A 5th of jack eh? I'd rather you come up with a jack flavored shisha, then you'd be on to something, and I'd probably never smoke anything but that ever again...

Well, to show my appreciation, thanks HookahUps for the samples you sent me a couple months ago. I tried to be as unbiased as I could be. You were definitely onto something with the apple, strawberry and the grape. I didnt dig the Melon-mint. I passed what was left onto a friend of mine when I gave her my 2nd hookah. With any luck she'll show up on the forums w/ a review for each of them.

IMO, this was a lot of bluster about nothing. I've been promised samples before, but I wasnt about to snub the vendor for business because the sample didnt show up. 1 sample in the hundreds he's probably sent out, someone might get stiffed. Just a risk you take as a vendor when you run a sample program.

Edit: It was hookahups not questions. My bad. Edited by Bulldog_916

I'm gonna make a pointless post to say I'm staying out of this one...(edit:maybe not)

edit:As in: There was a lot of drama over nothing here. I got the very first round blueberry...the one that his employee forgot to stir before mailing. Signed up for next one, but didn't get any. But, I don't mind. The guy was nice enough let me try his product and I appreciate it. He's busy and got his line hitting shelf.
I guess we all gotta sit and look at the situation in a feasible manner, rather than getting in an uproar like we would when we order something and it takes weeks for it to go out.

Thanks for that first round, btw questions, even though it wasn't strong, it was still good and from what I could tell...your stuff has some grand potential Edited by r1v3th3ad

Dude man, they're just samples. If you wanted to try out this stuff that bad, go buy a sample. Seriously, we're lucky they are vendors here that even send out samples.
oh yeah, thanks to questions for sending out samples.
i never asked for one, but I think he deserves a thanks for sending all of those samples.
and thanks to every other vendor who's sent out free stuff

The moral of the whole story is simple, don't send out free samples!

If anything at all goes even slightly wrong, the BS will haunt you forever, and in the end the vendor's attempt to let people know about a new product will end up costing far more than it could ever have benefited him. Save the money, and headaches.

Sort of fits that adage, no good deed goes unpunished.
