I try to stay out of the drama so not sure why I'm starting this post... probably cuz of all the wine I drank tonight! LOL But how many Behikes can one person sell before someone calls them out on selling for profit?!? It's not like someone bought 15 boxes of each and then just decided to sell a few.
(In full disclosure... yes I sold a partial box of 52's and 54's but I never intended to and could not justify keeping expensive cigars when I needed to buy other things as much as I wanted to.)

Given that the prices have come down, I don't know that anyone is selling these for profit compared to what they may have very well paid on them. You should probably lay off the sauce.

First off, people can sell their smokes for whatever they want here, if you dont like the price dont pay it!
Second, I think you are correct the, Behike craze is calming. Hopefully we will be back to normal pricing in the near future, and by "normal" I mean 30-38 a stick depending on size. Always gonna be an expensive stick, but I have noticed stock at vendors and slightly more reasonable pricing.

If you were to try and keep up with and post about who is selling for profit here, you'd have time for little else in life. The policy of the site, and my personal opinion, is that it's really [u]none of your business[/u]. If you want the product, and feel the price is fair, buy. If you feel that the price is too high, don't buy. If you think that the seller is making a profit, and don't approve, make a mental note. But I feel pretty safe in saying that not too many give a shit about your approval.
On a related note....I bought a couple of boxes of BHKs a while back at WELL over the current prices. I knew the price was high at the time...I knew the seller was probably making a few bucks. I wanted the product and, for a variety of reasons, was willing to pay the asking price. What he paid is [u]none of my business [/u] :)

I don't know where people get the idea that the people selling here are not selling for profit. Or should not. Almost are all in one form or another. Never got that. That is how markets are created.
The thing with Triple Ligero had nothing to do with him selling for profit. It had to do with him selling fakes and lying.

This.
I think that is the very essence of what makes this site work.
If you want it fine, if not move on. Free market is the backbone of what makes this place tick

I agree with most all of your statements. I don't have an issue with the rules of this website or that people are going to profit on some sales. I just find it funny that the same person can sell so many Behikes over an extended time, just looks pretty damn obvious he's flipping them like crazy.

People who buy CCs/HTF sticks just to flip them for profit make me sick.
Same with concert tickets. Let the people who want em buy em. Greedy bastids today.
