Shipping Screw Up = Free Cigars Contest

edited February 2023 in Trades, Passes and Bombs

So, here's the deal...I ordered myself a box of Long Live the Queen (LLTQ) Toros back a few weeks ago with some other accoutrements. Got the other items in but got the wrong box of cigars, LLTQ but robustos. No problem, I've never had issues with this small California retailer, so I call them up, and they put another box in the mail, the same day. I get the 2nd box in the mail 3 days later (great service!), but it's the exact same, WRONG box of cigars. I call them up again, and am real nice about it. The guy about has a conniption, curses himself out on the phone with me while I'm trying not to laugh. He says that he will personally go down and pack the correct box and send it out same day; he says to go ahead and keep one of the two wrong boxes of robustos but asks kindly that I send back the 2nd. I tell him that I'll send back the two, I just want the box I ordered.

He's real nice about it and says, "obviously, you were meant to have one of those boxes". Another 4 days later, I get the correct box of cigars I ordered and sent back one of the two wrong boxes. Overall, great service from a small batch company out of California, and a free box of cigars for whoever wins this contest.

Now for the contest, you must be on the good trader's list, or have someone vouch for you.

    Sent, I might have to bomb @Bob_Luken since he's the reason I won, or maybe just wait until I see him in April (hopefully).

    I literally did nothing. Glenn and Colleen deserve all the credit! It takes the whole Hee Haw gang to really make that photo.

    Combined with my disagree, that may have come across as harsh. I was just trying to avoid the bomb. It was a joke, but so badly made I got an "insightful" from Calvin instead of an LOL. To be clear, I love the photo, especially Glenn and Colleen being there. I got a big laugh seeing it again, and I'm glad you won, I'll gladly help you smoke your winnings in Milwaukee.

    Don't worry, you misunderstand my insightful. I knew it was a joke, the insightful is a nefarious insightful, because I might have to get Glenn too since you mentioned it.
