I just got this off e-Bay. Total with the shipping sa $26. Makes them little less than $3. each. That's a lot better than I get at the local cigar store.

SCORE!
OOOO, is that on Oliva box on the left middle row?
nice score paul maybe would should start a group for us folks that are addicted to buying boxes on e bay and compare the deals we find
The one on my right as I look at the picture, middle row is an Oliva.
Check the one on the left end in the middle row. I think I have the same box. I see the Oliva on the right.

Shoot my father in law just got a dozen or so for FREEEE, smoke shop in Buffalo was glad to get rid a them. Next time im up I'll see what I can get my hands on, maybe do some trades?? In these times I'd gladly trade
I pay 6-dollars each for the purty wood ones. That's a score!
Hey Paul,
I 've found that ebay can be a great place to find boxes. I've bought several off of there myself.
I have bought most of my boxes from e-Bay because there are only a few cigar stores in my area and they don't have a great variety. But lately the shipping and handling, is getting too high to make the boxes worth it to me. I can't justify spending $12 plus per box. So now I look and only buy what I think is a good buy, or a box I just gotta have.

Just received notice from the seller that two of the boxes were broken. He wants to replace them with the ones in the second picture. I okay-ed it, a little disappointed because I love punch boxes, but I already have a red one. I don't have the ones he is replacing with. The little CAO will store parts.

Yeah, get him to send the broken's. I know I have salvaged wood from others to fill in spots or make supports as needed. Heck I have one now that had some kind of a thin veneer-thin wood with the logo imprinted. Musta been something that separated the cigars. I dunno. I'm gonna use that as a veneer on one box. Maybe the headstock. Dunno.

BTW- that is the same Oliva as I have (middle left box). Sweet box. Finish well to protect the design and original varnish. It chips and scratches very easily.
