I'm on the fence on this one, I normally include humidification with all my trades/sells but had one buyer get upset because he did not want a pillow with his cigars as he had a bad experience with somebody else who sent one "too wet" which saturated the cigars.  I normally ask if somebody wants one before including as everybody has different preferences

<3 days, double ziplock.
humipack and double ziplock if more than 3 days.
and for the love of god, bubble wrap and foam doesn't cost anything. or at least stuff it with newspaper. wtf is up with this box wrapped up in butcher paper bullshit? come on man.
basically, however my source ships cigars is the standard to which i will ship out my cigars to a botl.

this should be standard if you care about being a good person.

I don't send cigars often, but when I do I double ziplock and put a damp paper towel in the outer bag. I also do that packing cigars for flying.  It seems to keep them much happier.
