miami FF (Cojonu '09), NHC unbanded Verocu #1/2 (East/ West), 10'ers of Face, Bundles of Drac and Boris, and full dress boxes of Frank (signed by PJ, purchased from Mark @ Tower Cigars), Drac (I held one of the Spooky Tickets) and Face, no BS. You may find posts (search jinx25) on CA regarding some of these things. I'm going through three huge coolers doing inventory & it'll be a while.  So, when the time comes to sell, shall I just jump in?  Any help/comments are appreciated.  Feel free to PM with any questions & understand I may not be the quickest to respond.  Happy Holidays, all.  J.

Until you build up your red you might have to ship first and receive payment after everything arrives in good condition. Looks like you have a good little collection you will fit in fine around here.

I agree, but be sure you look at the feedback of whoever is buying from you before sending the cigars on faith, to make sure they are trustworthy enough for that leap of faith ;-) It's shouldn't take too many transactions with feedback before members become less leary and more willing to trust you, but be patient as there have been many dbags in the past running scams so their caution is warranted

Thanks, gents. I'll absolutely take into account the buyers feedback & will spend some time lookin' around the forum to get a feel for folks here. I have no prob shipping first to someone with sufficient positive feedback. I have received and read all PM's & when the time comes, will answer them in order of receipt. I'm also making a list of what people are interested in. Please be patient, as I have a lot of inventory to go through & not much free time to do it.  Thanks for the input and interest.  J.
