mushrat Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 So he calls me at my bar last night....Apoparently our former member Bobby still reads the forums and cries to Neal when he sees something negative. Neal doesn't really trust him but called to ask me to confirm what Bobby told him. Which was inaccurate of course...HI BOBBY!So he wants me to give out his cell number to anyone who is missing a shipment they were BILLED for. If you put the order in and he hasn't gotten around to billing you then he'll get to it in a few weeks. If he HAS billed you then everythign has been sent out he CLAIMS.So, if you were billed, your shipm,ent is out, if you weren't billed yet, then he'll get around to filling your order when he's done driving around having a good time.I think its funny as hell that after the multiple threads on HIS forum about what an ASS I am etc, he calls up all buddy buddy to help clear things up for him.Fuck him.

xebra Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 That is lame.I contacted him about 9 times via Email, ning, the shop system, the forums and so on.No Reply.Please someone give me his phone number (I am definitely fed up, and calling him from Austria is damn expensive, especialy cellular to cellular) but I will do so.

mathuv Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 QUOTE (BohoWildChild @ Jul 12 2008, 04:33 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>See the thing is.... People have a tendency to jump on bandwagons as human nature. Someone seems to be into what you're into, offers you a little help, whatever. You seem to connect. But all you've seen is the surface. Friendship and trust take time. People earn the right to your trust when they have the opportunity to screw you and don't take it. Not before. And honestly.... I don't want to be friends with my vendors. I don't try and call Sam Walton if I go to Walmart to buy something. Why should I need to communicate with Mr. Joe Blow from Hookah Whatever? Run your business professionally as a business with decent customer service, send me what I paid for, and leave me the hell alone. I'm not your friend, I'm your customer for God's sake. My friends got that way over time and trust and earning the right into my life. You don't get there by selling me a kilo of shisha.'Rani+1Well turns out neal actually was another fly by night scheme.. or he just didnt want the government getting involved in his business, grew to large and they decided to stick their nose in and see where he was getting all this money from.. serves him right i guess for going against the law. was good whilst it lasted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoop Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 LOL@ taking Bobby seriously.the guy is crazy. I asked him (Bobby) to get me a bunch of stuff and after 2 months of asking him once in a while and never getting responses he attacks me for trying to go around his back and get the stuff from someone else... I'd take anything Bobby says with a grain of salt lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeypas Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 what's interesting about all of this, is that obviously to any reader of hookahforums, neal and his business do seem shady to say the least. I assume most avid forum users know this, yet while i called HC to inquire about a KM, they told me they dont ship to canada, but to try devilsplayground. I was surprised, because especially after reading all of the negative comments on this site. I dont know if the other major vendors keep up to date on the forums, but still surprised me that HC (with a very good rep) would refer a customer to neal (with a pretty foul rep) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hshah Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I ordered over the phone last Wednesday (9th July) and was told by Neal and Holly that my order was dispatched on Friday. They couldn't give me a tracking number because they were moving and they couldn't get WiFi access. Since I gave my card details over the phone, I have cancelled my card. If the order does arrive, I get free tobacco... if he doesn't arrive then I haven't lost anything.I have tried calling Neal and Holly today, but have had no luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hshah Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 Why the "oh dear"? I just cancelled my card as a precaution, but then I managed to get through to Holly who gave me the tracking number. If the order is fine, then of course I am going to tell him that I cancelled the card as a precautionary measure and give him the new card details...
