This isn't someone trying to be funny, is it? I bid $1. and you cover the shipping.

Doc.

I think he is for real.

**badwhale** · 09-29-2010, 07:35 PM

Yep a real douchecrank.

Dammit. Forgot to bid $1.32 (includes shipping to be clear)

I got a negative feeback on eBay once for selling transmission parts for an Ironhead sportster, if that counts for anything.

How about this: You have about 9 or 10 posts since joining here about a year ago. We have no idea who you are (I know, eBay feedback is bulletproof, but....) and you just decide to pop in and peddle some smokes that you don't care for anymore.

We're not Craig's list. We're not e-tobacco-Bay, We're not customer service. We're a community.

You might get a bite with some unknowing newblet, but we try to cut that shit off at the pass.

Oh. Ok, now that you put it that way, I guess it's all good.

There's a difference between hostile, and protective.

I now get that I can't sell them here, but like I said I'm very interested in trading and I'm curious as to what might be offered for one of these.

You could sell them here if you get some community rep / trading rep.

In light of your responses, I downgrade to douchecrank bearing. How's that?

Someone thought enough of you to give you a gift, and you're trying to trade it for as much as you can get? To a bunch of friends who you don't know, and who don't know you?

You also edited the above to remove your e-bay bullshit. And the fact that you were trying to SELL or trade them.

Really?, to the first sentence.
Without a doubt to the second.

Let's see, you edited your first post, so the posts following it don't make as much sense as they would have. I pointed that out. And, I like hash, especially corned beef.

What is the value then? You trading for specific cigars, a blinder of equivalent value....what exactly? Best offer things (auctions) don't happen here.

I like to smoke a cigar once every two weeks on average. Based on that I would much rather have several different cigars than 25 of the same cigar.

Exactly right, I know nothing about you. The occasional smoker thing makes sense.

Again, what are you valuing the cigars at, and what do you want in return?

20-25 dollars for a cubic centimeter?

What do I want in return? Blinders of equivalent value as you suggested would be perfect. I'd love to trade 3-for-1 for a CC valued in the 20-25 range.

How do you arrive at $8/stick value on these? CC or NC?
