My "imperfect finish" Gettysburg arrived yesterday from Bargain Humidors. I had debated quite a bit before ordering it but, man, am I glad I did. I have yet to find a hint of a blemish on it! Now I just need to fill this baby up...

Thanks mhotek, for treating me right!

Congrats buddy

] Glad you liked it. Make sure you take your time on seasoning it. Our Gettysburg and Vicksbrg models are much larger than most are used to and take a while longer to get seasoned than normal.

How about one named Manassas & another named Fredericksburg

Patience.

Manassas and Fredricksburg are being designed right now. Well, maybe Manassas. The second one will probably be named Shiloh. (Gotta keep them a bit short.) Antietam is already done and just needs some finishing touches. You should see that one in Oct.

(No, I'm NOT telling!)

Damn it Mike! I was planning on ordering a Vicksburg in the next month or two, but with all this teasing about your new products, I may be forced to wait until you spill the beans! I know you don't want that!

I've got two of the Gettysburgs. They're working out great. Mine were imperfect also. Where I don't know, but that's what I ordered and paid for. Works perfect for me. You definitely can't go wrong with Bargain Humidors. ORV

No, it's not too cold out for a cigar.

I'm a big fan of my imperfect Chairman. I was able to find the imperfection, but it is indeed miniscule.

Sancho Panza · 04-26-2002, 12:26 PM

Well, calling it Antietam, in lieu of Sharpsburg, takes it out for me.

Oh, yeah, I see, the name is 2 letters less.

My wife bought me a imperfect Gettysburg this week for my birthday, and it's working out just fine. Beautiful piece of work.
