I just went to a members profile, to a trader's comment I made in 2009. Within that comment, at the end, is a link [edit comment].

Thanks for the clarification.

For sure there was some bait and switch. With the profit margin he was making he could afford to do this. Look at all the time they put into the websites and creating this false identity. Myself and a few others for sure had some to get the taste right with the bait and switch. Why wouldnt they do this at this point anything is possible though

Which false identity?

Fyi, I smoked one of the boli regionas last night and it tasted right. This lends itself to the bait and switch idea. I would guess some of the other regional stock and production stuff was also legit, to encourage sales of the dubious products.

I'm thankful for being able to get my money back, although with a guy like TL, the second row of sticks could have been fakes and I wouldn't have caught it till I smoked one much later.
At least I can smoke it without that dreaded WTF after about an inch in.

Fwiw I haven't updated the list yet, it is going to take a litte work so probably not for a few days at least.

Did we ever hear what Limor did for a living? I got in late on the investigation but I am digging for a TL/Limor link.

We are working on that still. I smoked one of TL's Monte GR last night and I would say... it is definitely not what it is purported to be. I will have more comments after I try one of the GR from Limor's stock shortly.

Or you could post this on the Monte GR thread.
