[CoventryCat86]

Prolly time you start to learn how to read...

[snapback]221279[/snapback]​

Yeah... hooked on phonics taught me a lot... learned yesterday...

BTW: Nice Jag...

Dammit you got me........

Oh and age, particularly from someone who's only 20 years old certainlly does have something to do with if you've heard of a vendor or not. Cliff there are far too many people that have forgotten more about cigars than you've learned at your ripe old age of 20. Just a hint for ya, when you make posts know-it-all posts in threads particularly for a new SPONSOR, you're going to get some ribbing at the very least and possibly a more direct smack down from someone who isn't as nice as I am.

[snapback]221285[/snapback]​

CC ... Read between the lines above... the answer is to your "superior knowledge" is in your own paragraph.

Any questions?

I'm not claiming that I have any "superior knowledge" in that paragraph and you are one funny dude :laugh:

I love morenoloco :love:

 

[CoventryCat86]

I like Cliff too

If I didn't, I wouldn't give him a hard time every now and then, I'd just ignore him.

It's easy to sully a persons reputation on the internet. In this day in age, it's tough for the younger guys to build a good and solid reputation if you keep hammering at them.

Given that you are 20 years older and wiser, I'd expect that you take this into account. Then again, I only learned how to read yesterday thanks to hooked on phonics...

 

[CoventryCat86]

Ah, I don't think it's as easy as ya think I highly doubt very many people are going to think considerably more or less of someone based on a post from me, I'm just one lone voice in a sea of thousands or millions. A person's reputation is much more of a function of how THEY handle themself rather that what one person says about them.

Honestly, I didn't mean to "hammer" Cliff, I was just tryin' to have some fun with him. Most people who know me know that and you know enough about me to know that too (I thought).

I'm 20 years older but you're giving me WAY too much credit if you think I'm "wiser" Wise a$$ maybe but wiser? I dunno about that.....

I wonder if Cuban Lou can get the new Punch Robustos that are only available to the swiss market at this time at a good price.

Maybe a box share is in order. This way we can see how good the service and quality is.

I will email and see if he gets back to me now.

 

[RPB67]

Request has been sent to Cuban Lous.

 

[cvmfour]

Never heard of'em before...I'll let other try'em out first. Glad to have you though.

[snapback]220125[/snapback]​

:laugh: It wasn't legal for you to smoke cigars until two years ago, who you kiddin'? :laugh:

[snapback]220429[/snapback]​

It still doesn't seem right that they operate out of Canada and their warehouse is in Switzerland. Not to mention all these sites popping up now-a-days proclaiming to sell "real cuban cigars." Ya'll have fun with this one and I'll stick with the tried and true vendors.

[snapback]220471[/snapback]​

No, what STILL doesn't seem right is someone who's only been LEGALLY smoking cigars for two years making comments like "never heard of them" followed up by more nonsense about Canada/Switzerland.

I've seen and heard of Cuban Lou's before Cliff, I dunno where you've been (other than CigarWeekly & BOTL) but this guy ain't no cuban-cigar-deal.com or hidalgohabanos.com

I'm perplexed at your seemingly "know-it-all" attitude regard sources of cuban cigars when:
1. You've only been buying them for a less than one year.
2. Cuban Lou is known in cigar circles and his site is not an obvious scam site like cuban-cigar-deal.

[snapback]221211[/snapback]​

Also:

1. You took my "I've never heard of'm before" comment and blew that out of proportion.
2. You make a cheap shot at me. Did I do this back to you? No, I didn't
3. It doesn't matter when I could legally start buying cigars. It matters when you get into the hobby. Age has nothing to do with whether you have heard of a vendor or not.

[snapback]221252[/snapback]​

LMAO!! Blew what out of proportion? I was just havin' a little fun with ya and you seem to have gotten your panties all in a bunch, hardly a "cheap shot", grow some skin junior.

I didn't claim to know **** Bill! I said I never heard of them before...Does that seem like a know it all when I proclaim to have never heard of them. There are so many vendors out there, just like there are so many cigar sites. Excuse me if I don't know them all.

I also like the singling out done to me:

You could have taken the opportunity and used your FOGness to actually explain something to a younger guy like me. But I guess that's just too much to ask for.

