Just a little info first. I work off shore and have a 20 on and 10 off hitch. Say I were to place a order and it arrived when I am still at work could the neighbor lady get them from the mail box and just keep the package in her house? Or should I try and place an order to arrive when I am home? It seems like it's a crap shoot on delivery time though. So I guess the question is will they be fine sitting in the shipping package let's say worst case for 20 days? Thank y'all

Small Batch ships with a boveda to keep them properly hydrated, so as long as the temperature is acceptable, they should keep fine for that long.
Without a humidifcation device? I don't know.

I believe most proper dealers will ship their sticks fairly "wet" I have noticed at like almost 70. If you have a nice neighbor I would have her bring them in, Im gunna be gone for a few weeks in a few months and I am giving my neighbor a large tupperware with some bovedas in it and just telling her to throw them in there for the time being until I get back. Cause Im sure ill have orders coming in cause it seems like an endless cycle haha.

Both orders I have made so far were shipped with a "humidipak" so hoping that will help. I am just not sure what to expect on shipping times as this was my first go a round. Have seen where some guys are getting theirs in a week so I am hoping for the best.

That's the plan to have her bring the "mail" lol in. Might need to get a Tupperware deal setup for her. Thanks man.

No problem brother, when I thought of it I just thought what is the way I could make it the easiest for her and allow best care for the cigars. preloaded tupperdor with bovedas seems easy, most mine will probably be boxes so she's just gotta throw the box in there and good to go.

With 10 off, I think most suppliers would deliver in that time frame. Ci, small batch, and cigar page were pretty quick, like 3 days. Famous is usually about 5-6 days.

Order from small batch. You'll have your order in 2 days. With a boveda. Those guys get ALL my NC money now.
+1. They are amazing. They are in CA and I live in a small town in Missouri. I placed an order on Saturday afternoon and it was in my mailbox on Monday! How do they do that?
