Hi : I am new to this forum ..Beautiful weather is here! Smoke 'em if you got 'em! :smiley40:
Wow sorry to hear that. You got SCREWED on your vacation if you paid $750 for a box of perfection X. Even if I bought the box at my local per stick price that's only $414.40 and he opened the box for me yesterday and I bought five.
That's 12.95 per stick x 32 for you math guys (perfection x comes in a box of 32).
The box should msrp for around 375. Was 368 but I think it went up a little.
Thanks for the offer. Since the sticks indivually MSRP for $12.95, I think you're offering a great bargain. Plus the fact that you have no history here is a bonus. I don't know where you crawled from but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you're an idiot.
BTW - on this board, we don't do outright sells - we are a bidding society - as such, I start the bidding with $5. And I'll even pay for shipping. :smiley44:

you know what's interesting - I don't think I'd ever give my ebay identity to anyone... that sense of anonymity is sacred - gets personal with all the things you buy or sell... I think my wife would rip me a new one...
OMG Sid, that's F'ing awesome!!!:smiley36:Quote:

Dam! I missed another great deal.
no no bass... it's an auction... I'm still winning at $100, so as long as you bid under that, we're still cool... :smiley37:Quote:

Ok then $99.99 and I will pay the shipping. Is this a done deal now.
Hey sheagame. These guys are just gonna jerk you around. Mauied and newfie have never seen more than $20 their entire life so don't believe this $100 bid nonsense. And that BigPoppa guy is off his meds again so just ignore him. I am the go to guy on this forum so lets do business....
I am prepared to go as high as $12.95 per box. You can't beat that with a stick my friend. Let me hear from you! :smiley20:
Hey Sheagame, don't mind these guys. Most of them can't see a good deal when it's right in front of them. If you really want to impress them offer some of your Macanudos for sale. BPP gets REAL serious when he sees those.
Appreciate all your kindness I guess I did get screwed.thank you for clarifying that for me. it is always nice to post a decent email and be called that many names in 5 minutes ...... wasnt looking to step on any toes. NY'rs pay alot for OPUS X.. and since I havent seen a box cheaper than $900 anywhere else, I felt I got a good deal... for an idiot.
yes, new yorkers pay a lot more for sticks, but I think you are treating us as desperate or naive as the folks you sell to on eBay. Charging $30 (ok $20.99+ $8.95 shipping) for a stick that runs for $10 only works for the uninformed. Granted, you obviously have people that want to buy. But in this forum, we make sure that a spade is called a spade. And you're selling freaking expensive spades.Quote:

shea.....you started off on the wrong foot....we see these deals too often...that doesn't mean you can't join in the fun and frivolity....there is a herf on july 22nd...not too far from where you live....
knowing that you're on a high with the metsy's start.......toughen that skin (must be pretty tough after the past ten seasons).....also....there's a 37% tax on cigars in NYS...and sales tax added to that....opus x are sold two or three to a customer in most brick and mortars...are you planning to stick aroun or are you planning to leave us....now that we've had some laughs at your expense...
I bid $105...
Shea, I agree. As a guy who almost left the first week on the boards, I can tell you that there are a great bunch of people here with lots of good things (and bad) to say, and a lot of bantering. But it's all in good fun. I'm glad I stayed, and you will be too. Put up an intro and stick around.Quote:

Atleast his ebay feedback is good:smiley20:
Can't believe it ...Opus freakin' X. I bid $106 and I'll pay shipping.:smiley20:
I would rather go for those rare King B's. Oh wait, never mind, I already have a bunch in my humi... and all 5 of my local shops have them both by the stick and by the box.
Dont listen to all these guys, they are just a bunch of jerk bullies.
Ill trade you TWO boxes of Cohibas I got while on a trip to Tiajuana for your ONE box.
This coming from the guy who brings back the authentic "glass top" limited editions. :smiley36:Quote:
