He can give you the full account since he wants to keep dragging his mess onto other boards. The irony of the whole situation is hilarious as I was the one who defended him in his posts for his over priced goods.

Please bring forth one shred of evidence that I have ripped anyone off. Too funny!
LMFAO!!!!
I was banned from BOTL for a month for telling the Jackhole mods exactly what I thought of the site in a PM to them.

So your not a thief then :rotf: :rotf: :rotf:. Maybe Vegan/Francophile can explain why he would accuse you of this then?

Vegan/Francophile, coming to OLH and calling JxBr a thief is a bold move. Unless you back it up right quick with some undisputable evidence you will be looked upon by most here as nothing more then a shit slinging, trolling, POS. The ball is in your court.

Reading comprehension would help here.
Vegan702 said that JxBr was ripping off folks.
Then the reading-comprehension-impaired (i.e., stepthirteeen and knuck42) claimed that Vegan702 called JxBr a "thief"
Too, too funny.
"Rip Off" ≠ "Thief"
E.g., gouger = "Rip Off" ≠ "Thief"
What you should be really be asking yourself is why JxBr made the asshole move of - under false pretenses - directing folks looking for certain cigars to PM vegan702. All just for his own little selfish attempt to get "revenge" for some perceived slight on a completely DIFFERENT website. What a punk move. I don't know either of these two jabronis nor could I care about either one of them, but I calls em as I sees em.

Prob shouldnt type this, but just to clear things up...neither Francophile nor Vegan were calling anyone a thief. the original ISO thread that was started was for Franks, started by Franco. JxBr commented saying that he knew someone who had Franks for a cheap price, posting the guy's screen name in the thread knowing he would get blown up at the other site, without the guy having anything for sale. Was done because JxBr tried to gouge, or should I say prison rape, brothers on the site for similar but not exactly the same sticks, for a ridiculous price. I am also a member of the same site and it was a RIDICULOUS price! Vegan confronted him about it he claimed he "needed quick cash"... Didnt know desperate times called for gouging fellow BOTLs...Now granted he prob shouldnt have been called out on it the way he was but still no excuse...and the only reason I give a :finger: is because I mentioned the issue to Vegan once his name popped up in a thread. Not cool at all in my book to do that just because you got called out for gouging.

I would personally smoke/drink/trade with JxBr with out hesitation. :cheers:
From the sound of things [u]some[/u] of the folks from the Bend Over Then Lube forum probably not so much. Just MHO of course, YMMV.

So glad to see your intellect is superior to mine, however ripoof can and does imply thief. I asked the accusing individual to explain the issue so that we are all able to see which definition appllies. A search brings up several definitions and that is precisely the reason I asked the situation to be explained in detail-
1st defintion-
rip off (plural rip-offs)
(countable) A bad deal; an unfair price or rate.
A theft or robbery.
A scam.
A copy, especially one that is illegal or inferior.
2nd defintion-
Main Entry: ripoff
Pronunciation: \ˈrip-ˌȯf\
Function: noun
Date: 1969
1 : an act or instance of stealing : theft; also : a financial exploitation
2 : a usually cheap exploitive imitation
3rd definition-
Main Entry: rip off
Function: transitive verb
Date: 1967
1 a : rob; also : cheat, defraud b : steal
2 : to copy or imitate blatantly or unscrupulously
3 : to perform, achieve, or score quickly or easily <ripped off 10 straight points>
These definitions are precisely why I asked for the accusor to explain the situation. Not you the accusor.

Well I guess he fits your very first definition then, an unfair price or rate which makes him a thief. From the response he got on the other board it was pretty obvious his goods were at an unfair price.
How anyone can put me and francophile as the same person is beyond me, but then again the level of intelligence on this board wowed me when the mods allowed a dispute from another board to spill over onto their board and encouarged it to continue, anything for new members or views I guess.
I highly doubt I would sign on with a new screen name to start a ISO post hoping that a dumbass such as JxBr would post instructing me to contact someone else to find those sticks.
Just smoked a VSG round last night JxBr, it was eh, certainly not worth your $40 per stick asking price, more in line with the $25 link that was posted for them in your FS thread.
