CanuckSARTech Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 And hey, dung happens. Rob and I (and Smithy and I, and Diana and I - my bad, sorry guys!) had a number of e-mails back and forth with this last night. About all the confusion and whatnot with this situation, and the waitlist and orders, and all that jazz. Dude, I was FRUSTRATED, and just absolutely needed to vent. Frustrated, yes, but Rob went to great lengths to explain it individually to me, which I honestly know he really didn't NEED to do (I'm just one of many with this). But I can't tell you the times I've wished for a simple explanation for someone explaining a mistake somewhere in some past business dealings I've had, rather than the good ol' towing of the company line, and some PR double-speak. Rob discussed it with me (which he did NOT absolutely have to do - he was more than generous in the amount of time, and lengthy typing it took, to explain the whole kit and kaboodle to me). That's a huge show of integrity and respect in my books - not many business people have it anymore, nor the amount of customer-relations accumen that he presented to me, especially with this situation. He did not need to invest/waste/spend his time discussing it all so much with me, just to get me to shut up! LOL. The situation sucks a bit. But, c'est la vie. Sometimes mixups happen, accidental or not, big businesses or little businesses, doesn't matter. If the product's not there, it's just not there - I know he can't make it just instantly show up to fill all of our whims every time we immediate ask (ohhhh, but sometimes, how I WISH!!! ) However, the way Rob's presented it to a corrective point, just makes me that much more sure that I'm putting the majority of my cigar-spending dollars in the right spot. Makes me want to buy that many MORE boxes. So......all you bastards get in line!!!!! I'll be buying (when able ) more and MORE of these now!!!!! LOL.
Colt45 Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 That's a low blow ........accurate......but low. Ahoy Mate! p-p-p-p-Pirate!
Colt45 Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 seriously? talk about compounding a bad situation. KG, can you see him - sitting outside on the new deck, feet up on the table, cigar clenched in smiling teeth.... Counting out his filthy lucre....

I wish to God it was just you...I wish to God it did not happen We have a new quarterback who threw me the ball and I dropped it. I let her down and the "fans". If a problem exists we will do our utmost to fix it. The Great Lise...Mrs "Fix It" is out injured so the responsibility falls on me. Received a text that Mrs "Fix it" is coming in Tuesday to specifically kick my arse. I can't wait for the lecture followed by the low right hook
CanuckSARTech Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 I may just have to pay Lisa to use a set of brass knuckles then!

Mistakl Posted December 2, 2011 Posted December 2, 2011 Just wanted to give some more praise for Diana, excellent communication through the hectic times! Czar is 1st class!
