Generally Speaking.....

[Da Klugs]

Almost everyone here is a true brother/sister of the leaf. Almost is not 100%. In buying or selling heartache can occur for "he who ships first" based upon finding out you are dealing with an exception to your insulated view of our circle of trust here.

Generally speaking, sellers who have built experience and trust here should require any buyer to send payment first. Buyers should look beyond the numbers to ensure that there is a diverse experience vs all with one or 2 folks when choosing to accept this liability.

Generally speaking, if you are a new seller here it is not unreasonable for buyers who have built credibility here to ask for you to ship first. Accepting this risk is part of the process of becoming trustworthy to many here and the same words of caution apply to your decisions.

Cigar Asylum is not the guarantor of transactions here other than failure to satisfy obligations is grounds for being removed from the forum.

Use common sense, ask questions and don't let zeal overcome a natural level of caution that should be exercised in any financial transaction.

Generally speaking what Da Klugs said sounds like a bad thing. Sorry to who ever got the raw end of a deal.

Generally speaking the folks at the Cigar Asylum are a forgiving, helpful, kind bunch of people. Take the time to note what a thread is meant for and be cognizant of making posts that are within the expectations of the Original Poster's intent. It isn't necessary to make fun of everything and everyone, caution when dealing with folks that you haven't corresponded with before is a good idea.

Having said that I would caution those of us that tend to leap into the fray and chastise folks for their behavior in a thread to remember that all of us have stepped offside at one point or another and to temper your response with compassion.

Generally speaking it's a good idea to leave your post up on your screen and read it at a later time if you are typing emotionally, before hitting submit.
