Default Re: Moral Dilemna...

Just to let everyone know I did contact the vender and let them know. I have made arrangments to actualy keep them. (I called them back and said I wanted to keep them. they are already here after all.) So I paid for them and they are mine.

They were even nice enough to give me a discount on the package since they didn't have to pay to have it shipped back. So everything worked out great.

As for the WTT or WTS threads, I don't tend to post. I like hording.

But thank you everyone for helping me to beat temptation off with a stick. Otherwise my fellow BABOTL would have been cleaning out my humi according to Darrel.

I would imagine that smoking any of those sticks would've left a nasty taste in your mouth! Cuz, YOU would know deep down inside that they weren't really yours!

In the end, you are honest or not! I know most of us would be upset if they received 1/2 of their order, so treat the seller the way you would want to be treated

Glad you did the right thing...

Integrity is worth way more than a box of smokes.

I had this happen years ago with a vendor who sent me out two extra bundles of cigars that were not boxed but were put in a bag with pillows. When I called him and told him the mistake he said if they were in a box that was sealed he'd want them back but since they were shipped in a bag that were already handled he couldn't "ethically" take them back because they were not a boxed item. He told me to keep them and I have been a customer ever since and that has been 15 years running. It's always a good idea to tell the truth and do the right thing.

You did the right thing by contacting the vendor, there's nothing like going to sleep without guilt.

It's nice to get free stuff, but I would make the call just to get it off my conscious.
