My Best Buy EVER

[toasty]

Well, after about a month of searching everywhere, my regular cigar shop (Vilar Cigars) told me that Macabi on 8th street had about half a box left of the Opus X Perfexion's. So straight after work today I headed straight to Macabi. They had a limit of two, but I sweet talked the guy into giving me 4. I guess he was so used to ringing up the 2 limit, but I realized when I was in the car he had only charged me $30.00 for all 4 of the Opus's. So yeah...one hell of a buy...4 Fuente Fuente Opus X's for $7.50 a piece. I'm so tempted to light one up, but am wanting to let them age....dunno what to do as far as smoking one...let's see if I can avoid the temptation. Just had to brag about the great buy.

my guess is that your good luck will be his bad luck....he'll get charged for the cigars...so today he gets screwed...if you were prepared to pay for four...i'd go back and tell him you caught the mistake.....that's what i'd do...your mileage may vary..

[toasty]

Do you really think that he'll be responsible for the 2? If that's the case then yeah, I'll true up when I go in on Friday. $30.00 is a lot to a guy that's probably only making $7.00 an hour. I think they are called the Opus X Perfexion's but I'm not sure. It's wrapped in Cedar with a Red Ribbon wrapped around the tip. The band says Fuente Opus X Rare Estate Reserve. Any idea exactly which Opus this is?

Well, MSRP on Perfecxion #5's is $7.50. However, average price paid, according to top 25 is $9. There are 5 sizes (and prices) of Perfecxions.

If they cost $7.50 each and you paid 30 bucks for 4, sounds like no foul. But it wouldn't hurt to call and ask anyway. The next time you ask for a favor I'll bet you'll get it.

you "sweet-talked" him into selling you four cigars...that's what he gave you...that's what you should pay for...if the $30 was too much for you then you should have bought just two....or something that was more affordable....as for waiting 'til friday...how about if he gets fired because of the favor and the mistake....live with that!!!...



he did you a favor...made a mistake...man up and bring him the extra money or the two cigars...

hey toasty...i don't give a fuck about the protests and such...right is right...and you're wrong here....

Ok dude...I'm done with this whole conversation. As I already said, it wasn't till I was GONE that I realized what had happened. I doubt $30 short is going to cost someone their job like was brought up. Like I said, wtf is going on here. If I just said, I went in and had a guy picking up some damn Cheapos and took the cigars out of the box while his back was turned, then yeah...bring all the OUTRAGE and drama. I paid $30.00. If the MSRP was $30.00 total, isn't it remotely possible that that's the real price and I thought it should have been a lot more expensive when all these websites are selling them for $40.00 a piece? There is no itemized receipt, just my credit card receipt.

Toasty, you gotta be shittin' us here. So if, say in a group buy, where you sent in enough money for 10 AF 858 sungrowns, and say, cigarsarge sent in enough for 15 cigars, and I accidentally sent you the 15 and sarge the 10 . . . are you saying sarge would just be shit out of luck? Thanks for the warning dude - I'll know to never ever trade with you. jeezus, just shoot me in the fucking head.

Now go back and pay that man his fucking money!!

Wow dude, you're acting like I stole something. I realized the fact after I got into the car and was on the way home. In Miami, WHILE all the bullshit protests and traffic was hell. I'm going back there on Friday as I said, and true up then. And yeah, I've had 1 trade so far, and haven't "fucked" anyone over. I got this from a store, not a person...not a trade. So whatever man...you're quick to be a real jerk, and flipping out when you don't even know me.

Wow dude, you DID steal something! Calling this a "good deal" when in reality it is you benefitting from the guy's mistake is the same mentality as breaking any law and saying "it ain't wrong as long as I don't get caught."

And, the part about "I realized the fact after . . ." hmm, dubious. And, what the hell does bullshit protests and traffic have to do with this besides you attempting to change the subject. And, you ain't seen flipped out. And, where do you get off calling me a jerk after coming on here and bragging for cryingoutfuckingloud about ripping somebody off??

edit: Know you??? Goddamn!! You got that shit right - all I know is what you show right here on this board . . . I know all I want to know!! Stop being a fucking pinhead man!!
