Regardless of how you handle this Pete, someone is gonna be pissed.
i.e...take the guy who can't get them...it's your fault that you didn't produce enough, making demand too high, causing a panic...all the while, you sit back and collect the profit.
i.e...You sell them from your site...The B&M owners/supporters see you as taking product from them to keep profit for yourself, so now they are pissed.
Long story short, your never going to please everyone. Do what you feel is best, sleep well (if you sleep at all) and let those who whine, whine. Let those who have garnered a relationship with a retailer that can get them their desired sticks continue to enjoy your product. I know I love my Noella Reservas, even though they at times can be hard to find.

Seems it would be kind of hard to hit a delivery date of the 13th to every one of the 13. That's some serious coordination that is probably impossible to do, so I would imagine most will get theirs early. Could you imagine the high pitched whines is they were late

They may have been asked by Pete to remove it since they are slated for the 13th. May be gun shy that an angry mob will be outside his house ready to burn him at the stake.

I have no problem with the marketing or the markups that retailers may demand. That is the open market. My only *itch is that an LE product should be top notch. Last year that was not the case. The Dracs are not a top quality product. I hope for the ones that buy this year's product that it is awesome. For me I don't care for the size and am still miffed by last year's product.
BTW.. I thought the Frank was great.

When I first heard of the size of this smoke, I was not interested....but as the release came closer, I decided that I probably should just try to acquire a box and see what happened...

Smoked one as soon as the boxes were in today. It was good, reminded me of the Boris. First half was good and with the last 3rd left, it just picked up and went to work with some good flavors. I think most of you guys will enjoy this cigar.
