smoke-keep or sell

[gazza60]

theses are the pictures of my cuban cigar collection,i would like to know is whether i should smoke-keep or sell them on. as i am a novice any suggestions/advice would be welcome so feel free to let me know.

Are these the ones from the fridge storage?

[spirit_of_will]

Give us a bit more of a run-down on the detail, please?

List what you have, along with the date/box codes which should be on the bottom of each box.

All joking aside about them being kept in the fridge, how have they been stored since they were originally bought. One of the most important considerations will be how they've been stored.

?????????????????????????????????

Why do you need to ask if you should smoke them or not...

Is that not why you brought them in the first place...

Very odd question...

[gazza60]

as i have already stated i did not buy these they were either a gift or as part payment for work i carried out

[bigbarneyhotdog]

You do not mention that in your first post.

I would suggest that you smoke them and see if they suit your taste. No one can really tell you what you will like or not..

You could even post a review on them...

PS
You seem like a nice chap so please do not make the mistake of trying to sell them on here as I will just delete your posts.

it was not my intention to try and sell them on here. all i was after was the members opinion or advice on wether these cigars are good,average or bad.also if they were worth keeping as a investment as i have seen some vintage cigars go for a lot of money.it seems to me that the member know what they are talking about unlike me iam new to this (having only smoked king edwards and 1 churchill ).

Hi Gazza

As has already been mentioned, a little more info would be useful. i.e. Brand and type, how they've they been stored, box codes, dates, etc (look under the boxes).

If you're planning on keeping them, either to smoke yourself or to sell on at a later point, its essential you look into some form of longer term storage solution.
A Humidor or a Tupperdore would do the job (try the 'search' facility if you need more info).

Stick around, ask about, make some posts - you'll find everything you need to become an obsessive compulsive like the rest of us.

I think the problem is the lack of detail we have so far. As Spirit of Will says, we would need box codes, a full history of how the cigars have been stored during the time you've had them and before if possible, and some close up pics of the unwrapped cigars would be great so we can see if they have dried out at all.

Your R&J Churchills with the seperate Habanos logo and Cuban seal look interesting mate.

Let us know how those bad boys smoke.
