Buyer Beware -

[quote][b]I know this is extremely difficult for some of you to grasp[/b]...but this was my point all along...I have decent feedback here as well as a long history on other boards...and at the end of the day all it means is that there is empirical evidence to suggest that engaging in a transaction with my username will be positive..nothing more nothing less.  I gave my 2 cents on Luke and his sale...the lot of you all from CF took it upon yourselves to ask me to guarantee the transaction or [b]discredited my 2 cents because I am not from CF [/b] and dont stroke your rods...thats it...enjoy your day and move on to the next display of internet strength...but please know this...you dont know anything more than me or the next guy when it comes to fine cigars, scams, or overweight women (well maybe that last one)...you just THINK you do.  [b]Ok?  See ya[/b][/quote]


[quote]What's the over/under on this assclown pulling the, "This is all so immature and beneath me that I'm done trying to convince you unintelligent fools what the read deal is!", bullshit?  LMAO![/quote]

Hope somebody won themselves some dough on this one though it was a quicker flame out than most.  Whoda thunk heda crumpled so quickly?

Please know that my OP was not to challenge any of what you say about yourself in the above quote, only that any guys thinking about buying should do their due diligence and vet all of it out, as they should with ANY seller, before proceeding with the transaction, not because said transaction would be with you, but because engaging in due diligence is prudent.  It just happened to be your thread that got used because it was an example excellent of what to look for.  No doubt you're on the up and up, scammers LOVE to look that way as it makes their job all the easier.  Can't say I have any use for your friend flash and his sophomoric approah to the free exchange of ideas though.

I understand of course.  Anyone with half a brain would do their DD for a box of Monte 4's let alone any HTF stuff.  If not, then you can't defend stupidity.  

As regards Flash, I can see how he rubs people the wrong way but it seems there's too many thin-skinned BOTL's around the boards these days.  Flash speaks his mind, doesn't compromise his positions and is full of integrity.  I've never heard a bad word said about the guy regarding any trades, passes, splits etc.  In fact, we were both ripped off by some jag-off who hosted a split on CA.  Anyway, he's a good dude and I would vouch for him any day.

For the record, I love Johnny-O's sticks, and have met and smoked with one of the resident homos at CF, LenDog.  You aren't all bad over there.  ;D

 Just to continue(or re-iterate) Bill's point- this thread's continued posts have less to do with you, habanophile, and more to do with flash's jump to name-calling and taking every negative reply as a personal attack.  I agree- some people here are [i]definitely[/i] thin-skinned.

I gave my 2 cents on Luke and his sale...the lot of you all from CF took it upon yourselves to ask me to guarantee the transaction or discredited my 2 cents because I am not from CF and dont stroke your rods...thats it...enjoy your day and move on to the next display of internet strength

Don't start patting yourself on the back yet.  This had nothing to do about CF and everything about your comment.  I'd make the same question/comment to anyone CF or not.  Ask Sig about that if you don't believe me.  He was a Cfer for years, but when the whole TL thing went down I called him on his comments.  His same type of comments as yours helped spread false belief in the product being sold.  I simply asked you if you would back that up.  That would explain very quick if it was just a comment or you really felt that way.  In your case you just went defensive and all high school.

[mbflash80]

Fuente Fan you asked me to guarantee the 3k...and Sig threw bananas around and encouraged people repeatedly to deal with TL...VERY different than what I did...I simply presented the fact that I had done many transactions with Luke and considered him good people...I dont care about pissing people off...and I dont pretend to be perfect...there is no trophy being handed out to the victor of this thread (maybe Knuck thinks there is?)...anyway...thats how I see it... 

[Johnny-O!]

Flashy...I think you have a conceptual problem. My $5 cigars are a scam? Maybe the $3K your buddy is asking seems more credible to you, dunno. But I'm sure since he asked you to be his advertising director, those 'gars will sell easy. Might I add if you do a search on any forum you will find more positive feedback on my cigars than negative. In fact if you look for negative feedback the search leads back to you foaming at the mouth about a $5 cigar. Your buddy comes rolling in here talking about your integrity. I'd be embarrased to have a friend like you. Your vile, vulgar childish behavior should not be confused with integrity. And here's the kicker...your buddy tried to play it off that there was no interest at OH for his cigars and for everyone not to worry, because there just was no interest....right? Well, I get a back door message from your buddy telling me to back off any negative comments to his attempted cigar sale. So you see, you and your buddy are the losers. You get last place and second to last place. Here is my prediction: You've pissed a lot of people off. Some that even haven't come forward. From now on, everything you do here at OH will be get crushed. Somehow I think you'll find your way back to CA with your Swisher Sweets and your nickel and dime trades. John

[mbflash80]

lol...John...another feeble attempt to frame an absurd perspective...it does not matter to me whether I sell another cigar in my life...this is a hobby partner...your interest is much more vested than mine.  remember that...the "backdoor messages" are also being sent regarding you and your yard sale smokes.

Funny how perceptions can change on a dime.  This thread has made me lose a ton of respect for certain people...

I've had some superb Johnny O's.  Which reminds me, Johnny we were taking about a sampler a while back, I'd love to tie up the loose ends and pick some up :).  What do you have in a 46 and thinner RG?
