Are you Happy with Dried Out Tobacco in a Trade?

No one give Big John lip:

Pull myself together?

Interesting... Have I been swearing at people? Have I been cruel to someone in particular?

I think you guys don't like what I'm saying because it reflects negatively on you. But, sorry, I am not saying anything unreasonable here.

You’ve taken the temperature of the group. And, you’ve also criticized those that have given you their thoughts …that you’ve seemed to have asked for. Or, otherwise you’re publicly calling out your trade partner? Understanding your frustration …maybe it’s time to move onto…️

Did I use his name or give any hint of who it really is?

I have already accepted that he screwed me over. Can't change it. Since you seem to be okay with it, perhaps people should avoid a lot of you guys as well.

So you don’t want people’s advice?
And, you’re not trying to subtly call anyone out in an effort to get them to feel bad about the trade?
And, you criticize every response that doesn’t seem to fit into your fantasyland idea that the world should be fair?
Why even bother posting this topic…bitch session? If that is the case…ok then…we’ve listened.

Again, …️

You are not cursing but you are pretty much insulting everyone and no one has said you deserve what you got. They simply stated what the belived and observed. You started this thread. You have twisted meanings into claiming they say its ok to rip people off. Im sorry but you are not hearing what people are telling you. You are reacting and then turning an angry and judgmental edge towards the community.

What do you want to hear? Do you want the number to the tobacco trading police?

Yes, it sucks. Yes, it happens. Yes, some peple are better at doing business than others. Exactly what is it you want to hear?

I will give you the benefit of the doubt on whether you're criticizing us or not. But, it is apparent that you aren't happy with your situation. Words are a funny thing. You may not mean for them to convey what they are conveying. But, that is how they read.

I think you wanted affirmation, but many of us just give away tobaccos or pipes sometimes. Some sell them to make money. Trades are a gray area. I hope that no one has ever felt slighted by me, but we will never know unless they tell us.

Maybe just send a friendly message explaining how you feel about the trade. Who knows, maybe the guy will do something to appease you... or they might block you, it's always a gamble how things pan out.

I wish you the best. But, I think at this point, many that are trying to explain why we think you are getting angry with US, is going to actually make you angry with us. You might want to request that a moderator close this thread for you... Just a suggestion.

+1 Yes, its not going anywhere good. I dont see anywhere it can go that will solve anything other than getting a lof of folks fired up.

Best to you all. Truly.

It's good to know that you have standards for your deals, as long as vintage tobacco isn't involved. -eye rolling-

Gotta head to work. Too many clients.
