Threadjack question: Weren't the 858 SGs all rolled in 2001 anyway and are put into boxes annually as new releases?

No one is saying different we were just shocked and hoping it was a simple mistake. I have made them and am reasonably sure most have. But it's been so long I tend to agree with you.

The main issue of annoyance is the constant "mistakes". To recap just one element of it:
He said he would ship the same day if I paid "right away" on the 30th
Then I hear nothing for three days when he e-mailed and said he would ship on "Monday" with tracking info
Then he emails on "Tue" and says sorry I didn't make it yesterday it will ship today.
Then I hear nothing back for TWO WEEKS, no responses to e-mails PM's etc when i get an e-mail saying it was a screw up not on his part that his girlfriend forgot to ship it, on the 13th he was going to ship it on the 16th the Monday with tracking info sent after it goes out.
Then I hear nothing until Tuesday the 17th when he e-mailed and said it went out on the Tuesday instead of Monday but didn't send a DC or Tracking number. Today is the 21 and the average Priority mail shipment is 3 days which would've had it here Friday, excuse me for thinking even if he has 150,000 posts and the Angels of Heaven dance when he posts on a different forum, this whole thing was a mess and i've been MORE than patient as I can assure you many others here would've been blowing up this guys phone already besides sending the 2 polite e-mails I sent. If you give your word and a "mistake" happens, people understand, if you screw up your word this many times there is simply no excuse. Still no tracking number as of the 21st, it could show up today or Monday in which case the dropping of the ball on his side isn't a simple mistake, it's a disregard for someone that made an instant payment and held my word. If it was me, I would've sent the funds back and apologized for the screw up. I just thank myself that out of all the purchases i've made him I only ran into this kinda of person once, i've had some great purchases here and love it. I will keep right on buying like normal. :bigup:

It shouldn't take a month to complete a simple deal. You need to leave this guy a negative trader comment, no matter how this unfolds. No one should have to deal with this BS and the frustration of not knowing where you stand on any deal.
Your honest comment could prevent someone else from dealing with this exact scenario again from this douchebag seller.

Well it arrived today on the 21st but as expected the e-mail he sent on Tuesday saying it had been shipped out was again not accurate the stamped postage date on it was the 19th (I shipped almost daily for business and they stamp this when you are at the counter). It's just unfortunate that the guy couldn't shoot straight with me and say he's not good at getting things out timely and that he would get it out at some point. Thanks for all the input along the way.

I guess the important thing is you got the cigars. Sucks you had to wait so long but better than getting completely stiffed. Leave T/C and enjoy the cigars!
