MrJerry's "official" reasoning on no longer posting specials where is that he's not got enough customers on this board to make it worth his while.

But - in the true sense of brotherhood, Kevin is just wanting to ensure everyone has access to MrJerry's specials. I realize perhaps there's not a huge customer base, but I'm sure SOMEONE from 'Smokers will want to take him up on the offer...

Kevin is a truly generous man!!!

Ah okay. I figured it was due to his case of "silica vaginosis" but I was looking for a second opinion, as all callous villians should.

I'll stick with my 8 O'Clock Bean, Kona, and Gurkha. At least I know what I'm getting with these.

If you google any of his "specials" odds are you can find better prices in about ten seconds. He gives the impression that he's the only one selling whatever his flavor of the month is but again, if you google the particular beans he's hawking in any given month, you'll find hundreds of sellers offering the same exact crap, usually for less money then he's asking.

I suppose I wouldn't mind paying more for his coffee if he was a good guy but he's a complete asshole. Hell, even if he were selling it for $3.00 a pound, I'd buy it from anyone but him even if it cost me twice as much, why patronize a douche bag?

George, I thought his official reason for no longer posting his crap here was because Hex refused to ban me. He pulled the same $hit over on Snobs too.

I believe his "unofficial" reason was you - but (for the record) I believe he said there are not enough orders on CigarSmokers (or Snobs, for that matter) to sustain his continued attempts at selling his beans here (or there).

Tomato - tomahtoe.

He seems, at least on the surface, to believe he's on the right course, And (admittedly) he's running a business and I'm not. So I don't think what I think (or you, Bill) really matters to Mr. Jerry. He'll drive that bus anywhere he doggone pleases!!!

Personally - I think his marketing strategy matches his personality, and I'd be inclined to do things a bit differently. Kris' "silica vaginosis" diagnosis seems pretty accurate. Calling for banning of "friends" under some very innocuous comments seems to be a bit off - but then again - Mr. Jerry's marketing style has always been a bit different. I'm not in any position to be sure that's good or bad for him.

It don't cost him one thin dime to post his product here. All he does is cut and paste the same ad on different forums. If he only sells one bag here a month it's worth a few seconds to post. He is just all butt hurt over Bill.
