Free Tobacco

Ok, I'm going to post this publicly, mainly because I don't have the time to go back through this thread and sort through ALL of the back and forth.

Let me make this crystal clear to everyone... it's actually a pretty simple concept. If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all. If you don't like what someone posted, or you think that it looks fishy, you PM either myself or Papipeguy (John).

I've had about enough of people thinking they should play "traffic cop" and point out what they think is right or wrong about someones post, offer, tobacco choice or whether they like to eat their boogers or not.

Consider this a warning. If it continues, I'll followup with individuals directly.

This is a big sandbox. Let's treat each other with respect and kindness. End of story.

There have been no requests in the past two days, so I am closing the sample case. For those of you who requested tobaccos, barring any unforeseen circumstances, it will go out tomorrow.

Just to make sure we are on the same page, I am going to repeat some things and add a few new rules. This is my game, so I can do that.

When you get your tobacco, check the packaging to see what the shipping was. If it was $3 or under, we are square. If it was over, please drop a couple bucks in the mail to help with the postage.

The first new rule concerns postage costs. Do not send over two or three dollars regardless of actual shipping price. If the costs were not to the next dollar just send one. For example, if it was $4.57, one dollar is sufficient. $5.97, two dollars. No rounding up.

The second new rule is if you are not happy with your tobacco for any reason, don't send any money regardless of shipping cost. If one of the baggies came open, tobacco is too dry, one of the new tins had a bad seal, or anything else, keep your funds.

The third new rule is that it is expressly forbidden to send me anything besides the above stated amounts for postage. If you feel you need to do something in return, then pay it forward and not back. Do someone else a kindness sometime.

It should be apparent to everyone by now that I do not always play well with others. Another thing everyone one should have figured out is that I am stubborn enough to argue with a tree until it admits I am right. Therefore if someone wishes to try and go against any of the above stated rules, please know the only thing you will accomplish will be a test of the United States Postal Service and how they treat a package that is returned unopened no matter how many times it is sent.

Thank you for your time and attention.
