Default Re: Can't beat this deal!

I used to order mistakes all the time, from the three sisters, and then I started
to realize that you NEVER can win. You always end up being led around by the nose
by the vendor, leading to cancellations of orders, charge-backs to cards, all the
bad things. I ordered 10 boxes of Culebras for 42 dollars a box, then they wanted me to
pay something like 700 bucks and I told them to get F-ing bent.
So when I see something too good to be true, I usually ignore it.
Like 800 for a box of cigars that aren't even Cue-bin.

This was actually too bad to be true, Brad.

A while back one of the sisters listed Parti Luci 10's for approximately 35% of their current price. I ordered 3 boxes, with the idea that I'd keep 2 for myself, and do a nice contest with the third. A couple days later I got an email that the price was wrong, and was quite a lot more, so I cancelled the order. I can understand when the price is $0.00 that they can't give them away, but if they list the wrong price on their website, then they should be willing to live up to their error. I sure know in my business that our customers aren't going to let us wiggle out of a pricing mistake. Eat the cost, fix the problem, make sure it doesn't happen again; but keep the customer happy.