 

[AVB]

Does anybody want to volunteer themselves for me to pick on? It seems like a great way to post pad 20+ extra posts a day.

 

[SamClemmons]

I seem to remember cliffy doing some "reputation building" a while back. Can't remember what exactly... and I could be wrong... eggs is ready. Bu-bye.

NA

Sam,
You can tell me "Bu-bye" when I actually do something wrong. I don't think voicing my opinion is "Bu-bye" material

Did you read any of my posts AFTER this one that you quoted? It mighta helped.....

 

[ggiese]

Never heard of'em before...I'll let other try'em out first. Glad to have you though.

[snapback]220125[/snapback]​

Hmmmm.... Okay, let me get this straight... We got "Great site...", "glad to have ya'", Welcome aboard...", "Welcome the new advertiser..."... "drop the shipping costs...." etc. and then we get to Cliff's post.... "Never heard of 'em before.." I'm not trying to read into that at all, but is pretty odd compared to the others, wouldn't you say?

To me - and this is only me - it seems like:

a) a newbie who has never heard of Cuban Lou's before and is curious (doesn't sound like that describes Cliff) -or-

b) sounds like a challenge as to the legitimacy of Cuban Lou's from someone who is experienced in online vendors, from someone who's been around for a while and theoretically should know.

I don't see that there's a third choice there, unless maybe you read through the lines. And in that case, I'd think you'd read that maybe someone made a faux pas in their original post...

Maybe I'm reading into it, maybe CC and SamClemmons are giving Cliff more credit than he deserves, but that seems to me to be a challenge to Cuban Lou's from someone who's got a pretty high post count, and has been around the cigar circles for a while - and I think Cliff SHOULD clarify his position. Maybe if Cliff was joking, or truly didn't know who this vendor was and had questions, rather than jumping on the offensive he could just have said, "Really, I've never heard of them and I was just curious about their reliability, legitimacy, reputation, etc. Has anyone every heard of them and what can you tell me..." Seems to me that would have cleared it up in one post...

And I'm curious, morenoloco - would you be allowed the lattitude in saying the things you've said to established members here at the other board you frequent...

I too will volunteer. Give it too me!!!

[snapback]221393[/snapback]​

No really, I meant what I said...I'VE NEVER HEARD OF THEM BEFORE. Not that hard to understand Once you've been around for a while you start to know who the legit vendors are, etc. My post was not meant to disrespect the vendor in question. But, I have truely never heard of them. Now would someone like to give me details as to his product, what his service is like, shipping time, real world orders? ???

I really don't see the necessary pile-on here. If I see a reputable person say they have ordered from them and everything was fine, then it's settled. Until then, the jury is still out on MY opinion of'm.

 

[mrjinglesusa]

I have not heard of them either but that does not mean they are not a good vendor. It's always nice to have options in who one orders from. The prices are competative on some things, not so much on others. Charging for shipping is what would steer me away from them as EVERY vendor I use does not charge for shipping and has similiar, if not lower, prices.

That said, it is up to the individual whether or not they will use a vendor thay have never heard of before. When I first started, I had to do my own research as the more experienced members are not keen on divulging the sources they have worked to aquire. This is the main reason why I don't talk about the sources I use. If someone asks about a specific vendor through PM, I will try my best to relay my experience with them (if any). Otherwise, you are on your own as far as I am concerned, just as I was.

 

[cvmfour]

I agree Jim...Even with the RTR at CW, this vendor was never listed. And they had some VERY good vendors listed on that damn list :angry: . I do plan on sticking with my main vendors, because that's what gets you better service from repeat business instead of bargain shopping or vendor swapping.

I wish Lou all the best on this site :thumbs:

 

[ggiese]

I guess, Cliff, you don't understand the meaning of your initial post. You do carry a certain amount of credibility with members of this board. After all, you've been around for a while, and are know to have cigars others would find hard to get. So when you post something like "never heard of them" - whether you intended to or not - you drew attention to the fact that Cuban Lou's may NOT be a legit vendor - seeing as how you have never heard of them. So if it were me (and this is only me) and I was faced with the same circumstances and I was truly interested in Cuban Lou's, I would have posted something to the effect: "Has anybody had any dealing with Cuban Lou's? Can you give me your thoughts?" I think you can see from the context of my post, that your statement evokes emotion, mine evokes thought.
