Default Re: Tat Drac: Shipping Date

Got an email from the local B&M that theirs are in. You have to buy a box of Tat brown label to be able to buy a box of Dracs or Boris. Singles are only available in a sampler...the cheapest one is $95 with tax

Why would he care? He has his money, why would he care what the retailer re-sold his product for?

Hey James, Got the same e-mail. Makes it a much easier decision to wash my hands of Tat and that shop. Need anything from Wilson?

I can't remember of having to buy anything to qualify to purchase an Opus.

Whatever happened to people doing the right thing because, it's the right thing to do?

I think some of the responsibility has to fall back onto Mr. Johnson to make sure his customers aren't being taken by greedy B&Ms and vendors. It really takes away from the enjoyment of the hobby.





Chris.....



P.S. I'll be staying away from the madness that the Drac has created.

I agree...but I still want them. I wish he would just make 50,000 boxes so everyone could get them...if they are as good as people say then they would sell no prob.

When Pete Johnson pockets the profits directly, HE is the reason for the ridiculous pricing, NOT the B&M stores.

Wow, 13 locations get the split of 1,000 boxes. And the B&M Owners are at fault for this??

Give me a break.

Explain to us what is "the right thing" here? Should I sell my four boxes -- 2 of each -- to one guy? I don't think that's right at all. Should I sell individual sticks to people that call-in from three states away to buy that one single cigar and will never buy anything else from me? What's "the right thing" when you get 46 total cigars and you've got people from all over the country calling and wanting "all you have?"

I'm selling one each of the Drac and Boris to people that buy ANY box of Tatuaje -- P Series included. I'm keystoning them and selling them at the proper price. If that's not fair or "right", no one will buy them and I'll be stuck with them I guess.
