Now that's not very nice. Actually, CC was being pretty kind. And he makes a good point. If you think this place is bad, try to sell those at some other boards... I've seen it - and it ain't pretty (to try for yourself, go over to CigarFamily.com on a Friday afternoon).

So why would we automatically assume you are a scammer? Hmmmm... Why would you automatically assume this board is looking for you to start off here us wanting to buy something you're selling? I dunno - don't you think that's a bit odd?

Think of it this way. You move to a new town - you find the local hangout where everyone goes to smoke cigars, chat about things, and relax and enjoy. Do you REALLY think you'd receive a very welcome reception if you came strolling in with a trench coat, whipping it open to expose all of the watches and other crap you have for sale? Don't you think that would be a bit forward on your part??? And how long do you think it would be until you'd be tasting the parking lot gravel...

So why don't you introduce yourself - stick around - get involved in the board. And then (sometime in '07) think about putting up some sales... Trust me - things will go much smoother...
