Newb question on Box Splits

[SoCal gunner]

Yep, the Bums have nailed it.
Shipping eats into budget sticks at a higher percentage rate, which further counters a bargain buy. (See below)

A few of the last ones I did were because of box size (50 count), rareness (bum sharing a score), Cost, or first time smoke.

That doesn't mean someone still won't do it, especially depending on the price you get.

Also, a lot of splits don't make it into that thread - they happen on the fly or in thread discussions.

Budget example - I grabbed a mazo (25) of San Cristobal Quintessence Robustos.l for about $128 w/tax. That puts me at about $5 a stick. If you want a fiver, I'll send one at no up charge for $35 (puts you at $7 a stick).
@chain_gang just posted a Caldwell Lost&Found 5'er deal: $20 shipped - hard to beat that!
