Interested in a good CHAVETA. Cant find one. Might make one. Post pics of your knife!

They're always made for fat guys.

Boy the real deal is expensive though. I can find poly cotton for cheap, but that wouldn't work. Sposed to be linen to keep cool. Linen costs a ton. Even all cotton are forty bucks. Still looking for custom.

They look goofy.

ebay has "vintage" (re pre-owned) linen Guayaberas at a reasonable price. Be sure to pick up a nice straw fedora.

That picture looks familiar. I like the way whole leaf tobacco is presented as Whole Leaf Tobacco in the description. Smart.

Yea, great job Don (eBay )..I see you have some bids and with info about WLT, this will be a win-win!

Smart...

It is amusing to watch people bid on something When they could Buy It Now for 24.99. if they could just google something right in front of there face.

I wonder how much their "hands on" training costs.

Austin TX. If one of our members is close enough and willing, a number of us could chip in for the cost and the new knowledge could be brought back and shared here.

Two thousand dollars plus expenses in 2004.

So, you sold one buy-it-now... and you seem to have a lot of action over there.
I wounder if the biders are aware of WLT.com

If the buyers aren't aware of WLT now, they sure a shit will be after they get free cigar leaf samples with their chavetas.

Well put. .... No doubt there! Well done Don.

I'm looking forward to listing the new cigar molds on ebay also. I probably won't even bother putting them on the website for now. The molds will be about $85 each, so they're affordable, but like the chavetas, I'll let the market determine the price. If someone buys a cigar mold, they're probably going to need tobacco too.

After you send them a sample and a business card with the link for the website they will hooked

That's a great idea! Maybe they could select one of the 3 new blends just posted for cigars as well?

Great way to test market a product!

Wow, that was posted by Sam Leccia back in 2010...I absolutely love his cigars! My newest favorite cigar of all time is the Sam Leccia Black. Cool cigar and a cool guy! (Sorry, I was a bit "star struck" for a min.)

Great find, IMHO!
