You have received pretty much a consensus here. And I agree.

So to answer your question, use a phrase made well-known by D.A.R.E.

Just say No.

And if they don't like it, coin another phrase I use often (and is a favorite of LasciviousXXX's):

Tough Noogies !

When it comes to Opus/HTF Fuentes: it doesn't take alot to find sources for yourself. I wouldn't give up a local B/M, etc... because inevitably the source WILL get ruined everytime! When I'm asked I give the same standard 3sources without hesitation: Holts, TS and Famous. At least I know they stick to the limit policies and have enough stock that they usually don't dry up so quickly. Giving out HTF Fuente sources is like telling your salary to your coworkers; it will only cause bad felings in the end. I have aquired quite a few sources from here and CS and I don't want them ruined. I bought some Opus from you as well at just about MSRP which was more than fair in my book. I don't think I've ever seen anyone give you a bad comment. The person who got pissed at you can go pound sand as I think your sales are well above the board. They are your sources to do with as you please and I say loose lips sink sources ( or something like that )

It all gets easier to avoid answering the question when you get old. "Um I got those from . . . now lemme think - what the hell is that name - crap I forgot - it will come to me one day - damn."

And people believe you . . . cause your old.

Most of the time though I sound like that when I'm seriously trying to answer the question -
