Thread: Get your march overroasted shit

  1. Default Get your march overroasted shit

    MrJerry









    No fees, no dues no nothing.

    We’re going to highlighting a new coffee every month
    for the next six month. These are beans that have been
    thoughtfully selected with our client’s in mind.

    Each coffee will be available for one month only...
    when it’s gone it’s gone and we’ll move on to the next one.
    There may be a few that make it into our regular rotation
    but that’s for you to decide.

    This months feature:
    Costa Rican Tarrazu
    $12.95 1 lb bag
    $7.45 1/2 lb bag
    plus shipping

    Cup Characteristics
    Medium Dark Roast, full body. Something you will brew up morning, noon and night - classic character with increased body and proportion.

    The near-perfect growing conditions - rich volcanic soil and a mild, high-altitude climate - contributes to the awesome elegance of this world class coffee. You'll enjoy an unusually silky flavor, with a full well-balanced body, and a superb aroma that creates a wonderfully eloquent complex profile.

    If you’d like to grab one of these specials for yourself, a friend, or as a gift, all you’ve got to do is email me jerry@killerbeans.com, please don’t forget to include you name, the address that you’d like the beans shipped to and a contact phone number. As always, I include an invoice with every order which is payable by check or money order...remember, I know where you live!

    If you’d like to pay by credit card, give me a call at the store 765.423.7400 or you can email your card number and the expiration date and I’ll make sure you’re all taken care of.

    Thanks guys, Jerry

    I found this great coffee at my local supermarket (Woodman's) - Cameron's. It's roughly $6.00 a pound for Kona Blend. Good stuff!!!

    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.

    Yeah - and in about 35 years you might have enough royalties to buy a "tall" cup of Starbuck's Bold Blend coffee...

    ...or 50+ years to get a 1/2 pound of Mr. Jerry's coffee...

    Uh, no.

    I'd spend my whopping $3 on something worthwhile like snorting blow off a hooker's ass before I bought his shit.

    And yes, you can quote me.

    Ok, Ok, Ok.... Thanks for THAT visual... ...and they have hookers on the FOB???? To hell, you say!!!

    I just want you to know - I had begun to collect $$$ for the MarineOne Royalty fund. But now that I see where those funds are destined to go, I'm not so sure I'm willing to encourage such incorrigible behavior...

    ...then again - given the choices (hooker vs. Killer Beans) - it may not be a bad investment to go the hooker route. Certainly, it may end up being the gift that keeps on giving!!!

    I wonder if you can get the clap from snorting coke off a hooker's ass? Gives post nasal drip a whole new meaning.

    Do draft dodgers have reunions? And if so what do they talk about?

    I've actually been inclined to buy some beans from him before, from the praise his beans get at CP, I figured they were decent.

    After the little fiasco here though, I've definitely thought otherwise. Especially after the fact was pointed out that they are nothing special and just resold. To me they seem no different that what I could get at Walmart for less than half the price.

    Glad I never pulled the trigger before.
    Yay! Cigars!

    Doc.

    I'd be more worried about crabs. That'd be hard to explain to the wife...
