Well, after overwhelming response in my poll both on the thread and via PM's, Butchcole is being called out.

Here's the facts: I listed this sampler for sale a while back, two of them actually, and Schenker bought one and everything was perfect. Then on May 22 I rec'd a pm from Butchcole asking if this was still available, which it was. I wrote back and said I could get it out right away, to which he responded,
It may bre a couple days before I can get the MO to you, is that cool? But I'm more than good for it!

Cehck my stats out on any site, Herfers, CW, CP, I'm 100% if it was EBay!

I'll hget the Mo out to you ASAP. Give me you address as well.

Thanks man,
Butch

On May 24 I pm'd him the DC, 0103 8555 7497 3260 3576. This package was delivered May 26th.

I pm'd him again on the 2nd, asking if he got it (I obviosly knew he did) and if he had sent his $$ yet. To which I rec'd this response on June 4:
Been out of town for over a week, then had to go back. Got the smokes and the MO will go out this week, sorry for the delay but spent 6 days in California and my laptop crashed! I'll take care of you man, and again I apologize for not getting to you sooner! You shouldn't have had to ask for the MO!


Sorry again man, been freakin' crazy!


Butch

He has not logged on since June 4. I have sent him several more PM's as well as emails, and another member here who he lists as a reference has emailed him as well. Apparantly Butchcole is an editor for a magazine, so I don't believe he's somewhere that he doesn't have internet access or any other inability to check his email and see that he had 4 pm's and several emails from the site waiting for him.

Butch, if you forgot to send it, then were called out of town again, you could have called your wife and told her to send it. You could have emailed or pm'd me that you spaced out and forgot. Lack of communication coupled with lack of respect for other people's time (in this case waiting for your $$) has led to this.
 
WTF is going on around here lately.... come on Butchy.... make good on this.

Seems we have quite a few of this type of behavior lately between CP and CS.... this shit has to stop
 
If you want, I could drive down there and whoop some ass.

Maybe if a disgruntled person started calling his work it might get some attention :whistling:
 
For some reason, my computer won't let me log onto certain sites, like Wells Fargo, and Yahoo, so I haven't been able to email him directly again. I hope this problem logging on to those sites goes away soon.

And another thing, usually if someone has already made the decision to rip us off and never be seen again, they clean out their profile. So I think in this case he's just lazy and disrespectful.
 
I was in Montgomery last week, My in-laws live there.

Hmmm, I do know a hitman......
 
Butch used me as a reference.

My trade went swell with him and had no problem with him using me as a reference...Until now.

He needs to cut the bullshit and own up to his obligations.

I'm pissed...
 
Sorry to hear this Andy.

You put yourself out for a lot of people and do not deserve this
kind of treatment. :angry: I hope it gets sorted soon.

AVB scares me...Where do you find this information at? ??? :laugh:

Sorry to hear about this Gonz, hopefully everything will get set straight.
 
I'm quite sorry to hear this. I post rarely at CP, but try to stop by occasionally to check on what folks are smoking. I traded with Butch Cole quite recently at a trade he sought at HP. The trade was transacted very smoothly. I particpate on several cigar related BBSs and have never heard anything negative about Butch Cole. Somewhere some wires must have been crossed. I'm quite certain Butch travels extensively and, perhaps, some communications fell through the cracks. I'll PM him at HP and, hopefully, he'll see it and get his business finished here.
 
FWIW, I sent an e-mail to Butch at work (thanks AVB) asking for him to take care of business. Good luck, Gonz!

I dont care how busy someone is.
If they are that busy, they shouldn't get involved at all.
I totally agree Gonz, very disrespectful.

He better get his ass in gear and clear this up.
 
I know Butch travels alot. But how hard is it to buy an envelope,a stamp, and a money order? Even in a strange city this is possible...I've done it.
 
Not a good move, not good at all :angry:

I hope this gets straightened out quickly!
