I won't name him yet as he has contacted me since I made this post and says he will make it right. So I will give him until Friday. I have bought many cigars online and one of the criteria that I use is, the first order is always placed by phone while I check inventory, they told me they had the 55's, Classics, and Signatures on hand, were waiting on the 48's to arrive. Sounded reasonable to me.
My biggest problem - and I don't want this to sound stupid or arrogant, so this may not come across as I intend, but here goes- I had ordered/bought too many boxes to keep track of, and I forgot about these for a week or so. While at the GA herf, Pep reminded me of the order and I realized that they had not come in yet, so I got on the phone to find out what was going on. So part of this is my own fault.
But the guy sounded alot more concerned on this last call & wasn't defensive or accusatory, so I'll wait until Friday to see what happens.
And Skipper, I was having flashbacks too. It's not the same guy and they came from a thread posted here, so I wasn't overly cautious. And hey, he could be OK & UPS screwed the pooch, we all know it happens.
