Dave,

Also what I have done so far is make the new guys send there end first. If they are new I will not send my end till I have the product in my hand. If they do not want to do that then fine I do not want to do business with them. Any real BOTL will have no problem with doing that. That just makes me feel more comfortable trading with them. It is what I did when I got going and I still do. If im buying and I am the FNG ill send first no problem. But the problem is you have guys that always want something for nothing.
Why pay $100 on a therapy session when you can spend $25 on a cigar? Whatever it is will come back; so what, smoke another one.

Wise words indeed.  Still, in this medium there is risk to get burned.

IMO, FWIW, the spinning coin has nothing to do with the trust of the trading partner. Check the comments on the member's profile. That is what I did yesterday before spending more than I ever have and I am a new member so there was risk on both sides. The donation is because of the access to the best prices and cigars on the internet. And this is a courtesy to the house. The end.

Another way to thank Wade and show your support is to buy his wonderful coffee. Believe me, it's a win-win! :ordr:

Thanks
Yeah I would agree I spent some time looking at the comments, I will eventually get to know who is who. The donations or quarters to me show respect for paying ones own way. Then above someone showed reason to not contribute not being much of a buyer or seller he saw no reason to contribute.

I guess I can see all points of view! I am a buyer only though I may trade sometimes so if I start buying and am quick enough I will spend quite a bit. How about using the gift option if the seller requires it, one of the only times I had a purchase go bad was using the gift option with PP the buyer has no recourse doing it this way.

I still think I may have been mis understood I was mainly talking about the big buyers and sellers without the quarters, not the occasional users.

Thanks

Dave

Pretty much sums up my reason.  I'm just a buyer myself.  I'd much prefer to smoke them than sell them  ;D
