I could be wrong, but Keeb, you did send to the original responders and then you ran out before you even cleared the first page right?
or,
did you really screw up and promise to give first come first serve, and later change your mind?
Why don't we see who you sent to? That would clear up everything. Keebie, your reputation is at stake here. You could go down as the guy who promised rare blanks, got everyone excited, and got premature 'em.
Guys, Keebie is a good guy, he is a bit young and he does have much to learn about life, but I can say from experience that he's alright, and if he did screw anyone, don't take it that way, that wasn't his intention.
This can all just be a lesson learned for everyone. Sometimes, it ain't as easy as you think.
Never changed my mind, it was first come first serve tho i did unfortunately miss a few…many of the first posters had messaged me also and sent payment while I was still on the rig.
I had
Joey B. (purchased for 2 people)
Bob Healey
Roger Swerd
Marcus Solt
Larry Vigus
David Popolizio
Dave Bushey
And two others from the original 2 pages in my tally book..(sherm & bluehogridr)
Trying to handle it offshore backfired as it was a bust week and I didn’t have the time to properly address everyone via PM, much less get back with everyone of the PM’s I had received. I had to delete messages out of my box 4 times just to be able to respond to some of the PM’s. Doing it out on the rig is what got me lost in the first place.
As far as I knew all the blanks were in good condition, possible runout but no idea there would be some chunks missing and holes in random places on 5 of the blanks. Upon seeing that I stopped everything not really knowing what to do.
As I had customers that were on the list that were supposed to get a good blank, not a f*kd up one.
I should have waited until I got home b/f getting with everyone….i was just a litte bit too impatient and “thought” (problem #1) when I should have figured to have some gaffed up pieces.
I figured everything would be just fine, didn’t expect to have anything out of the ordinary on the blanks….as if it were me selling them I would have noted the damages/hickies present in the blanks.
It all boiled down to me not being patient enough to wait a little longer b/f concluding the sale/distribution at my home instead of on an oil rig.
It upsets me very much b/c I really did want to have everyone get a nice piece at the end of the day and be happy. I’m upset b/c the person I purchased them from didn’t say anything about some of the blanks not being on the up and up. Basically I’m upset that I trusted the person’s word I bought the batch from, this along with my impatience lead to the last minute discovery of the problems with the blanks, which made me lose my sh*t and my head at the site and realization of the situation
I had PM’d one of the other members about my predicament but never heard back, that was when I said there were none left…..i was horribly embarrassed and shocked at the situation I basically put myself in.
It was an honest mistake and wish it would have worked out a little better.
Its not the other guys fault for not telling me about the damages, its mine for not waiting till i got home and had everything in front of me b/f proceeding to do business.
