I'm sure they're busy & careful & discrete. Don't want to embarrass myself, the board, or the mods... /default_mellow.gif​ mellowing...growing up, etc. /default_cool.png
Omfg! BaaaaahahahagHahahahaFrom what I'm told, Hooter's, um, well, a real "force of nature", so to speak, so no packaging was necessary. From the feedback I've received from the vendor, it was a "direct end to end submission", shall we say. Had anyone been standing in the way within a mile or so, they'd likely have lost an eye! /default_laugh.png
Yes, let's all please NOT ruin the hard work that was done to solidify this. Patience has always been the key with this scene. I emailed once and will not email again until I get a reply.I'm sure they're busy & careful & discrete.

Nice catch on your edit, but unfortunately, I and the rest of the board still receive email alerts of original posts. As a result of "the cow having left the barn", I felt it appropriate to reply to your remarks. I can assure you that this vendor is MORE than "legit", as I have personally conducted business with them for more than a decade. I was also VERY clear in my introductory post that they are NOT a price point vendor, and in fact, that they were more expensive than Mexican vendors on some products, so I would recommend that you "not bother" with them, to borrow your words. It took literally months of effort to get this provider to agree to join DBG, and I'm now seeing posts like yours as well as receiving complaints from their patient care team regarding bizarre and inappropriate email messages, which I will expound upon in another post. Before posting comments such as these in the future, I would recommend reading the entire introductory post, and as far anyone having received from them yet, outside of myself and Heisenberg, who posted his experiences with Midtown, no, I'm sure no one has, as they just re-opened following a holiday shut down, and given that they were just introduced to DBG one week ago.so has anyone actually rec'd a package from these guys?

Again, please do not bother wasting your time with this vendor, and good luck in your endeavors.

I indicated that the "bizarre emails" would be addressed in a subsequent post, which they were, and do not involve you. I'm also not being hostile, but yes, both Heisenberg and I did indeed post about our experience with them, so the statement that no one has received from them and posted regarding same is incorrect. As for the tone of my message, what upsets me is that, as stated, your original post (despite being edited) still is sent out publicly via email alerts, and having read your comments, it's obvious that you did not read the introductory post. Further, I've known this vendor and its owner for many, many years, and value my reputation with them, so I take exception to complaints being posted regarding things like price point that were fully disclosed from the beginning. I also take exception to a public statement questioning any vendor's legitimacy after they have been vetted by Admin, Heisenberg and I. If you don't want to order from a vendor until you see feedback from other members having received, I can certainly respect and understand that, but to imply that a vendor might not be "legit" after one week on the board is insulting to Admin, Heisenberg and I, in my personal opinion anyway. It's a non-issue, as they will become a VIP only vendor going forward.no idea what u mean "bizarre emails" i sent a msg for a price list...no one has posted rec'd package from these guys
i dont get the hostile response from just asking a question ffs
MSD, it just proves the point that you can't fix stupid. If we lose this vendor, and JB loses credibility with said vendor due to morons who cannot conduct themselves properly, nor follow the most basic directions, I would hope all of the D-bags would be banned by Admin. That's getting off light IMHO. Just reaffirms my belief that most people suck. S-Oy. What is wrong with people? Why anyone would feel it's appropriate to use profanity with a brand new vendor, I'll never understand.
Good move to shift to VIP. Guess you know for next time.

I already think they should be banned. I sure don't want people like that on our board. Grrrrr.MSD, it just proves the point that you can't fix stupid.

Honestly, I only have myself to blame. Heisenberg recommended that I introduce this vendor as VIP only from the first time we discussed it, but no, my misguided sense of altruism prevailed in an attempt to help everyone. The next time you hear me contemplating such a thing, please, slap the shit out of me. /default_huh.pngMSD, it just proves the point that you can't fix stupid.

Well DZ, actually, the VIP is like Fight Club, so we don't talk about VIP, LOL. Unfortunately, I couldn't think of way NOT to mention it, given the circumstances and context of the post. All it is is an area of the board accessible only to those with a certain number of posts.Seriously? How difficult is it to send an e-mail to someone, asking questions, using real words, no profanity, and a little respect? Honestly, people? We are all human beings and should treat others just the same - what makes you think that you can say sexist remarks to someone that you do not even know - someone that is doing their job, which is customer service - to you! From what I have seen, they provide some pretty stellar customer service. But no, people have to go and demand products 'right away' - as if these people are their bitches...they aren't. We were lucky to have this opportunity. Were.
And you know what? I didn't even know that there was a VIP section. Psh. I feel so left out. /default_sleep.png
Feel free to call me a conspiracy theory type person... but it would not surprise me if at least some of the said fools made their idiotic emails to this vendor on purpose; intent being to burn the vendor off the board.Honestly, I only have myself to blame.

You very well may be right sir. It matters not, however. They don't need the business, and never did. They've done quite well for 15 years without a presence on ANY board, and I know they'll be just fine in the future.Feel free to call me a conspiracy theory type person... but it would not surprise me if at least some of the said fools made their idiotic emails to this vendor on purpose; intent being to burn the vendor off the board.
Maybe board rivalry, vendor rivalry, IDK.... but a pre-k child would be able to follow and obey the simplistic conditions and requests you made of the members regarding their communications and conduct with with vendor. Just my opinion. S-
I'm sure you're right. But it still upsets me that we have people here who would act in such a manner. We should all be embarrassed. I'm sure you know who they are, also. Is Admin unwilling to take action because it happened off the board? I personally think it's relevant as we should have all been vetted in order to get a menu. Right?You very well may be right sir.

Can I have some of your posts, Jewy? You seem to have a lot. I want to be that thing that is not spoken of.Well DZ, actually, the VIP is like Fight Club, so we don't talk about VIP, LOL.
