    Report her shit to the BBB in Tampa. That kind of customer service needs to be addressed with people that make a difference.

    I guess I should clear this up and say that it technically was a private deal, and wasn't through the shop...the MO was mailed to she shop, but addressed to her.

    Guado is in Tampa... not sure if he can really help or not.

    Keep us updated.

    What a load of bullshit. That sucks drew. For a member of this board to do something like that to another is a damn shame. Good luck with how it ends up.

    I would call the shop and let them know what she did..... she technically stole your money using there name
    I'm not big on doing reviews, tobacco doesn't taste like "cocoa" or "nutty" or "mocha" to me, it tastes like freakin' TOBACCO. I know what I like and I really don't care what other people think of other cigars. I've never read a review and said to myself "Wow, that sounds like a cigar I'd like to try!"

    Not sure about this. I could be mistaken but it is my understanding that this was a private transaction and she was just using her shop as a pick up point, not representing that the shop was selling him the cigars.

    I agree with the first line, second line is a decision for her employer, but this last line is BS.
    It doesn't matter for shit if she is a single mom, or ran into some problems or any of that crap.
    At this point she is a thief, nothing less. No one should get chastised for pointing that out to anyone, certainly not someone she owes a fiduciary duty, namely her employer.
    Furthermore, this is the type of information that should be passed to an employer, especially in retail where shrinkage is one of, if not the most, problematic waste issues.

    I'm fairly new here, so I have to ask, has anyone else on the board had a bad exchange with TampaCigarGirl? She fucked up, but everyone does at some point. I'm curious to know if this has been resolved.

    To answer your second question highlighted in bold. The difference between up and mess up is this.

    up is when you screw someone on the board, don't keep in contact with them, don't update them on anything, and sometimes don't log on for a while (if ever again) to avoid the heat that will come from other members.

    Screw up or Mess up is when you screw the pooch, however, you keep in contact with the person that you have the transaction with, let them know what's going on, and try to make amends a.s.a.p. Most people understand and are very flexible.

    Now, if you screw up many times and we see a trend...that can lead to you being a up.

    However, every now and then...yes even the seasoned vets have a minor problem here and there, however they know what to do when they mess up...hence why we trust them.

    This was a personal transaction so her job is not really involved...But I have had some hard times and handled my business.

    A simple explaination and a prompt follow through would have been in order. She recieved her end so she is obligated hard times or not...Single mom excuses don't hold much water with me. If you are unable to do business...Don't.

    What's your word and good name worth...Much more than a few cigars.

    She owes more than an apology.... she owes someone some money. At this point she is a thief

    That is not my call..... IMO she got her employer involved the minute she had the money mailed there... whether she likes it or not she is a representative of the company... like nhcigarfan had mentioned, she has a fiduiciary duty to her company.... she seems to have dissapeared.... maybe she dissappeared from them too... she hasn't logged on since Jan 3, 2007.....

    SO.... should drew just suck it up and accept it as a loss because she is a single Mom and ran into some problems ??

    Just an update. I got back from the mountains and the snow was absolutely amazing. I had a great time and got to spend some time with the family.

    I got back today, checked my email and there was no tracking information. Also no package. School is really starting to pick up for me, so I guess I will give it a few days to see if anything comes in the mail. It might have been shipped out, but I just wasn't emailed the tracking.

    Still sounds like she hasn't done squat. A mature adult would have sent you the information letting you know that your end was taking care off as soon as possible. I'm not as optimistic as you.

    Where did she ever say that?

    Or did she ask you to post that information for her? How would you have knowledge about her AFTER she disappeared from here on January 3rd?

    Either way, she took someone's money and never sent the product for which someone paid for and that's pretty serious stuff and the bullshit excuses don't cut it here and wouldn't in a court of law either.

    From CigarPass:
    CC, in the very first post of this thread Drew makes mention of TampaCigarGirl saying "..something about personal issues." I don't detect any hints of collusion in BPP's post. TampaCigarGirl has been a member for a while, perhaps her single parent status came up some other time. I hope everything works out to Drew's satisfaction.

    TCG mentioned several times in the chat room that she was a single mom. It is no big secret. She even provided links to photos of her son.

    For an unmoderated board there sure do seem to be a lot of opinions as to what can and can't be posted lately.
